RFC106

We have been shit all season and it's amazing what a change of manager can do. Obviously it will take a while for him to get all of his ideas across but the signs were good Friday. None of this passing around the back bollox and we had a lot more aggression in midfield. I would take a draw and beat Preston on saturday

We spent hardly any money when in the Prem. Wages weren't that high either.

Thanks :o) We had just been relegated so had enough cash in the bank. I'm sure they borrowed money against the parachute payments from Vibrac, no one knows where the parachute payments went if I remember correctly. Look, I personally don't trust him and his name is mud down our was as well as at Everton. I never trusted him the first time I saw him speak.

From my understanding as a Reading fan, Samuelson came in as the front man for the Russians when they took over but demanded to be on the board when they did so. He re-financed us by getting a loan from Vibrac in order to pay wages, and when he left (booted out) we were left with a huge bill just for dealing with them and for trying to close the account (we never even needed Vibrac) He tried to come back with an American consortium, and although they were a lot wealthier than the Thais we have now, we chose the Thais over ever having this man involved in our club again. There is too much smoke about Samuelson for there not to be some fire.

Sorry to see you wend down this season. I am a Reading fan and was hoping to partake in the Samualson discussion as I have some points I would like to raise. Hopefully I get accepted, if not then I wish you all the best for next season.
