What's been happening? I heard we're losing.

I'll be relieved when this game and this season is over.

Is Brian playing that pathetic diamond again?

Is Brian playing that pathetic diamond again?

We've been abject. We're not playing the diamond. Barrett started, but I don't recall hearing his name even once before he was subbed. Dickie and Hal came on at half time for Barrett and Kermorgant - who scored our goal via direct freekick and the woodwork. Blackburn could have been 3 or 4 up after 20 minutes.

[Top Flight]

Didn't McCleary start at right back?

We must have been really unbalanced again. It's going to be difficult for us with no pace up front.

We really are poor at the moment. I hope Brian can find us some players with pace over the summer. Then our team could be transformed.

[Ian Royal]

Come on Bri, Stacey time please.

Williams losing his tiny amount of cool once more.

[leon]

He's a bit of a helmet

[Ian Royal]

There's three. From a corner.

Thank oxf*rd this season is over in a couple of minutes.

Quinn off - Evans on - oxf*rd off recalling Stacey to sit on the bench and do oxf*rd all.

3-1 bye bye brain

Finally coming to terms with yourself mate?

[leon]

It's got to be said I'm losing patience with Brian. I don't want to but the last 5 games have been utter shit.

I want him to succeed but nothing short of removing most of the team is going to work.

He's certainly got to have a good summer and start to the season.

And he's not know for starting well.

[sandman]

Thank fcuk that's over.

Yea, I'm moving to this point of view, I can't see what Brian's plan actually is

Nice guy, but we should be able to defend better by now.

We need more than platitudes and enthusiasm

[genome]

Oh well, at least we can LOL at Brighton

[bobby m's syrup]

Nice result from the Riverside. Come on Wednesday, Hull and Derby.

[Longhorn1970]

Reading starting XI vs Blackburn: Al-Habsi, McCleary, Gunter, Cooper, McShane (c), Quinn, Norwood, Barrett, Williams, Kermorgant, Rakels.

Reading subs vs Blackburn: Bond, Evans, Robson-Kanu, Kuhl, Stacey, Watson, Dickie.

Oof, I was off by one with my team prediction.

Diamond again with Williams at the tip and Barrett right? or Barrett at the tip and Williams right?

Think I'd rather Barrett at the tip. More creative and a little less strong defensively.

Oh, apparently 4-4-2 with Quinn left and Barrett right... interesting.

Very young bench. I hope Stacey gets a run out. Dickie is probably just there for experience, you don't sub a CB unless there's an injury.

Proven not to work so let's continue with it ! And guess what ...

[CountryRoyal]

Thank fukk for that. Only 35 games too late.

[Longhorn1970]

3-1 bye bye brain

Finally coming to terms with yourself mate?

he has to go McDermot

The guy is clueless against rubbish ..

[Longhorn1970]

He's a bit of a helmet

He's only become one under BM ..

What's the clubs plan? All very well and good attacking the manager but a plan comes from the very top and right now the owners are the ones who haven't got one.

The best clubs move together as a unit and there is no guidance from the owners.

[howser]

What was the point of recalling Stacey ????
