Coppell relishing Seagulls reunion

Reading manager Steve Coppell is looking forward to renewing his acquaintance with Brighton on the opening day of the Championship season.

Coppell enjoyed a 12-month period as Seagulls boss from October 2002 before switching to the Royals.

Now the fixture planners have decreed Brighton, promoted under manager Mark McGhee's stewardship via the Division Two play-offs last term, will provide Reading's inaugural Championship opposition when the 2004-05 season gets underway on Saturday August 7.

Coppell told Reading's official website: "I'm delighted to have them first game.

"The success they had last season and the promotion, which I might add I feel a small part of, plus the connections between the clubs will give everyone an extra half-yard."

Old news BR. If you analyse what he says, it is the biggest load of crud since Spinal Tap's manager said "Money talks, bullshit walks"!!

"...plus the connections between the clubs will give everyone an extra half yard" What the hell is that all about?!! The only reason that he's "...delighted to have them(THEM?!) first game.." is so that he can get one sleepless night out of the way early on in the season.

Potentially an easy start for Reading unless we get some new players in over the next few weeks. No wonder Coppell is so pleased.

:D

Why the f*** does he feel part of it? He f***ed off to join some twats. He therefore relinquishes any part of BHA.

Should be a great atmosphere with Brighton fans shouting "Judas" at Coppell and Reading fans shouting "Judas" at McGhee!
But everyone agreeing Pardew is a ****.
