Intensely frustrating as it may be, the administrators know that whatever the immediate noise may be they will be judged by results ultimately.
They could seemingly be doing nothing but play golf, miss deadlines and coin in the big bucks whilst ignoring every attempt to discuss anything...but if Mike Ashley throws his wallet on the table and they announce him as the PB  everyone will be apologising and heralding them as ultra professional experts who kept quiet and diligently did their duty behind closed doors and have achieved exactly what they were asked to do.
Conversely they could answer every question, meet every deadline, work every hour God sends and be unbelievably dedicated and professional...but if we really are a basket case and ultimately no one is interested then everyone will have 20-20 hindsight and say it's clear they were chancers,  had no idea what they were doing and have lined their pockets at our expense. 
Patience is wearing thin, but it will all be forgotten if they bag a big fish. Another day or two will make no odds to how they are judged eventually, so as hard as it is we just need to take the longer view. 

The Sports Direct stand.

Yep, delighted that no formal offers have yet been submitted....

Seen a lot of people (mostly on Twitter) saying that’s the end of our survival chances. How thick can you get? Were people seriously expecting Reading to win 0 out of their last 14 games?

The anger is good. We all need an outlet for anger and being at the match, cheering the Rams on from start to finish is what has personally kept me sane and given me hope.
The South Stand, South West Corner and the East Stand from half way to the away fans is sold out for Peterborough. I suspect this may well be the case for the rest of the season. People want to be part of the unbelievable support for Rooney and this bunch of honest, brave, and united bunch of lads giving their all for the cause.
Harness this anger, use it to roar the players on, give the EFL every bit of abuse they deserve but mainly, get behind every single player with everything you've got, every game.

Sorry, the "Things that annoy me" threads are in the Jim Smith Room.

I imagine around 40 but I prefer not to think about it
Remember the season we finished 3rd a few years back, which would have seen us get top 2 in 19 out of the previous 20 seasons or something silly...
I'm just looking at 4th from bottom, and counting the points down
If we get within a win on the final day, we have a chance 

I assume if we get to the final couple of games and are a couple of points ahead or behind Reading the EFL will decide they were harshly treated having the 6 point deduction instead of the proposed 9 and will reduce it further to 3.  Stake my ass on it. 

Ohhhh, ta......hadn't spotted that.......

Idiots recording and uploading videos of the fans singing about partying when Gibson dies onto social media. 
 
Why?
 
Why can’t they just be normal rather than idiots?
 
Why do they think it’s useful to start alienating other fans when we need as many friends as possible in the footballing world right now? 
 
That video is losing us sympathy left, right and centre at a time when we need to backing of our fellow football fans.  . 
 
We need to flush these weasels out of the club or their loved ones need to ban them from drinking before the football.
 
And if you’re going to comment to say every club has this sort of fan then don’t bother, tired of making excuses based on the fact other clubs have fans who don’t know right from wrong after a shandy too.

Biggest problem with all these messages of stay calm etc, is that you are already preaching to the converted
The types that are going to do this, aren't on this forum, aren't reading the club statements, and even if they are, they don't care.
It is 100% going to kick off, play into Gibsons hand, and we will foot the bill, and fans from other clubs will love it. Any argument will just have it thrown back at us

I believe Jackson...she has a nose for the job

I know it seems a long way into the season but... we have to let him settle in and find his home, which for him takes longer than most.
I think its telling that he's now played more games for us than he has for any other perm move in his career, and the only other time being a loan spell at Brum back in 2013. 
I think he's starring to settle in and actually enjoys being here from his social media etc. 
I hope for his sake, he stays and becomes part of whatever squad we have in the future.
