He can f*** right off. If he does come back for anyone, DK should tell him where to go

this is a story hyped up by the News of the world,
when they asked coppell if he wanted any of brightons players he said, something like,
"Brighton have some good players who I wouldnt mind playing for Reading".
The press have put 2 and 2 together and come up with 3, working out that Knight and Cullip are 2 of our best players and he,s gonna poach them!

Reading want to get promoted and would be looking for players to play in the Premiership; neither Cullip nor Knight set the 1st division alight when they played there; that's not to say that they couldn't play in the division but I bet that Reading would rather have proven performers.
I would guess that DK would want good money for the pair of them as well and Madge is a tight git.

With all due respects, we really don't need Leon Knight. Seems to be doing a job in Division Two, yes, but he offers us nothing we already don't have.
Cullip though, I think that Coppell would try to make a move for him (whether he'd be successful or not is another matter). Madge has given him a transfer budget, but won't say how much it is (quite right too). Cullip, local lad, we need another up-and-coming centre-back, not a complete article but one that we can develop... however I think that we'll go for Ingemarsson, personally. Cheaper, and can play in many positions, and has worked under Coppell before at both Brighton and Brentford.

Out of either of them I reckon Cullip is the most likely to go, however in the original article, all Coppell said was that we have some top players and undoubtedly Id be interested in them although thats not to say Im going to poach them.
Of course hes going to be interested in them as hes worked with them for over a year but i dont think theres too many of them who are that much better than what hes already got at Reading now

I never belive quotes from newspapers, but like Locky I can't see either of them going.

Would agree with Wilts in that they'll probably go for Ingemarsson. Showed he was class last year.

But it's hardly a signal of intent from a side that wants to get into the Premiership.
Danny's good, but he ain't Premiership class.
If his distribution was as good as his defending and reading of the game he would be world class, though.

Are you mental?
Nicky Forster is a slightly taller version of Leon Knight. Can't do all the same things and can win headers too!
