SPARTA


Another helicopter landed by Reading rail station a couple of hours ago.
A group of blokes wearing WW2 russian uniforms are gathering outside the civic offices.

The elections results tomorrow will clearly show that the electorate here want to be part of mother Russia.
I knew it all along. The Ukraine was just a decoy. Berkshire is what Putin really craved.

OMG :o You mean Reading has been Rodina all along?? This is indeed a troubling development, but it could be the Russki's biggest mistake, launching a direct assault on the base of the Thames Train Crew (just out of interest, after the franchise change did they become the First Group F*ck*rs?).

I'm not ITK, never claim to be. I speak with a few people offline who are, and these guys are the American's. I would always suggest you take everything with a pinch of salt. Just because we have guests, it doesn't mean anything is close. We had two choppers land after xmas, and here we still are.

Perhaps the "derisory" offer is that little bit less "derisory" now?

Perfectly possible they offered £x with only a small add on for the possibility of promotion, and SJM decided to take the worthwhile gamble (as I debated with E-P early April) on the mutually acceptable basis that the deal would / could be revisited after the end of the season when the club's league for 2014/15 was known.

So SJM lost the gamble (he's getting used to that).

So if the people you know are so ITK, why is your record so poor when you're just passing that on?

Today's visitors are indeed American. They were also greeted by both Sir John and Nigel Howe and have been telling enquiring parties that the visitors were only there for the PlayStation event being held at stadium, the latter is via a friend at the Reading Chronicle.

Why would you care about trying to convince Ian Royal if it's not your inside information?

Try convincing Ian Royal.

Why should I believe something you read on the internet and otherwise know nothing about, but post anyway? And why would someone else with no track record agreeing with it make it any more true?
