My next door neighbour is a plastic and I agree totally with Batch.

...on a job releated note.
I see Reading have just given their manager the boot.
Watford fans must be chuckling to themselves over that. Think he ditched them only after a few months. |

I like Byrne. He mixes it with the working class in the legends lounge before games  Hes a regular at the Carvery kiosk thing. |

I spoke to him yesterday afer the reserve match and there is no chance he is leaving.He has just signed a 2 year contract and loves it here,even if they offer it to him he would turn it down.

I think Rodgers would have come good at Reading eventually. They'll regret the decision one day. The front runner for the manager's job now seems to be Darren Ferguson.
Reading are slowly returning to earth after the Madejski-led boost given to them 10-15 years ago. Of course, I would love it if we were able to match their crowds, but the buzz there is not as loud as it used to be. Take a walk around Reading these days and the Reading FC shirts are noticeably outnumbered by London Irish shirts.
I'm also amazed at the hostility now shown by many of their fans to Madejski for his 'failure to invest' during the last few years. Breathtaking ignorance. Madejski's ties with Reading FC will loosen further over the next few years, I'm sure...and then they'll miss him.

Glad to hear Budgie's staying and not surprised to hear he wants to. His affection for the club is genuine and don't think anyone could doubt the loyalty and commitment he's shown. But if he does change his mind, on Nam or another job, I think we'd all wish him the very best of luck. Done a great job here

Every piece of bad news, Reading related, makes me very happy indeed. My mate's cousin is a plastic and he's the most arrogant Swindon slating fat little cunt ever.
I remember going out with him in around Jan, the season they were relegated from the Prem, and listened to him wax lyrical about how amazing they were. He even said things along the lines of "too good/big to be relegated." The lack of text messages coming from him at the end of that season was so sweet.

Darren Ferguson has probably been lurking around a Reading hotel waiting for this decision for the last few weeks.

All seems a long way from the days of their planned 40,000+ stadium expansion plans and the missive indicating they regarded Swindon as part of their catchment.

I think what we should be concerned with is if Nigel Worthington get's any of the managerial jobs vacant then I suspect that Wilson will become one of the top contenders for the NI managers job - and if that was offered would he fancy a crack at international management for his country ?

I have a friend who follows Northern Ireland home and away and I recall him saying that Danny Wilson had a funny habit of being "injured" for games that weren't of great importance Perhaps Danny wouldn't be a great appointment... Give it to Jimmy Quinn instead. |
