W&E Royal If we go up then he'll stay, why would he go? If we stay down then he'll go, why would he stay?

Ian RoyalRoyalee Hopefully he'll go in the summer regardless and we can bring in someone like Martinez who is young, hungry and ambitious.
How did I know you were going to say something stupid like that, as soon as I saw your name as the last response?
Does it gall you that in his 6 seasons Coppell will have taken us to our 4 highest league finishes ever?

Royalee Coppell's had more resources than any other Reading manager in the club's history by a country mile, people forget that. Madejski is the reason we are where we are today, not Coppell. If Man City win the title and Champions League in the next five years after spending the most they've ever done in their history by a street, it won't make Mark Hughes the best manager in the club's history - what a stupid thing to say.

Reading will offer manager Steve Coppell a new contract, even if he fails to win promotion back into the Premier League at the first attempt.
Coppell was on the verge of resigning when Reading were relegated, but fans signed a petition urging him to stay.
His contract expires in the summer and director of football Nick Hammond said: ‘As yet we haven’t had any discussions about a new contract for Steve, but we will.
'It’s not him or us dodging the issue.’

TBM If we dont go up this season i hope we get someone else in......Coppell is a very good manager BUT if we dont go up then its because he's doing exactly what he did to us last season, by not changing things around and staying too loyal to some of the players.

dunno how you can possibly say that after the number of times he has changed things round, and put new, or younger players in the team this season

Im talking about getting rid of the deadwood and bringing in fresh players and dropping players when they are not performing (ie Harper & Hunt)

Thaumagurist* And how is Coppell meant to get rid of the deadwood and bring in fresh players while the transfer window is shut?!

TBM Im talking about IF we dont go up.......there is no excuse not to keep 2nd place, if we fail then its due to Coppell making the wrong decisions. That's all i meant by my comment.

how do you know? its not happened!
and all i meant is that, it seems at least to me, that coppell has been much less inclined to stick withm players, than he did last year
so it seems odd to moan about is currently
and what deadwood?
enough with this harper and hunt bashing, they are neither dead, nor wood
