The Tilehurst End Podcast Manager Special: Bowen Out, Paunović In
Saturday Aug 29, 2020
Saturday Aug 29, 2020
Here we are again. For the fourth time in just under two and a half years, we bring you a special managerial podcast following Reading’s decision to replace Mark Bowen with Veljko Paunović.
Olly Allen is joined by Dan Wimbush and Adam Jones to dissect a mad week in RG2, from Monday’s news that Nigel Howe was leaving his position as chief executive to the saga that has left the Royals with a new boss just a week before the start of the season. The guys discuss the timing of the decision, whether we should have sympathy for Bowen, what to expect from Paunović and what we’ve learnt about owner Dai Yongge.

The Tilehurst End Podcast: Brian Tevreden Interview
Sunday Jul 26, 2020
Sunday Jul 26, 2020
It is four years since Brian Tevreden, in his new role as Reading’s Director of Football, brought Jaap Stam to Berkshire to begin ‘the Dutch Revolution’. A lot has happened since then, and Brian now joins The Tilehurst End Podcast to go through the good and the bad.
The 38-year-old discusses recruitment strategy, the development of young players and the hectic nature of the transfer window before giving his honest thoughts on how Reading changed dramatically when Ron Gourlay was appointed CEO in 2017. We also learn what Brian is up to now, and finish with a chat on the Black Lives Matter movement and the lack of BAME individuals in boardroom positions and coaching roles in football.
Many thanks to Brian for chatting with us - it’s well worth a listen for a fascinating insight into how the club looked during a turbulent time behind the scenes.
