    Robins - CWR

    Allen played pretty well in his last spell in the team. Now he's been glued to the bench for the last few games while Shipley is starting and Bapaga getting time off the bench in front of him. I find that odd.

    The most shocking thing for me tonight is that there's still 400 people on the match thread!

    Awful cross field pass but absolute no need for McFadz to make that attempt to win the ball.

    This Reading commentator is what it would be like if we had Martin Winch instead of Clive. Just chatting about absolute shit.

    I do find the formation we play, with the players in it, so disfunctional. We play 2 attacking midfielders yet we're so static in the final third in possession and do so little attacking through the middle. We get to 35/40 yards out and the ball always goes wide to Dabo as our outlet, who...

    Terrible marking from Hyam and poor from Wilson. Wilson did nothing to commit the striker, was Burge-esque, started to go and retreated back into his 6 yard box so all the striker had to do was put his laces through it.

    Holy fuck, how has Osti put that wide, even worse than O'Hares. Should be 2-0

    Good to see Dabo bollocking the back 3 for being so ponderous on the ball.

    Relatively well by any anyone over the age of 35 or from Zimbabwe, Sweden or Morocco.

    Reading are such a bland football club.

    Match Thread Norwich FA cup

    Everything Shipley does looks massively laboured, he looks like he's run a marathon. Shoulders are drooped, head down, he walks 5 steps before he starts to run. Absolutely torturous to watch today. Can't believe he's not being screamed at by both team mates and management.

    Haha. That reverse pass from O'Hare from 20 yards out. Woeful. Shipley and Da Costa need hooking at HT from Dabo and Allen.

    Transfer Rumour Matty James

    Sorry to drag the conversation backwards. I'm not trying to join in the pile-on, rather just curious how you see the situation. So my question is..... What do you consider a dangerous area, given we play 1 up front and don't tend to either get many bodies in the box or run beyond the striker...

    O’Hare/Thomas

    They are different types of player but there is still plenty of similarities in their size, direct running/ball carrying, good quality first touch, the way the roll a man and their poor end product. I don't feel there's much correlation between the fouls and his assists though. O'Hare is...

    A Championship Club, how long will it take?

    Now we've seen the standard across this division it seems a lot less intimidating than it did at the point of promotion. Even with our low budget, our settled structure and clear recruitment policy mean we are already competing with teams who might have bigger budgets but are spending it with a...

    How can you book somone for timewasting at the same time as showing you are adding the time on. There's no time being wasted then!

    O'Hare. Not seen a game where someone has played so well with absolutely 0 end product since Luke Thomas was here.

    Who goes near post in that situation without committing the keeper first. O'Hare is so frustrating.

    Not even like it's 1 player either, they've shared them out.

    Oh god Hyam, you don't try to win the ball there, you just get your body in the way to block the shot.
