Reading blog this after the match, and knowing the result. So the comments are absolutely hilarious.

It it works don't fix it

Reading are poor. If we want a) mid table b) less stress for fans - 2-0 would be nice I am by nature one of the more gloomy at pre-match forecasting, so this is bold for me

Mark and Adi's SBA doesn't quite flow...

1. If we took him, we would have five suitable (to a greater or lesser extent) strikers - MG, TW, VG, MW plus this guy. This represents a substantial upgrade on last year, but seems profligate when considering the weaknesses elsewhere. 2. Yes, Britain would be the attration - if he gets noticed...

Allegedly Man City made £110m in selling & loaning young players - so buying Grealish keeps within FFP. Nothing wrong with it at all, just the market working quite well actually. Having a sugar daddy is the problem.

We are employing a footballer, not a political leader. And nor should we be endlessly punished for past indiscressions. You are punished for the crime as approriate, not given a life sentence. We don't need another right back right now, as we only have limited cash. But that is a footballing...

I thought MacAnthony's response was wholly proportionate and correct. Trawling old social media for past sins is a modern day Spanish Inquisition. The person scouring the net for an inapproproate comment by young, immature men is the twat here, not MacAnthony

There is a generously spaced obituary of George in The Times today. Behind a paywall I guess (I saw it in the paper version). Those unaware of just how totemic a figure he was in our history might find it interesting One of my favourite chants will always be 'George and John's Sky Blue Army'

Are you one of those commenting on the match saying 'we should have had 3 by now?'

We have to learn to put games to bed, and thoroughly so. Our inability to do so has been a consistent theme of Rpbins v 2. ...not least for the health of fans whose hearts are at risk of serious damage otherwise

I would be gobsmacked and more than a little puzzled if MR did not stick with the starting line up from Blackpool. It was not just the win, but the manner of it. Having one of his lesser players - Allen - perform so well was a real bonus. I hope there has been lots of training on the back 3...

Given that Robins can only take one more new player in, I think we saw last night exactly why he is focused on acquiring a LWB rather than a central midfielder. The current first choice LWB is inexperienced and dodgy deffensively, the back up, just plain dodgy. Robins 1 SBT nil.

Moore v quick off his line

But we all want shot of Allen and Shippers and Pask has been told he should look elsewhere. Do we really want DaCosta

We should have avoided Bright (unless he was an absolute give away). We a have a lengthening number in the bomb squad. And we want to take Wilshire - surely not. On a pay per game basis would be the only way.

When I follow on the game via this blog, what usually happens, is that when everybody shouts that it is a glaring miss, when I come to look at the clip after the game, the player is often off balance/ ball behind him/surrounded by defenders (delete as applicable) and that at best it was a half...

Crikey Bright & Wilshire....surely not

Robins is also a cute cookie about what he says in public. Often quite oblique. I have always thought that was one reason why SISU like him. Not a gobshite like Mowbray.

Defeat. Maybe even a bad one...
