I think we missed Royston, If he'd been playing I reckon we would have been a lot stronger on the wings and probably got a point, maybe even a win. Such a shame really that Sheffield Wednesday didn't play him. We missed McCleary not Drenthe though you're right about it being a shame he didn't play ...

Got to have a few more options on the set piece. The amount of corners and free kicks we had in the last qtr of the match - just meant Pearce comes lumbering up to back post, ball hit long, Pearce heads back in hoping someone gets on to it. It has worked and will work again - but doing it for the t...

Was I the only fan who went who noticed how slow the pitch was? Right from kick off it looked as there had been a torrential downpour before the game. I'm glad we didn't try to pass out from goal kicks. Sheffield Wednesday reminded me a lot of our teams under Brian McDermott. Unspectacular, very har...

We can't rely on Kuhl to play all season (or even most of the season) and it's also rash to judge him on a 45 minute appearance when Reading are pouring forward chasing a game. More midfield options means more protection of Kuhl and more careful transition into the first team, which is good for all...

Federici Gunter | Hector | Pearce | Obita Akpan | Norwood Blackman | Cox | Taylor Pogrebnyak I would be perfectly happy to see Cummings in for Taylor. I'd be tempted to start Kuhl but I think him and Norwood could be too lightweight together, also two players making their full debuts together in cen...

Watching Aaron Kuhl on Tuesday did confirm to me my surprise that we are signing another central midfielder but as another poster said it may mean Guthrie's, Karacan's, and/or Williams' injuries are worse than feared. I also believe that Guthrie is in the last year of his contract and given his like...

If Cardiff are silly enough to bid £2m+ for Morrison then we should be offering to drive him there. He's a decent centre back but the fact in a year he's gone from being McAnuff's stand-in as captain to not even being considered for the captaincy says a lot. Ferdinand (presuming he's a signing that ...

Another nice idea of support engagement by the club which has ended up being half-arsed and badly run. They never said what they actually meant by club anthem. Do they mean an anthem like YNWA which the fans all "passionately" sing-along to? Or do they mean a song to accompany a pre-match ...
