I should have guessed it, the writing was on the wall last night, when 5 minutes before kick off the Rotherham PA introduced the night's guests of honour, The Chuckle Brothers. The 90 minutes that followed were in a similar vain, comedy without any laughs. In fact it must of been a nice reunion for them with Steve Coppell, the long lost third Chuckle Brother!. When you are 0-0 against a team who have only won at home once this season, you have been dragged down to their level of Div. 3 football, why wait until the 85th minute to bring on a sub to try and change things? Where was Coppell's plan B, come to think of it where was his plan A. This was shocking, but not as shocking as finding we are still in the top six! They say the league doesn't lie, quite right, take out the top 3 teams and then replace all the others with the names with Sh*t, Sh*t, and more Sh*t! Saturday's Pardew bashing should have been the catalyst for the rest of the season, instead the 'ammers game looks like a blip and we are back on our regular self destruct mission. Instead of giving teams like Rotherham a footballing lesson we once again got dragged down to their level (lower at times as they looked a lot more lively than we did!), tenacity, spirit and flair?? Not in Coppell's dictionary. If Kitson don't score, we get nothing, if Kitson doesn't get the service, Kitson don't score, we get nothing... rocket science? Morgan is a lightweight at the moment, Owusu hardly gonna be a 20 a season man, yet Coppell persists with his personal spats with Forster and Goater, Convey doesn't get a look in and we raid the British Museum for our two latest signings. Sort it out Coppell, NOW!. I dunno what I am more worried about at the moment missing out on the play-offs or actually getting there, now that could be real comedy!

Oh dear, looks like all those newly rediscovered qualities from the West Ham game were quickly forgotten. Whatever might be said about the conditions, state of the pitch, weather, how cold the dressing rooms were, etc, the fact is that Rotherham are adrift at the bottom by a country mile and have won only 4 times (including last night) all season. This sort of record speaks for itself. Reading should beat teams like that, especially if they really are serious about going up to a higher level. But once again, they made a mess of it. It's just as well that most of the teams below them did similar things so, incredibly, we're still in a play-off place. Can someone convince the team Pardew is in charge of every club we have left to play as it sometimes seems that's the only motivation that can spark them?

Words fail me, only Reading. So called professionals, the lot of them are a joke and an embarrassment. Talk about hot and cold, they have the passion and ambition of a cold cow pat.
