The link doesn't mention a sacking just an appointment.
Does Bowen know?
Bowen moved himself back upstairs last week..Quote:

Reminds me a bit of the time when Richie Morgan was moved upstairs, after going on a good run, only to be replaced by Graham William's who lost something like 8 games on the trot.
Just about as undignified as his arrival

I'd struggle to name half the managers in the championship at the moment. Probably knew most if not all until our year long excursion away, come back and all change. Still not quite caught up.
That is so tacky, a bit like most soulless Reading fans, the Berkshire Jacks :puke:Quote:

Felt sorry for her really but shouldn’t have done with the millions she was worth :hehe:Quote:

We can confirm that Mark Bowen has departed Reading Football Club.
Having stepped away from his position as First Team Manager a few days ago, Bowen was offered a new role within the Royals’ restructure, but after careful consideration he has chosen to pursue new opportunities elsewhere.
As manager, Mark successfully steered the club away from the threat of relegation last season, coming through the final nine games of the 2019-20 campaign when the season finally resumed after lockdown in June, to achieve a 14th-placed finish in the Championship.
Owner Mr Dai Yongge said, “I would like to thank Mark for the hard work he put in as manager and the commitment he showed to our first team affairs before, during and after football’s lockdown situation. I would like to wish him well in his future endeavours.”
A bit naughty from Reading. he did well for them, took a pay cut during the Covid-19 crisp and then gets shafted. He'll be better off without them. I'm putting money on them going down next season.
