MBE

To be fair mate I’ve not watched him play since his Solihull days. His record on loan at Wimbledon is not good reading and that’s is the only EFL experience he has. Not a profile of player we require for me.

Feel like we dodged a bullet.

100% needs punishment no place for that at a football match but he was not violent. Angry yes but no violence.Look at the way he was restrained with one hand by Crosby……unless Crosby is next level ninja doing Steven Segal skills which look sedate but are really very violent.

100% disagree. It’s still a criminal offence regardless of motivation. I also don’t agree he was going to be violent, whats more concerning is the ease which he entered the pitch. Pitch invaders could be carrying anything and it’s a real safety issue. Anyway sorry transfer rumours…….

See above mate. It’s not right. We can’t pick and choose to apply a law because it suits us to.

Point is individuals who entered the pitch committed a criminal offence. The law is either applied or not. What we are basically saying is if you go on the pitch en mass it’s Ok but if your an individual you will get banned. That’s not right.

Entering the field of play is a criminal offence regardless the reasons why.

What about all of those Reading fans?

I agree BUT if we can’t compete financially at this level why do the club not say it? It’s because it’s not true. We have had a middle of the road budget for this league but there is a huge disparity between us and the top 6 in budget. I’m more than OK with that. What we have is a wasted budget, a DOF who is full of <ovf censored>.

Great another young inexperienced lad. Just what we need.

The club must surely move position on the signings front from last week, This squad as it stands will get relegated, relying on other teams kids to compete and our own kids to change the game from the bench with no goals in the team is a recipe for disaster.

Agree. I think we are being quite arrogant with our approach. Perhaps a reflection of the DOF’s personality but either way this squad will get relegated without strengthening with a few senior players. A Gibbo type of character is missing on the pitch and Bodvarsson would have been an ideal replacement for Uche.

The point of the academy is to develop players to fill out your squad and hopefully develop them into 2st teamers to sell them on for good money. There is no pot of good selling youth players not on professional terms. It’s just money to make it a self alone business . I have no idea what you’re trying to say about paying off Smurf .Do you no think that money is not been invested to get us to this point with the pitch ?

Can we please stop this narrative where’s the money . The club made a 1 million loss to get promotion despite getting to Wembley and the record shirt sales. How much do you think we lost without getting to Wembley with largely the same squad last season? Uptick in attendances did not cover it. As for academy sales, that money is put back into the academy budget so it’s self funding and doesn’t require additional investment . This has been stated over and over again by Will Ryder and Flicker.

Why aren’t we in for him😂😂

I would snap your hand off but we have no chance with Wrexham and Oxford chasing him.

Tom Conlon. Successive managers didn’t think he was L1 standard. Move on like he has.

If he can create publicity and interest in the club to increase revenues then it’s a great move which will benefit the us Maybe we could get a Netflix documentary from it?

I only watched until it went 2-0 then switched it off as the game was over at that point. Certainly up to 2-0 I thought Boro did ok apart from the stupid passing from the GK. I think it’s Morgan with the big chance at 0-0 for Boro which they didn’t take, if went in it would have made it a very different game. Shame really from a spectacle viewpoint.

Sorry to go back to a previous point earlier this week but…. From the kick off tonight Man City kicked it directly to the GK and he kicked long. If it’s good enough for Pep it will do for me.

I have my doubts about Hudlin. I expect us to go in a different direction with the Striker rather than a big lad to hold the ball up. With Weir and Gore coming into the team I expect us to revert back to more build up play rather than being a little more direct to Uche. Just me reading between the lines.

I really feel it would be beneficial for you to do a deep dive into club and re-evaluate your expectations. Questioning where money has gone and your striker suggestions tells me you have missed what’s been going on for the past 3 years or your not listening.

Do you not think the current squad is enough to stay up?

Never say never mate.

Where does that leave Grant? He's been underwhelming for me, so if he's ousted by a loan this window can see him moving on in the summer (think he's under contract?) He’s not going to be ousted. It’s going to be a young lad with his 1st loan who will be cover and provide a change of pace 2nd half if needed.
