2 world wars, 1 world cup Ok, that should be enough time for all the doom brigade and people of fickle fragile faith to have their rants, orgasms and field days.
And now relax.
Back to reality.
Cisse, whilst playing well against tough opposition most of the time, made enough silly errors to mean he should never put on a Reading shirt again. That's essentially what lost it for us. Otherwise...
We just lost at home to the 6th best side in the country.
This isn't about taking positives, it's about looking objectively at what happened. And I'll repeat. All that happened is that we (just) lost to a very good team - the 6th best in the country. We weren't battered. We weren't played off the park. We were just outplayed slighly by a team who's not only better than us but better than 13 (thirteen) other Premiership teams. So what's the big deal exactly? No, seriously, what?
This performance/ result could easily have happened last season and apart from the above rant against Cisse, no-one would have bothered complaining. It was a normal day for the Royals as far as I'm concerned. Last season we wouldn't have demanded a win at home against such a side so why on earth would we now? Why oh why is a relegation-scrapping team suddenly expected to perform like a title winning team with uproar for not beating a class team???? The mind boggles.
We didn't lose 6-0. We didn't look like we didn't match them. We did very well in the second half and thoroughly deserved our goal. We look like a Premiership side. We are a Premiership side. And if we continue to play like one there's no reason why we won't continue to be a Premiership side next season.
Again, well done boys you did good. Cisse, sorry but you were a bit clueless today. Welcome back Ivar.
Kebe - changed the game. Fantastic!
Business as normal.
I for one am not expecting us to play incredibly all of a sudden, but just normally. And a narrow defeat at home to a very strong side isn't far off normal.
OVER A QUARTER of the season to go. Back to normality and we'll be fine. We don't need more.
Calm down, there's every chance we'll be fine.

strap 8 defeats on the bounce, in which we 've scored TWICE in the last 7 games, playing like a bunch of clueless school kids, can't cross, can't shoot, can't pass, can't tackle, keeper who can't kick a ball out of hand or from dead without sending it into straight into touch at least 3 times a game, left full back who needs 45 seconds with the ball at his feet motionless to decide what he is supposed to do with it, right winger who can't take on a defender, pass forward, cross a ball, or run..... and you tell us to relax!?!?!
Even Sir Steve was in a panic this afternoon..... I mean ... he even gave our substitutes 32 mins, 19mins and 19 mins to change the game, and even pulled off his love child AKA John Oster!!!!
Goodness, we must be in a pickle!!!
See you in the Championship next season people! Reality is a pisser ain't it??!?!
Very, very, VERY disappointed.
Actually oxf*rd angry as hell at all the empty rhetoric bullshit NONSENSE we are being served up at the moment. Sir Steve won't make any changes as that would be a knee-jerk reaction????? oxf*rd off Sir Steve!!!!! Just what have the current team got to do to make you make some changes?!?!?!?!?!
Silly me, what changes could we make? I mean we COULD try bringing in some of the Premiership signings we made in teh last 4 transfer windows .... oh wait ..... we have intoduced our recent Frech 2nd Div loanee signing, yeah, he could do a job for us in saving our Premiership status. Or we COULD select our record signing for a change ... oh wait .... or perhaps we could actually give some of our wonderful academy players some 1st team experience ..... you know, the ones that actually showed they might actually have a bit of prode and passion ...... bugger, wonder how much Swindon would sell Simon Cox back to us for???
oxf*rd BULLSHIT RFC ..... absolute horse shit!!!!! oxf*rd total waste of time and money.
So oxf*rd angry I'm just oxf*rd typing drivel ..... so oxf*rd sue me!!!!!!!
BOLLOCKS!!!!!!!
Get a oxf*rd grip RFC you oxf*rd useless tossers.

Alan Partridge 8th straight loss. That's reality.
The only 2 goals we've scored in that time were both 90minute pointless goals v Villa.
That's reality.
