Why have you ignored the bit about what it says on Reading's website ? Would his current employers/parent club not know more than anyone else ?

and again he is out of contract with them in the summer !! The OS have stated it a few times, the READING website says he is on a deal until summer 2010 so they should know shouldnt they ? It is not unreasonable that AP does not know the ins and outs of contracts of players we have on loan, he doesnt deal with that side of things does he !

Yes he is....all this Reading will want him back talk is irrelevant. Its his choice, he will be a free agent.

Very true....but be careful, you will be accused of being a happy clappy

I said at the start of the season, although someone who couldn't get their head around what I meant argued the toss, that to reach the play offs we needed 2 or maybe 3 teams to rip this League up and get a bag full of points. Unfortunately with the exception of Norwich nobody has really done that. When Leeds went off the boil all the top teams became much of a muchness, nobody pulled away so they all took points off each other and that obviously increased their points totals in the top six which made it that much harder for us. I'm amazed really that with 3 games left we still have a mathmatical chance of reaching 6th place. It shows how well we really have done especially after having to carry out our pre-season within the first 5 league games !

I fail to see why so many cannot get their heads around this ! Our pre season was the first four or five League games this season, thats what ultimately cost us....and that is nobodys fault....well, nobody that is at the club now anyway

I think the "we can still do it" rallying call has come too soon and does look a bit OTT. IF Huddersfield lose tomorrow and we win then by all means start screaming it from the rooftops cos its game on again and as has already been noted we would actually be 1 point closer to them than could have been expected. But poor old Stockport can barely raise a team, Huddersfield know if they win and hold off Colchester next week they are in the top six. The chances of anything but an away win at Stockport tomorrow are very very slim.

TCWTB holding posters that ask Fit and Proper ? The answer to both is NO, he is not, in any way, shape or form. Thank God when we were in trouble we had and have nobody like that to act as a figure head. Frightening, truly frightening.

Quite amusing that the guy from their supporters club was on Sky Sports News a while ago and asked where the additional £50 million had come from as they were told it was a debt of £70 million originally !! Ummm, it hasnt come from anywhere mate, it was probably always there but Storrie, Jacobs and a selection of different owners didnt like to say what the true amount was !! Jeez...

Your Dad and his mates are spot on. The best one that counted however was the Channon v. Liverpool one without doubt.

Excellent, that would really screw them up !

Me too !

Despite the fact that this is pretty much true they hate being reminded of it and wont accept it.......whenever I ask the question "who else came to your aid back then?" the answer is always a mumbled "well, ah...."

Indeed, that was his parting shot, his final act of petulance and two fingers up to all of those who hated his guts. Just one week earlier and we would have been fine this season. I will believe to my dying day that he did it on purpose and nothing will ever convince me otherwise.

There goes a kettle closely followed by a pot, both black

Interesting that AP keeps mentioning him and praising him. Said he was back to full fitness too, which is excellent. As you say he is too good for 5 minutes. I think he will start on the bench but I would expect him to get at least a half hour on Tuesday. Probably take Barnard off like he usually does.

Thsi would be an excellent way for you to prove it then !

Its actually longer than the 100 minutes stated on the cover, you get plenty of celebrations and interviews. I think from memory it runs to nearly 114 minutes.

He was ! Hence their supporters dis-like of him. If he had just been treated badly by the club the fans would not dis-like him so much.

There are an awful lot of assumptions that we will win all 5 games. We should do, looking at the fixtures, but football doesnt work like that very often unfortunately.

no, they need 5 points from 3 games to be sure.

I know its not the last 5 years but some have already mentioned him so for me its Stuart Ripley. Never wanted to be here, had one decent game and was utter ****e the rest of the time but thought he was Mr Wonderful. Was never a fan of Mark Hughes either but least he got stuck in.

I would love for you to be right !

Why not, Glasgow is closer to Liverpool than Southampton is !
