That is bollocks! Why the hell are we paying £200 more each for a season ticket? Why are the the club getting vastly more TV revenue?
Answer: To gain more funds to take the club forward and part of that is strengthening the team! Don't give me the crap that we can't afford £3m on a player coz thats bullshit! We need to buy a defender and striker FACT!
I'm fucked off that we got promoted in April and since then we have bought 2 players for a combined total of £2m! Sodjie is shit and Seol is hardly fantastic. It's a bloody disgrace!

It's a bloody disgrace! you seriously need to start taking your pills again cav, cause your in danger of bursting a blood vesle in your eye or something yeah of corse we can afford to mate, but paying £4mil for another untested player is just stupid, yes we need to get a new striker and defender but whats the point in doing a Warnock and just buying anybody who is on the market just for the sake of it??? if you wanna talk about the whole taking the club forward, and where the season ticket and TV money is going.........have a wee think about the fuck off stadium expasion were planning, they aparently cost a few bob these days Mr C has got it all under control mate, if the rite player is there for the rite price we WILL buy them, simple........why change the whole ethic of how our side has been run for the last 4odd years (that has got us where we are btw) just for the sake of some transfer gossip and movement?

Finally nab that keeper. Another one for the future at 18 but I have been doing a bit of digging and he looks class news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/r/reading/6303353.stmFrom our website - Reading Football Club have completed the signing of goalkeeper Mikkel Andersen from AB Copenhagen. The 18-year-old, who is the youngest goalkeeper to have played first team football in Denmark's top flight, has signed a two and a half year contract after the clubs agreed an undisclosed fee. Director of Football Nick Hammond told readingfc.co.uk, "He's a really talented young goalkeeper who has great size and presence for such a young man. "He also has an excellent attitude and work ethic so he's got every chance of enjoying a successful career." Mikkel is well known to his new teammates after a trial period with the Royals, who clinched his signing despite interest from a number of leading European clubs. He told us, "I'm absolutely delighted, this is a great club and I hope to play here for many years. "The whole atmosphere at this club is special, there are people here who really made it for me, that was a big thing." Meanwhile, young professionals Pierre Joseph-Dubois and Curtis Ujah have left the Club after being released.

Clinton Morrison?!?!?!?! From SS - Crystal Palace striker Clinton Morrison has said he will stay with the club providing he can gain a more regular place in the squad. The 26-year-old has struggled to hold down a regular place in boss Peter Taylor's squad, but insists he will fight to make the team rather than head for the exit. Rumours have arisen linking Morrison with a move to Reading, but the striker is keen to remain at Selhurst Park, saying: "I'll stay if I play. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The above should not be in my 'amusing transfer rumours' thread because it is anything but amusing. It is scary!

My sentiments exactly. 8th in the Prem with a team that cost under £2m to put together. We are staying up this season there is no need to panic buy. We will get that massive payout in the summer and start looking then.
