From inside the club..

A Manager who has never been a professional footballer doesn't command the same respect. Selles only played for his University. The fans & majority of players at Hull & Reading thought he waa a joke. We all know our owners have spent a their money just buying us so they chose Selles because he has a Masters degree in sport subjects. So hes intelligent but that doesn't guarantee a good manager. The vast majority of fans knew it was a dangerous appointment but the owners know even less about Championship football than Selles does. We're an unlucky club.

So you know the majority of fans and players of both Reading and Hull to come up with that conclusion regarding Sellés? With me living in the next major town to Reading I know quite a few Reading supporters and they are ALL of the opinion that he was a very good manager for them. More importantly my near neighbour is a first team regular for Reading and we meet up at the odd social event and speaking to him only last week, the players thought he was brilliant and sorry to see him leave. That alone shoots down your claim.

Robinson was fully fit yesterday but has had a bust up with the coaching staff and wants to leave.

Cooper currently operating at about two third fitness, issues with his knee, he is not doing full training and is having injections to play. May need an op going forward but is playing through it as we have no real cover

Split in the dressing room over Selles already Robinson, Peck, Burrows are the unhappiest with tactics O’Hare also not convinced.

With all due respect, this sounds made up.

He spent yesterday on the CB's toes , he's an overweight lad who can't keep his temper and gets far too many bookings
BUT
he knows he can produce sublimely talented moments so will never get dropped and can coast along with us , never sorting his fitness or his temper , drawing a nice wage and having a chilled life.

I can't work out from yesterday's non-performance and ridiculous tackle for their first goal ,
whether he's now dropped to a level where he's just taking the piss out of SUFC a la Lunnycunt
Or
whether he's suddenly discovered 'ambishun' and sorted out a deal at a club where he'll actually have to get off his arse.

I normally just read threads and say nowt. However, regarding Hamer... I think he's a great player... but talk to anyone who works behind a bar in the flashy places on Eccie Road and they'll tell you that he's a regular. Likes his shots and his beer. I reckon that's why he hasn't fulfilled his true potential (yet). If he could add a bit of discipline and focus to his life then he'd be a top, top player. I hope he can do that with us. But I'm not sure that he will.
