BBC SPORT | Football | My Club | R | Reading | Coppell resigns as Reading boss

No great surprise there, there's been rumours for several weeks now. Reading's loss though.

 

[bhadeb]

Hope he dosen't stay away from management - he is a good football manager

 

[Hockley Blues]

No suprise, shame for Reading..

 

[Bald Gull]

There were rumours a while ago that he was retiring altogether

 

[Jesus Gul]

Fergie's successor?

 

[Superphil]

Why would they free fall down the league? They have a strong squad, good financial backing, a modern stadium. Very attractive to an aspiring young and ambitious manager, or an experienced manager. Madjeski is no fool, he will find a suitable replacement.

Hopefully he'll look at a former Stockport manager and not a manager currently employed

 

[Austrian Gull]

An excellent manager - as good as we've had IMHO.

Maybe he's had enough of Reading's crap support - not even 20,000 for a play-off match with the prize a trip to Wembley is embarrassing.

 

[ali jenkins]

I heard that win or loose he was going at the end of the season so its no supprise really.

Good luck to the man!

 

[severnside gull]

predictable but sad nonetheless.
A good manager and a good man.

 

[1swedegull]

he has always said he would go at the end of the season , hes a bit like curbishley once hes seen a job through and cant go further he leaves on a high ... fair play to him i just wonder if he had stayed with us what we would have acheived .

 

[medicine man]

Hopefully he'll look at a former Stockport manager and not a manager currently employed

or recently employed...

That's how I read it - and given it happen so quickly after the game I reckon this is correct. Be interesting to sss if he wants to work again - I would guess he doesn't have to.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Could do a job?








What?

my thoughts exactly - Falmer would be full for such a game. We can follow them up the leagues.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

That's a shame. Great manager and a decent bloke.

 

[Marshy]

I dont think he will manage another side again.

Moving to Brighton i would imagine.....

 

[Garage_Doors]

Reading looks made for Mickey Adams to take over from Coppell

 

[murraymints4brighton]

One for the best managers we have ever had and for him that is definitely the right time to go.
