Royal Ginger I wish i could care...


More apathy
It's as if people have lost interest


With all the money in the game football has lost it's soul.

More fun to scrap it out in league 2. Than pay to watch overpaid prima donnas.

6 minutes of 1080p highlights from the fantastic Cardiff youtube channel. We look slow, inept and ultimately amateur.

I didn't even realise we appealed it, never bothered watching it as from what I'd heard, it sounded clear cut.

Ian Royal Cheers chaps.

Interesting to see one person describe the first half performance as 'terrible', someone else say we 'dominated' them and a third say apart from the goals it was 'pretty good'.

HNA, definitely the place to go to find out how we played. :lol:


how did it sound from the radio?

No idea, I was busy socialising. Hence the questions.

To go in 2-0 down at HT, to a fairly crap side you've dominated for 45 minutes, is pretty terrible if you ask me.


Depends on whether you're talking about overall performance, result or a general resilience. Besides, I'm just pointing out how three different people who saw the game have conflicting views on how we played. Clearly going to the game doesn't mean someone can be relied upon to give a decent view of how we did.


Tbf, can't speak for all but I think generally those people you're talking about who commented on the game watched it on a stream. AFAIK, Rother doesn't go to Reading games these days!

From watching on the stream myself, Pissed Off's summary is pretty accurate i'd say, but I would add that the goal didn't seem to change the players mentality. Hector celebrated but if you'd missed it you'd probably not have guessed there was only one goal in it in the last 10 mins.

It was a decent response 2nd half in scoreline terms with the 10 men, but the first half was really disappointing, so the result still left me a bit flat.

Final word on Cardiff, they deserved to win overall imo, but not sure they would have done had it been 11 v 11 for the whole game. For a side that have picked up as many points as they have at home I was a bit shocked by how poor they looked, and while it was 0-0 they were so dominated in possession it could be said that they looked like the away side.

That's what we all thought about Pearce's red against Sheffield Wednesday last year.

I thought you watched weeknight games on streams, and went to Windsor games every weekend, and maybe midweeks as well sometimes.
Apologies if that isn't the case.

That is exactly the case as it happens!

I was being tongue in cheek in my reply as some people do make a lot of the fact I'm strictly an armchair TV and Internet watcher these days. I should have added a wink really!
