Good Luck to him, rather Reading than QPR.

That's a relief - good luck Bairdinho.

Another that 'arry was sure would sign for them. He's had a great summer predicting transfers...

I thought he'd joined that pathetic little bunch of losers from laugh-a-minute road when I read that headline. What a waste of a decent player that would have been! A good signing for Reading though.

Reading have got themselves a good player. Yet another player Twitchy thought would  join his revolution.
Pity Jol let him go in the first place though.

Is a shame, he could've played a role. That being said I don't think we really need him, plenty of strength in depth defensively (apart from left back).

Same here. Good luck to him. He was an excellent servant to the club.  065.gif

Reading Royals for Right-back Rejects: first Kelly and now Bairdihno.

If you think back to when Baird first joined Fulham, how unlikely would it have been to imagine that someday we would bemoan his departure?  He might have been the primary whipping boy of the Sanchez reign and was absolutely dreadful at right back. I never expected that he would turn himself into a serviceable midfielder and have the longest tenure with the club of any of the Sanchez signings, except Hughes.

Top man for choosing not to go to the Haha's, Schwarzer, AJ and Zamora could learn a lesson here.

Only a short-term contract until January mind you.

I'd love Reading to come back up with Baird and Kelly in the team. And the Pog of course.

:plus one: Much as I like the old bubble we should have kept Baird, much more useful

AJ and Zamora were transferred by Fulham. Going to QPR was what the club wanted them to do.

Schwarzer? Well, that's a different thing altogether.
