Opposition fans back from the game - 24/25 page 225 onwards

[CountryRoyal]

Agreed, by far the best of the Birmingham-area sides

Low bar though

They clear it by miles.

Yeah even Walsall are proper pcunts tbf.

Barnsley Away:

"Thoroughly disappointed with tonight. I agree that they were the worst team I've seen at Oakwell in quite a while and we still couldn't beat them."

"Possibly the worst team i've seen at oakwell in years...The opposition run us a close second and still got a point with ease"

"Its quite an achievement to not beat a side as pi55 poor as Reading but we achieved it."

"Reading worst team I have seen at Oakwell this season"

"Reading were terrible and it’s not good that we haven’t managed to beat one of the worst, non threatening performances from an away side I’ve seen this year. "

"Reading's number 14 can beat a man - he kept beating anyone who tried to tackle him."

"Reading did their very best to make us look competent and we tried our very best to pass up on that opportunity they afforded us."

"The most amazing thing tonight is that both teams scored. I really never saw that coming."

Can't argue with any of that, must be really oxf*rd annoying to not have got what should have been a vital 3pts.

We'll play better, especially with Swift and Baldock back.

Yep, absolutely and we’ve said it before ourselves. In fact IIRC we said the exact same thing about Barnsley last season - but I think we beat them. Can’t really remember, most of our performances over the last few years have been pretty forgettable.

And they have beaten Fulham and Hull two decent teams. Barnsley were terrible yet we made them look like Liverpool tonight. Even more worrying was watching how rubbish Birmingham were against QPR just one half hearted attempt at goal against a team who leak goals for fun yet they could have had five against us.

Good to see Ejaria getting a mention even when he was nowhere near his best.

Enjoying the beaten by Charlie Adam comments

In the spirit of Christmas, and knowingly swimming against the tide, I am always fair when it comes to seeing pure skill, and Charlie Adam did two things today that were head and shoulders ahead of anything else on the pitch.
His through ball for the goal was sublime, and he absolutely undressed Potts with a deft shimmy. The obese Blackpool bastard impressed me today. He's 34 years old. He looked 47.
Reading were full value for their 3 points today, they scored two - and nearly three - excellent goals, and their manager completely outdid Alex Neil in the tactics department. Their back four was absolutely superb throughout.
Sometimes you have to accept defeat, analyse the weaknesses, and come back another day.
And rest assured that you only have to play each team, and Reading in particular, twice each season.

allowed the pedestrian,rotund Charlie Adam to run it.........

For a fat, greying old football player, it was amazing the influence Charlie Adam had on important phases of the game.
Respect where it is due.

It pains me to say this. Despite looking like a telly tubby, he was still a class act. MOM by a street.

His ball into our box leading to their first goal should become mandatory viewing to all youth players under the age of 16.

we allowed some old fat bugger to boss the game for the first half

[Hound]

Fair enough - have plenty of time for PNE fans. Alex Neil is a bit of a tit (but a decent manager) but their fans are generally decent

I think hes a good manager but he does talk some shite. Comes across very "old man yelling at clouds" at times.
