Coppell mulling over future
by Alex Livie, 13 May 2008
Steve Coppell would appear to be the master of his own destiny, as Reading director of football Nicky Hammond has revealed the Royals chief will ‘take a few days’ to make a decision on his future.
Reading’s spell in The Premier League came to a close on Sunday and The Madejski Stadium will be hosting second-tier football next term.
Club owner John Madejski has signalled his intention to keep Coppell at the helm, but the Reading chief has headed away for a period of reflection.
”I had a very clear meeting with him and now we need to spend a bit of time to digest and reflect on what has happened,” Hammond told the Evening Post.
“He and I will continue to talk and I will keep in contact with the chairman.”
