So much better from the City. I can see Hamer getting another yellow though - he's such a twit - what a stupid card to pick up. Dabo's clearly still not found his form or he's unfit. I can see MacCallum coming on at 60 minutes. Better from Shipperz and I think Max is playing an important role here too. You can lump the ball up to him and he'll win the flick on most of the time.

Dabo is improving

Dabo was crazy first 15/20mins but has now settled into the player we love.
Hamer finished off a great team goal.
Giles has been a fantastic attacking threat.
Shipley is a pussy in tackles but making those great runs into the box.
God and Max keeping the Reading defenders busy. At least we don’t lose the ball as soon as it goes up.
One of our best 45mins.

Keep forgetting how bad this presenter is. How the hell did she get the job, there must be better options.

He's got a proper Northern accent but he was born over here, moved when he was 10 I think I read.

And about Osti, just think he's a more mobile option and that'll be his position by the end of the season.

Good half. Looking better with 2 up top. O'Hare can come on around 70 mins too to give them something else to think about, Kelly can come on to stop Hamer getting sent off. Looking forward to this second half for once.

Difficult to do, but I would take off Hamer and put Kelly on and look at replacing Shippers (probably with O'Hare) after 15 mins of second half to get fresh legs on. Do think Dabo is still looking off it - still recapturing match fitness. and will get there - but if we don't gift them a goal, there main threat is the left wing. I'd definitely still take a point, but if you offered me 3, I'd have that too!

It was also his 5th or 6th foul of the half... I thought he’d be booked early just because he was a persistent offender.

Otherwise, he’s been very good.

We need to keep long corners coming in. We have a two man over lap when they mark zonal. Non of this silly short ones

The sky pundits gave him no credit for it oddly, it was all about it being a miss

Anybody else worried that Hamer and Ostigard are on yellows.....??......
Neither have been known to hold back despite that being the case....

The sky commentator said that both were ‘never penalties’. I don’t think the presenters have mentioned it yet.

Slovak and Czech are different languages. Slovak is actually closer to Polish than Czech (I actually do speak a bit of Slovak - good mate of mine from Kosice taught me some)

We have done well - you have to question why we signed walker and not a number 9 and why we don’t play two up front as Godden is much better

Hamer and Sheaf are far the best players we have but Hamer is a disaster on discipline - ostigard is equally reckless as well.

Crucial second half

He's lost a few 5050s. Why do we always have to be so extreme on this board? Dogshite or Messi level. There is an inbetween

He honestly couldn’t sound more English!! There’s not Slavic twang that I’ve ever heard?

Most Slovaks understand Czech completely, but some of the younger generation the other way round don't.

I have been learning both and there are a lot of similarities. If you know one, generally you can communicate with the other fine.

The positive for Godden with 2 up is he doesn't have destroy himself got 90 mins... And hopefully has the energy late on to get to a ball and score

David Prutton is a pretty good presenter, and I’ve seen a few times do the presenting. Generally quite versed on the EFL as he writes his weekly predictions and so on.
