Re: Kadan Young

Happy with this signing, although it’s a shame we don’t have anyone in our own academy who can step up.

He looks to be quick, direct and physically strong. Obviously, not the finished article, but he wouldn’t be coming to us if he was.

Re: The window closes at 7pm on Monday 2nd February

I think Savage stays and Garcia leaves. I am hoping we can get another winger, or someone like Knibbs who was really effective at the high press. Another winger to go with: Ehihbhatiomhan, Kyerewaa, Williams, Lane, Ritchie, Camara, Osho etc? How many should a club need? Been told Kyerewaa and Willi...

That chap from the Chronicle who only yesterday dismissed Brogue’s post is trying to claim the glory for knowing about Nyambe. :D

Re: a RB and a LB signings imminent

I hope Brogue is right as we urgently need some pace at the back. However, I have no faith in JJ’s ability to get deals done.

Jack Hunt has just been released by Stockport. Were we going to sign him before Hunt was sacked?

Re: The curious case of a missing CEO

I hope he’s left or he’s been locked away until he can find a decent LB.

Re: Rumour- return of the Mc…… intyre

It’s a no from me. I just want a proper young LB with pace. There’s one at Bromley who’s been mentioned on x and he sounds decent.

Re: Rumour - Victor Adeboyejo

He is set to sign for Mansfield. I guess we can’t compete financially with other EFL clubs.

Re: You can’t say I didn’t warn you!

I think Brogue is entitled to his opinions and to be sceptical about the new owners, especially after the shitshow of the last few years. I suspect that when DY sold the club to RC a proportion of money was held back by RC to cover any unforeseen liabilities etc. Rob was here for a court case late l...

No idea if good or bad, but Redwood Holdings Ltd are also late filing their accounts. Hopefully, this is all just a storm in a tea cup.

Re: The inevitable poll for the next Reading manager

I would like Wellens, but I’m certain it’ll be Bloomfield. He was a strong candidate at Blackpool and then he withdrew from the recruitment process. Ian how is Harris doing at Cambridge?

Re: MATCHWATCH : Leyton Orient (h)

Confident of a 3-1 win.

Basically, I can’t see Orient having enough quality to beat us. We’re the best team in League One and we’ll demonstrate that tomorrow.

Re: New Owners - Redwood Watch

Slight Robbie Keane vibes in his statement. However I will give him a chance - no one seems to know too much about him so we'll just have to wait and see how his involvement pans out. I hope he doesn't turn up in a pair of cowboy boots with a big belt buckle though. We could have rodeos during the ...

Re: 3 more signings

I reckon that Cheek lad at Bromley would be a smart, low cost option. Scores bucket loads, experienced and presumably hard as nails after so long slugging it out against non league beefcake CBs. Some players hit their peak in their 30s. Get him on a 2 year deal and he'll be just shy of his 35th bir...

blythspartan Is there any more news about signing another striker?


Still told we have a big man lined up.


Thanks Brogue! You’ve been spot on with so many signings this season. I have even enjoyed the speculation of the ones that haven’t come to fruition yet.
