Reading - Match Thread

They've just been dumped out of the FA cup too... but they had a 2 goal lead in the 90th minute against non-league Carlisle.

Patchy league form but a good record against us.

I hope we really go for them, big pitch so use the width and press aggressively.

Roberts and Pheonix wide for this one would be my choice. With Reid through the middle over Gassan.

Butler or Freestone will be a telling decision, safety first with Freestone or more attacking with Butler.

Glad Gassan is starting over Reid (despite everybody in the replies on Twitter moaning about it, but Reid has done very little for weeks and hasn't scored in months).

Also glad Freestone is back in ahead of Butler. And Goode ahead of Sweeney.

Harsh on Pattenden, who has been excellent, but good to see Luther back.

I am NOT glad to see Roberts start again, after contributing the grand total of sweet fuck all yet again at the weekend, when given a rare start of late. Hopefully being on TV he may decide he can be arsed today.

Expected a draw earlier today, but am a bit more confident after seeing the team. Not sure why. Still wouldn't say I expect or am confident of a win, mind.

Agree with that, but think Jasper and Roberts had serious communication issues last week.

I'm not a Roberts fan but he's our best option if Beryl is out.

Hassan hasn't convinced me he's anything but a big workhorse. Hope he proves me wrong.

Puts himself about, and seems to have a good first touch, I don’t think he’s good as a lone striker though.
