    It's gonna be a goal from a mistake that wins this game...

    Not sure whether people realise just how superstitious Robins is? When we're on an unbeaten run he uses the same piece of chewing gum until we lose and in between games keeps it behind Adi Viveash's ear.

    For the most part Cardiff have done exactly what i would have done against the team we have out. Crowd out O'Hare and Sheaf in the middle, let our wingbacks have the ball out wide knowing they can't beat a man for pace or skill, and let them cross the ball from relatively deep into a single...

    It is but need to mix it up a bit. Few times Sheaf has been begging for the ball and Fadz hasn't even looked up. The possession is very sterile. Only Sheaf in this team that is looking to play a quick clever progressive pass.

    Fadz by slowing the game down and only passing sideways, Rose has been sloppy in possession a few times when using his left foot.

    Exactly. Loads of possession but the stat is misleading. Fadz to Hyam to Kane to Hyam to Fadz to Rose to Bidwell to Rose to Fadz to Rose, 30 metre chip down the line and hope we catch a break from it. Cardiff just sitting back and crowding out the midfield options.

    Don;t think there's been a single pass into the DMs from Fadz or Hyam yet, it's all sideways and backwards which is pulling Shipley and O'Hare too deep a lot of the time. Rose the only one looking to really progress us up the pitch.

    There's definitely contact from the keeper on the 2nd one, but you're never going to get it 3 seconds after such a pathetic dive.

    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.

    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.
