    I don't see what Rupp showing "he actually cares" has do with anything.

    The players of limited technical ability are from the same pool other L2 clubs get their players from. As we have a good budget at this level - certainly Top 7, I don't get these complaints about lack of investment.

    If you mean you'd like to see Rupp spend £300K on a player, then I get you - but is that really important?

    It's the scattergun nature of the recruitment ever since Rupp took over that's been the problem, far more than the investment.

    No I'd have been more suprised if he had got on a plane.

    Hes not interested he can't make it any clearer.

    When was he last at a game, when if ever will he be again

    Just listened to the six minute segment of his presser.
    Still can’t believe Mark (Sparks) has pulled this off ;-)

    If he brings Bellamy as his assistant, then 2 years from now, steps aside and moves upstairs then I'm all for it.
    Their has to be a plan for continuity if or when he decides he's had enough.

    Time we started thinking like a big L2 club. Lets hope we continue into the summer transfer window.

    If this ends in tears then Sparks has to resign. His last throw of the dice.

    You missed Bunty then?

    There were some great ones though , we digress. Victor was great, Hornet and your two…Never got into the Eagle though…far too Sci-Fi for me from memory

    I don't get the dissing that Songo gets. I'd like Hughes to play him in his proper position, which is a CDM for more than four or so matches on the trot.

    On a different scale, people were delighted when Doyle went - until of course he found his form at Swindon, Bolton, i.e. everywhere but here.

    FCD has shown nothing more than Songo, but we'll give him the benefit of the doubt, because he wasn't the former managers favourite but not players who are proven to be good and might just do better under Hughes.

    If you mean player recruitment…that’s not his job, never has been.

    Songo'o ( a professional sportsman) cannot kick a football with his left foot hence why he gets pelters. He is a liability and needs to go.

    Don’t remember that one Tallin. Strange because I had three rounds.

    I’ll search it out, thanks for the tip.

    Not really. In the day of the internet I doubt it's necessary. Might save a bit of the planet too.

    He has two folks that usually go with him.

    It was interesting he said only one was coming in though so maybe he'll bring one of the usual two?

    Bowen left Reading in August 2020 so appears to be free, not sure about Eddie N., seems to have left at the same time?
