wellbeaten-the-owl Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 2 minutes ago, Inspector Lestrade said: No doubt other clubs gets criticised and moaned about but that's irrelevant. The sponsor pulled out partly due to the negativity of our fan base. They were looking at our fan base not Readings. It's not an argument can win, the negative reaction to this will if anything prove point he is making. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Errol Flashman Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 We're gonna buy the ground lads, bobs coming round with a hat. Put in what you can. 3 Just a bloke.

S36 OWL Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 33 minutes ago, @owlstalk said: CHANSIRI ON THE FANS AGAIN My people say the fans say they tried to help us with the decision, we were not slow. It was because if we could sell a player it could help. We were talking with the EFL. A long, long time. It took too long and then they said we can’t do that or do this. If we can’t do that or this then they need to tell us what we can do. They should support the club.. He just can't help himself can he. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalthamOwl Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Let’s hope the players haven’t been keeping up to date with this! Can’t imagine they will take to kindly to some of the things said. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why’s he given them so much time if it’s just a minority? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@owlstalk Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 CHANSIRI CALLING STEVE BRUCE A LIAR "I’m just disappointed that he didn’t tell me the truth. If he’d told me the truth I would’ve supported him, why was the need to lie?" 1 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inspector Lestrade Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 Just now, RockieOwl said: So Reading are different then. They can attract sponsorship irrespective of any negativity they have, but we have to shut up and do as we are told so that we can get sponsorship The sponsorship they attracted might not have took into the fanbase social media or didn't place as much importance on it as the potential sponsor we were talking to. Two different entities why compare them? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sova Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 14 minutes ago, Pingu said: We're probably a similar level to Southampton, Cardiff, Blackburn, Sheff Utd and Birmingham these days. We wish we could be on Southampton's level! And not just because they happen to be 5th in the Premier League right now: they've spent the vast majority of the last 45 years in the top division, and quite often they've finished in the top 10. They have a fantastic youth set-up and regularly average crowds of around 30,000. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzlebeak Posted November 5, 2020 Share Posted November 5, 2020 3 minutes ago, McRightSide said: Well...from what I could gather the following was said - plans to continue supporting Monk for the time being - looking to the government and EFL for support for clubs otherwise it’s hard to plan, because football is dead otherwise - he will continue to support the losses for the foreseeable future - if we do find ourselves in a position to make a run at the play offs in January, then we might look at strengthening I would suggest - in the middle of a disasterous global pandemic - those can be considered the makings of a plan But let’s be real, no-one knows what’s going to happen in the next couple of months So he's been here 5 years and now has the makings of a plan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
