#BushWatch Returns For Transfer Deadline Day January 2017

Deadline days will never be the same again.

Carabao join Bushwatch Reading FC Twitter

Transfer deadline day at Reading FC was traditionally uninteresting. The club rarely got business done, the Sky cameras completely ignored Junction 11 of the M4 and Loyal Royals were left to feed off scraps of information from less reliable media outlets.

That is until a few years ago when lovable rogue Jacob South Klein became an icon by hiding in a bush outside the Madejski Hotel, hoping to grab some fresh information. There was that iconic photo of JSK and Nigel Adkins. Then there was the sighting of Ola John, Vydra, and others.

Essentially, #Bushwatch isn't just entertainment, it's infotainment.

So we're delighted it's back.

There's plenty more where that came from, just go to Jacob's Twitter profile or search for #bushwatch on Twitter.

Your chance to say thanks

JSK tweeted a few days ago that he's trialling extending #Bushwatch beyond just hiding in a bush and looking a bit creepy. We'll let his tweets do the talking.

Stay tuned to The Tilehurst End for any news we (or JSK) hear on Transfer Deadline Day, and if you feel like you want even more bushwatch action, listen back to Jacob's appearance on the 100th episode of The Tilehurst End Podcast.
