Re: New Owners - Redwood Watch

MouldyRoyal Musk would not be positive news!

Watching that clip, it sounds positive. Investors but not going to suddenly start breaking the bank. That's the right way imo

Re: New Owners - Redwood Watch

I am probably wrong, but it almost feels like Rob has brokered a deal for Aliya to eventually takeover the club.

Re: Squad for 2025-2026

Some chap on x @OliB_RFC is claiming all is not well behind the scenes. Reckons RC is not being honest in terms of us having a top 6 budget. He has over 7k followers and has been right about a couple of things. My expectations are realistic tbh, so I’ll be happy with a top half finish next season. I...

Has Craig signed a new deal?

Re: Rumour - the Yak back

It’s a no from me. I don’t want us to start recruiting former players. Yaks is a great person, but I can’t help thinking we’d end up regretting signing him. I want to see the same recruitment as in the summer of 2023. I want us to sign players like Savage and Elliott and be pleasantly surprised. Hun...

Re: Rumour - Semi Ajayi

morganb Hull City are closing in on their second summer signing of the Sergej Jakirovic era, with experienced defender Semi Ajayi on the cusp of arriving.


Gutted we’ve missed out on Semi, he’d have been rock solid for our defence.

I am delighted Pereira is staying, but I don’t think Mbengue will. I think we have Ajayi lined up, but no idea about anyone else.

Re: Next seasons kit choice?

If what I have seen is genuine the solid blue hoops have gone. There’s still blue hoops, but in what looks like a paisley style pattern. I didn’t see any flowers as has been rumoured.

Re: Rumour- Chem Campbell permanent

A good pal associated with the Wolves academy said Chem never 100% recovered from his injury last season and that affected his performances.

Re: Speculation - Nathan Lowe

Could do worse than try to get Stoke’s Nathan Lowe on a season loan. Did wonders in the L2 last year so would benefit player and club to be assessed at a higher level Yeah, he’d be a really good signing. There’s also a lad who plays for Burton (can’t remember name) who looked a real handful when we...

The buyback clause in the contract will mean Dai will one day lead us back to the Prem.

Re: Are Reading fans unfairly critical of black players?

I did hear Garcia’s interview and I thought he sounded fine. He’s a young lad and probably hasn’t had much or any media training. When I go to games I see the players wearing the shirt and race doesn’t come into the equation for me. I just want them to try their best for the team. I try not to be to...

Re: Low point of the Dai era

The takeover collapsing in September 2024 for me. I never really took the deal to buy Bearwood seriously, but probably should have done. Also, Dai running around the pitch was odd.
