I haven’t seen much from Da Silva that says he is any improvement on Bidwell.

Pre or post Christmas Bidwell? He’s gone from being one of our best performers to really poor.

Did they sack Ince so he couldn’t renew his sons contract.

If Reading go down it would only be to the level they should be at.

next batch of games:-
Middlesboro v Norwich
QPR v Cov
Millwall v Preston
Rovrum v Luton
Stoke v WBA
Blackburn v Hull
some tricky match-ups in there, maybe another chance to close up on the others or leapfrog into the playoffs

Sacked with 5 games to go ? What do the board expect any caretaker to do with minimal time to fix things ? Sounds like Reading have been paying and playing above their true level for a while. If/when they go down, they really need to start again from scratch.

I'm really shocked at how much all the teams around us are bottling it too. With an exception of maybe Luton and Preston, there is a serious amount of flapping going on.

Preston will drop out the running imo, such a tough run in for them.

They're in dreadful form so just looking for someone to provide a short term new manager bounce. Ince is not a good manager so I think it has to be worth a try.

Another one bites the dust.

Given that he's presumably going to be unsettled at Reading I was going to suggest Tom Ince as a possible Summer signing, but just looking up on him I was surprised to see he is already 31. Seems to me he has had a fairly unfulfilled career given the promise he once showed.

Guessing they don’t have the confidence in Ince for a relegation scrap. Possibly a victim of their wrongdoings?

5 games is a bit late and flappy considering their bad form started ages ago. Hope they go down. Boring club.

Without the 6 point deduction Ince would of comfortably kept them up. Basically sacked due to the board over spending year on year and needing someone to blame.

Not sure about comfortably. They would only be 5 points from the drop without deductions and their form is shite and they've got shite run in. Would have been close.

Mate of mine is a Reading fan and says that Tom has been one of their better players this season.

Maybe it's not bottling and just a competitive league?

tbf, he'd probably be relieved! Utter basket case of a club, nice bit of cash for him while he waits for a proper club to need a manager.

Preston have been there abouts, but it seems they have come from nowhere, but if you look at their recent fixtures there is possibly an explanation. Wins against Reading, QPR, Blackpool, Rotherham, and Cardiff, and sandwiched between, a thumping at Middlesboro. It will be interesting to see how they do in their run-in, with games against Millwall, Blackburn, Sheff U, and Sunderland.

I'd certainly rather we try to sign Ince than Paterson, that's for sure!

When you look at Thomas Ince you have to wonder if he would have got as far if his name was Thomas Smith.

In fairness to him, his numbers are fairly good this season. 9 goals and 4 assists in 38 games.
