    Granted they can't just write what they want OBVIOUSLY and yes they take direction from the hireachy ,so the powers that be need to connect with the fans a lot more.

    If you want assurance from Maurice, give Reading a ring.

    The powers that be are, for the moment, Maurice Watkins and Barry Taylor. Not sure I've heard the latter utter anything public on behalf of Barnsley Football Club and with regard to Maurice Watkins he's not full time Chairman at Oakwell and judging by the list of appointments he has I'm not sure how much time he devotes to the Club but judge for yourself.

    I agree too. From the outside looking in we appear to be in turmoil and while that may not be the reality a statement from the club would go a long way to giving the fans some reassurance. This constant speculation can't be helpful to anybody.

    Football club sells a couple of players and an underperforming employee leaves. There I've done it for you.

    You'd have thought there would be a message of reassurance given the person said to be helped Hecky when Brown got the chop is now helping Reading get their takeover past the EFL

    Maurice Watkins is a senior partner in a law firm - he'll have lots of minions and hired help to deal with the Reading business. Probably hiring someone to do our CEO business too in the interim; mindst, our fee for Sammy Snake will probably be needed to pay for this service

    If there was any good news the club would tell us . Obviously there isn't, their silence speaks volumes. Just think of the worst case scenario and then it doesn't hurt so much . Tick tock , tick tock !

    I don't think Ben underperformed, and Patrick Cryne has nothing but the best interests at heart. If it was my money bankrolling the club, I'd want a say in things as well
