well that made my day! we have a real shot at going up, unless, god forbid the new guy proves to be a good manager. i dont see the point in sacking adkins though! the saints are performing fairly well and are out of the relegation zone!

The Rouge Glad I support Reading with this kind of crap around.


100% this. Whatever happens this season at least we have stability, we're slowly building, and we are highly unlikely to go into free fall.


Tbf we've freely fallen already.

4/7 favourite. Would expect he'd hold on for something better though.

Big Ern What utter tools Southamton are :lol:

Adkins for me was a person I took an instant dislike to, for no reason I just found him annoying, but you cannot argue about the job he was doing.

This appointment will hopefully see Southampton capitulate, and after the actions of their board, they will deserve it.


Yes there was something annoying about him - started off when he gave us no credit for winning the league last season; don't think he deserved this though.

Hate Adkins. Ridiculously smug and annoying, but undeniably a brilliant manager. He had just earned a 2-2 draw away against the European Champions, and had a relegation threatened side in 15th with decent form to show for it.
I'll be honest I did think we should've sacked BM in December when we lost 7 on the trot, but now I'm very glad we didn't.
Things like this show how well Reading is run as a club.

SPARTA Cortese:"Mauricio is a well-respected coach of substantial quality who has gained a reputation as an astute tactician/excellent man manager"

They already had that.
:| The same Mauricio who took Espanyol bottom and was subsequently sacked :?:

Genuine chuckle but this is good news from a RFC perspective. Not surprised though given the reputation Nicola Cortese has.
