Not too upset with our performance really. I wouldn’t say we’ve been bullied really, more naive and gave them a couple of very easy goals

We’ve struggled since they went 3-0 and have gone low block but again not wholly surprising

Better choices and dare I say a few more things going our way in and around their area and things have been different

We do need to get some players in though. Real stretch for the likes of Akande this

Bristol Paul Wrexham commentator essentially said too much fannying around from Reading, to yet another attempt from Elliott to walk through their defence and giving it away yet again.

He knows his stuff

I hope we have some players lined up already once the takeover hopefully goes through because this lack of squad depth is going to ruin our season.

Yep Elliot and Savage just don't work, Think Abretha comes in and Craig comes into midfield for either, no idea what we can do upfront

One Beer is never enough. Essentially men against boys. We are very good, very technical but being bullied by the physicality of a very organised (but limited) team.

Just remember the average age of the defence is just 21, they haven't yet got the experience to deal with what's in front of them. A goal however could change things....


Correct, who was it who said "you don't win anything with kids or too many foreign players"?

Look at the Wrexham squad for experience plus the majority are British players. Parky is taking this team up another division.

More than some of his counterparts at BBCRB who don't even seem to know some of our players!

Am I the only one that thought Akande had a good game? Doesn't look out of his depth. Just needs more games and experience.

In L1 we're pretty big, certainly compared to Wrexham. And we haven't.

They don't seem to be able to get Craig's name right though.

Hound Suppose the positive if this Wrexham side are one of the favourites for the division…

We need to do better in the final 3rd though. Been useless there

What?

Bit of a tonking, but still think we will be ok this season. Need some more bodies though and can’t afford to lose anyone else this week.

Really need Knibbs back. And a few extra players before the window shuts for depth. Not that our academy players have looked poor. Just need some old heads for experience.

Now it's about how we respond. Could have done with the take over going through and not being held up by the Hotel. Could have been a real positive, despite the loss.

It's a saga that's droned on now.

Well that was shit and bump back down to Earth we go.

We're so close to building something good. But so hamstrung by that pcunt Dai. And the longer we can't build, the more ofthis group we'll lose before we can really do something special with them.

Mbengue, Bindon, Craig, Savage and Elliott could be a fantastic core to build a squad around, capable of promotion and competing in the Championship for years. But we've not got enough around them and they'll soon move on to better if we don’t progress.

We've already lost Holmes, McIntyre, Vickers, Abbey and Azeez.
