Worst game I've seen for a while, for sure. Have to say though, although the numbers were good, our support was shocking. If the players were complacent after our good run, the crowd were more so. We just sat there awaiting our first goal. It never came, so we never sang. Even on the few occasions w...
Both positive signings for me. Having lived in Watford recently and with relatives there, they're my 2nd club and somewhere I love to go when our matches allow (not often - we seem to be at home when they are pretty much all season) Always liked Jobi, he's a hard worker. Maybe not the natural talent...
I liked it; some proper football being played today. Best part was that pretty much all of the team seemed to take to the new style well. Davies could be a new star for sure. Nice to see some Reading shots with pace. A little too much passing backwards though. Hopefully we'll learn to be a bit more ...
I can't be arsed to look, but wasn't Wolves the first game without Ingimarson? Before that, the team tried to play football. After that the hoofball axis of Armstrong and Duberry were allowed to take over and we stopped playing football for about two whole months. Agreed. I think this coincided wit...
A winge up about the rip-off that is Reading World... I joined this service as all 'True Reading fans need to be a member' etc. Seriously though, what a waste of money. A couple of highlights, mostly available on TV, and 'News at it happens' which really isn't all that important. OK, fine, each to t...
I thought Harper worked his socks off today. Can't see why people are slagging him. I also don't understand why SHunt was removed. I'm not his biggest fan, but I couldn't fault him for effort today. I really don't understand why he was removed, He was obvioulsy pissed at being subbed last match and ...
One thing I don't understand is, why, when Feds has the ball do 20 people form a tight 'square' on one side of the pitch awaiting his kick out? Why doesn't Kebe move out to the other side and await one of his pinpoint dispersals? On a similar note, we never seem to move the ball cross-field when Keb...
For me, the best part of today was coming away seeing a good performance from Fed. He must have been under massive pressure; even considering the opposition today. Although he wasn't really tested in any big way, he did what was needed and showed some very nice distribution. Love the low, accurate k...
To be fair, Chopra had his back to Bikey and ended up eating the turf pretty quickly, he's probably not in the best position to tell what Bikey did or didn't do, beyond clatter him. Quite possibly. I'm passing no judgement on Chopra; I wasn't there. It's funny though, at some point at every home ga...
If BK didn't throw the punch then Chopra should come forward. The result's not going to change anything now other than his availability to play the next few games. If that means so much to Cardiff then they're pretty sad if you ask me; they've had their advantage already. No more is needed. That sai...
I thought Bikey was outstanding today. He showed none of the scary 'laid back' image from before. To be honest, he was pretty much faultless. Certainly his best game so far this season. I actually felt sorry for Hulse - did he even get to touch the ball? Hats off to Kebe also. Nice to see him throw ...
Just returned from 2009 in my time machine, so can put you all out of your misery: 1st: Reading :) 2nd: Birmingham 3rd: Cardiff City 4th: Sheffield Utd 5th: QPR 6th: Burnley Cardiff City 2 - 0 Sheffield Utd at Wembley (Wolves come an embarrasing 9th) You're setting yourself up for some real ribbing...
