    16 goals conceded in their last 4 home games for Reading. That's gotta hurt.

    Considering we're gonna win, scored 3 and they're down to 10, I've barely enjoyed a minute of this game :D

    Loads better from Gyok there, that's what you want with 5 to go.

    Think he's been poor back to goal. Movement has been good but lost out on a high percentage of balls when static with a defender up his arse, CBs are getting heads and toes to everything.

    Gyokeres has been bullied today with anything long.

    If that was Hamer's 10th booking, surely it would make sense to have given Allen 30 minutes, even at AM, if he's the one that will be covering in his absence.

    Poor old Allen, 3rd choice behind Maatsen and Shipley for that AM role.

    Awful defending from Maatsen

    The Bidwell signing has troubled me from the start. On paper I get it, 300 games at this level and a permanent signing in a position we had little back up in but..... he'll be expensive in comparison to most of our squad and on the back of the Kane signing I was concerned that we were just...

    3 completely unneccesary first half bookings for us.

    He's been poor back to goal so far today

    They are defending very narrow and pretty deep so both our wingbacks having plenty of space and lots of the ball. Neither have the pace or skill to beat a man though so we've had a lot of possession and not much else to show for it since the Gyokeres chance. They look like a team that would fall...

    One fo those that looked like a great save but I bet will look poorly placed on the behind the goal replays.

    It's a fucking shit service blocking all Overseas viewing because they've sold the rights to a couple of countries. It can't be that hard to coordinate where the games are being shown. It's not even on paid channels out here. I can find a stream easily enough but there's been a lot of games not...

    Refereeing

    I feel he goes down too easily at other times which might count against him when they're genuine.

    Moore 8 - Solid and +1 for his assist Kane 7 - Best attacking outlet we had today, outside of kicking it straight to Gyokeres, but thought his crossing wasn't quite up to his usual standards and got tired fast. Hyam 6 - Steady but nothing spectacular today and got done a bit easily for the goal...

    Match Thread City v Blackpool Tuesday

    I'm watching this 2nd half in black and white. With Blackpool having Gerry Yates and Ken Dougall I wanted an authentic 1960s football experience.
