    Jordan Willis

    Willis stayed with us when he could have jumped ship when we were struggling then helped us turn things round. He also scored a blinder at Wembley which helped start us off on our play off victory so I wish him well. I disagree with those that don't think he could have played in the Championship...

    Match Thread ⚽️ Reading vs Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 10th Dec

    I think if one of Rose, Doyle and Panzo get injured as well as Fadz that MR might give 4 at the back a go. In a few games earlier in the season when we were chasing games he took Fadz off to play 4 at the back, so I think he just doesn't see it as a viable option if Fadz is in the team.

    Mike Ashley Takeover …Ready and Waiting

    He might not be interested in CCFC, who really knows? If he wants his ownership of ACL to be successful however, then he will need to incorporate them into his plans regardless. The more successful CCFC are, the higher the profile that is then reflected on the venue, and the more likely it is to...

    Burnley to bid for Vik

    You're looking at it as a fan. Unfortunately SISU are not fans and will not view this situation like you do.

    Doug King Takeover

    Yes, I'm amazed SISU even gave him the time of day. We've certainly attracted our share of weird bidders over the years what with Dhinsa, Alki David, Dale Evans and now Storey.

    Doug King Takeover

    Fair enough, King certainly seems a strange one given he has no obvious recorded history of interest in football let alone CCFC, unlike the other possible protagonists we know of like Ashley, Hoffman, McEvoy/ Dawkins, or even the nutter Storey who seem to have had a history of interest in CCFC...

    Why was he openly trying to buy Derby then?

    Promising Houllier might be a tad over the top however much of a chancer he might be!!

    Doug King Takeover

    This whole business makes little sense to me. Why on earth would SISU have signed an exclusivity deal with him, or anyone else for that matter? If SISU were prepared to sell up surely they could have brokered a better deal by publicly stating the club were for sale and setting up bidders against...

    Ball 13 in F.A cup

    A winnable home game is a good tie for us. Their decent support will help fill the coffers as will the prize money for getting to the 4th round. If we can't sell 10,000 to our own fans then I would question whether our fans really deserve us to go any further however, but hopefully we will and...

    Winnable home draw would do for me

    Doug King Takeover

    So even if he wants to stay to the end of the season you would want to sell him in January?

    Gyokeres

    Obviously it is in our interests for him to sign a new deal, but if Gyokeres had as negative a mindset as you portray I don't think he'd be half the player he is.

    Stop the clock

    Surely if it was cut and dried, ie the clock only runs when the ball is in play, then there is little room for argument. Much less than now anyway, when it is much more arbitrary, depending on the whim of a ref as to whether he wants to add time on or not.

    WBA fans boycott for our game

    So is this a full on boycott, or an attempt to start one by a few disgruntled souls? I would expect them to bring 2000 regardless, and if they get a couple of good results before they play us maybe more.

    Mike Ashley Takeover …Ready and Waiting

    Surely Ashley is more likely to make money out of the arena by having a successful football club operating out of it? The more successful the club, the more attention the arena gets. That is why I find it hard to believe that at some point he will not want some control over it to help achieve...
