How much bigger do you want. It is 28 acres of expensively prepared football pitches and some buildings. My reading of the comment is that they are possibly going to replace the temporary buildings with some permanent ones.

The site itself is fine. We still use portacabins, so they will be replaced with a permanent structure and of an increased size. The facilities we have which are already of a very hight standard will also be upgraded.

Isn't that what I said?

TSI sounds dodgy as shit.. wouldnt trust russians EVER. they are dodgy fvckers.. all a bit dodgy

Well that isn't a simple damning of a whole nation then... or maybe it is.

Says more about your narrow mindedness than it does about Russians.

you just got trolled

I demand to be informed who my impersonator was

I'm fairly sure it was Jay as he once replied to a post of mine saying I spoke like Chewbacca. As Jay is the only one who says that about me, I felt sure it was him.

[Badger Finger]

Can't be Jay.

There's an element of intellect to Mugs.

I doubt that there was much intellect coming from Mugs.

Royal Lady has already said it wasn't him. How about we keep to topic? Can't a moderator tidy this thread up? This is terrible, and you lot look in on KUMB and mock their idiots?

You're adding a lot to this thread yourself, SpaceCruiser...

What are your views on TSI, AZ, BZ and CS?

I said this yesterday however being that one of the moderators has said that shes going to leave the "offensive" comments on and run to Graham about it A moderator who doesnt moderate .. whats the point?

No one seems to have any news or any info on TSI so have decided to use this thread to attack each other very Primary school playing ground...

[MassSarrslibrarian]

We all read the papers, we all hear the rumours and we all do our own research, there appears to be enough evidence that TSI and Samuelson are as dodgy as G,ary Glitter in a kindergarten. Also, what remains t be seen is whether this is AZ's money or his Father's-there is a lot of stuff readily available on Boris Zingarevich's dealings on the internet, but so little of Anton's.....the finest bit of business I can see on the internet about Anton is his VERY fine choice in a wife...

I really hope the TSI deal goes through, but, I'll believe it when I see it.....the worse that can happen is that TSi will pull out, and we'll still have Madjeski as full owner of the club and he may have to look for another buyer, which, given that we are now premier league, Im sure won't be that hard to find

The full quote below. I read it as a response to the post above yours (in support of yours)

With Anton investing money and talking about investment off the pitch, is the future at Hogwood going to be shortlived for a bigger site?

There was talk when they originally moved to Hogwood, that they might inherit the recently built Army gym which is adjacent to their plot, when the Army moved out of Arborfield. Have the MoD decided on Arborfield yet?

They are going, yes. Just not sure when. Some of REME is going to Wales, and some Swindon way I believe.

This is what I kinda thought - it's really just a hotch-potch of porta-cabins nailed together & painted isn't it? The actual playing/training areas are good quality (I worked in the ind. estate next door and used to stick my nose through the bushes for a look heh heh)

Three dodgys in one sentence... isn't that dodgy grammar?

[No Hoops]

Just looked at the Wokingham planning site and all the buildings are temporary and were given 3-5 years approval in 2007 which would indicate the planning is out of date at the latest this year. Can't see any application for extension.

Zingarevich to complete Reading FC takeover this week
By Jonny Fordham
April 26, 2012

Anton Zingarevich's £25 million takeover of Reading FC will be completed this week, according to chairman Sir John Madejski.

The deal has been fully agreed and Royals are waiting for the Football League and Premier League to finish their background checks into Zingarevich’s finances.

The 30-year-old Russian, who is the son of billionaire timber tycoon Boris Zingarevich, was originally due to purchase 51 per cent of the club by March 31.

But Madejski said last week that despite the delay, the takeover would go through this week.

“All bodes well for Reading Football Club,” said Madejski, who turns 71 on Saturday.

“Let’s dot the i’s and cross the t’s. Let’s make sure, perfectly sure, that what’s going forward is going forward and so therefore everybody’s happy.

“I’m sure it’s going to happen but I think it is right and proper that the league have got to be very circumspect.

“We want to make sure that the deal is completely watertight for the sake of the club going forward. But that should all pan out.

“All these questions will be answered substantially and at the end of the day the Premier League are not going to allow people into the league unless they are fit for purpose and indeed that they’ve got the money to do what they say they are going to do.”

Why is he only printing that now? We've known this for over a week now, along with the quotes from SJM.

Bloody hell, can this man be any further behind the times. This was mentioned last week. I swear JF is only on work experience at the paper.

Agreed, I honestly dont know how he got his job. It's embarassing really.
