Hugely whelmed!

Still possession based football, though hopefully more attacking. Yes he's been sacked before - but so has every other manager (barring Wenger and Judas types like Pardew)!

Confident we'll do well in whichever league we're in next season!

Nigel Pearson (currently in the Belgium second tier).

Warbuton, Coyle or Clement if after a free option with league experience (though not too positive)

With the foundations Stam has put in place at the club, we need consistency. The next manager coming in should have a similar style, but with a few tweaks. My preferred candidate would be Roberto Martinez. Plays passing football, but it's more attacking. The Spanish style is essentially an evolutio...

Someone get on the phone to Hughes or Coyle... experience and graft please!

This has to be it surely. Stam has to go. It gives a new manager or caretaker till the end of the season a bit of time but it could be a shot in the arm. Frankly it's embarrassing. Burton 2 down. They are fighting though not being good enough. This side ARE good enough. But under this plank they ar...

39 points to stay up, think we'll fail to reach that*!


*unless Stam goes

Positive head on... We'll only concede 5!

Another proper dicking coming our way...

I hope not, though rather fear we may. Every time we play I'm resigned to disappointment - though I hope against hope we aren't about to undo decades of solidifying the club.

59'
Attempt missed. Chris Martin (Reading) header from the centre of the box is high and wide to the right. Assisted by Pelle Clement with a cross.

G Mac down injured after 3 minutes - a new Darren Anderton!

Wearing the great Cédric Baseya's shirt... can only be good!

Given Aluko's "form", GMac's injuries and Beerens Beerensness this is an absolute farce. He deserved a shot either at 10 (in for the perpetually injured Swift) or on the wing!

Shoddy recruitment aside this is one we've let slip through our fingers!

Vito
Gunter Illori Moore Richards
JVB Bacuna
Edwards
Barrow Dadi
Kermit

Swap between 4-2-3-1 in defence and 4-4-2 in attack (Bacuna and Barrow to wings)


Subs: Jaak, Kelly, Evans, Blackett (no-one else fit), Popa, Aluko, Andresson

Look to offload -Beerans, Gmac

Bump - any noise from the biggest club in Leeds?

I'm one of the most optimistic Reading fans there are and tonight's game scares me. I have never been at a match where I've thought the players were as CONFUSED as this. Nobody has a clue how the formation should be working and he lack of confidence is a massive issue. At one point we made 4 consec...

Hound To be honest, a couple of wins and it will all be forgotten, as it was last year

It was hardly all out mutiny in the stadium. TBH, surprised he even mentioned it

People are talking about him and not the players, he's done his job and protected them from the media barrage they may well deserve.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p05h1hg2 :| Completely agree with what he's said, our fans are notoriously quiet - we're only a month in and did really well with his tactics last year. There are teams who have spent more and have better squads, too many Football Manager fans out there thinking they...

F me VDB is a cretin!

Jaakkola

Evans, Gunter (c), Moore, Richards

Barrett, Kelly, Rinomhota, Clement

Smith, Mendes

JIM With all the transfers going on, Have we got a sell on clause for SIGGY; ?

Sold twice more since he went to Hoffenhiem, so no! Unfortunately it wasn't infinite.
