Sonko is a Spareman! – A look at the possible return of a former Reading hero

July 23, 2011

Sonko is ‘Superman!’ ….. well for me, Sonko should be the ‘Spareman!’

The heroic return of one Ibrahima Sonko should be seen as a decision taken by the club out of necessity rather than nostalgia.

The transfer market is frankly becoming rather ridiculous.
