This Stalinist management style could be developed at Reading. I would love to have had Andre Bikey up at a public self-critism session after his outburst at that playoff game against Burnley a couple years ago. His performance was an insult to Dear Leader Sir John Madejski.

The Madejski Millenium Hotel conference centre would be an ideal venue for such sessions following poor performances.

Come on STAR, pull your finger out!

He would have killed everyone with his bare hands. You don't criticise Andre Bikey - you give him nothing but respect.

Bikey is Spiderman!

Not only were the players berated for 6 hours(!) but the coach has been sentenced to do hard labour on a building site: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-10935521
