Reading FC Players and Trialists - Possible Frauds
The players on this page have claimed to have once played for Reading FC! Their claims have been in the form of e-mails to this website (or its predecessor), biographies on websites or newspaper articles. The player features only on this page because in all cases I have been unable to back up their claims.

Terry KIELY |
(As stated in Terry Kiely's publicity material 9/2001) "Terry describes Fletch (his dream team character) as a lovable rogue, not very bright..."a Lotus Driving Lothario"! "Prior to Dreamteam, Terry had no TV experience, just some stage work....he reckons he's learning on camera. When he auditioned for the part, he not only had to read the part, he had to do kick ups as well! He reckoned he was rubbish, and doesn't know how he got the part. Natural charm maybe? "In fact Terry does have a football background, he used to play for Reading. Louise seemed very interested in his social life...he told her he's single, but that's 'cos he's too busy working... although he does like going to the cinema on his own. He wouldn't last long in Dublin on his own!" |
