Ill be objective on what i thought of the game as i watched the whole thing live online - except i lost connection for our first 2 goals - grr!
1st half - dominated by Wet Sham in terms of possession but as someone said very little penetration and hardly any chances except the goal - if Wet Sham think thats domination then they must have shit in their eyes as the quality was dire. Reading were terrible for the first 20 mins, probably our worst start to a game for 20+ games. Despite We t Sham dominating Hunt was unlucky not to score on 30ish mins. Against the run of play we equalised, then we got a 2nd - couldnt believe it - total smash and grab.
2nd half was fairly even in possession but with Wet Sham having to come at us, that played into our hands and we could have had 2-3 more. 5th for looked just out. Penalty was a stone wall pen.
As for stupid Wet Sham fans - they just sound like a bunch of babies who cant accept defeat gracefully. To say they played off the park is laughable- dominated possesision but did little with it is more like it - weve been robbed several times this season but you dont hear us whining much - Crystal P away-perfectly good winning goal disallowed, Hull goal at home was miles offside - but then again weve had fortunate moments - mcanuff hitting both posts but fall nicely to harte for goal v blackpool, millwall goal looked offside as near identical to the hull's goal against us
As some for Royals fans, get a grip its a great day but weve just won a game and won 3 points, we are only 4 points ahead and weve still got 6 more cup finals to go and need to beat leeds otherwise this Wet Sham result means little - i really hope we can do it as i dread going into the playoffs again - seen every one so far so thats a no thanks - would be incredible if we could win it when you look at where we were after 6 games and then 20 or so games in (but id be happy with 2nd)!!!!
Come on U Rs
Hunt is this seasons Long - he has improved massively especially since Roberts has joined.
Makes you wonder why Wet Sham didnt get Roberts as they splashed plenty of cash
