Their 1st goal was an absolute peach of a pass, was right behind it. RND sold an absolute kipper.
So I think Saito was our most dangerous player until he became their most dangerous player. After that any confidence left him. At 1-1 I felt we would still win, starting to look down not up. |

Great read, for so many reasons. So from my experience of leading a far larger business I would say there is an element of you can’t do right for doing wrong and vice versa. Harder for him as he has to satisfy not only employees but the amazing fanbase. From my personal experience and peers there is the obvious of not wanting to do a bad job, I really feel his motivation and decision making is for the right reason. We might not agree with his actions but believe they are made with the right intentions. We are in a better place as far as squad strength, win against Wrexham and I reckon there would be less criticism as we would be top 6. Heston, him representing us on the council, selling Dykes, Kelman and Armstrong for decent money massively ticks a box for me. I’m less on the fence than many. Clive ignore the rubbish, podcast yesterday was right up there with the best.

You know I’m a year older and still believe, can’t stop myself. Even Mr Elbow really wants to, don’t give up. Next season is the one, which will the title of my autobiography |

Mbengue available Friday and hopefully new striker, both will boost the bench. 9 starters pick themselves so 2 wide men from Smyth, Saito, Bennie and Kolli. Reckon Bennie will get the nod down the right, Smyth will surely start. Can’t think of a recent season where we seem to have the cover for an injury situation like ours. Personally would rather Sam played and stayed for all the obvious reasons, LB cover almost as important as midfield Field. We obviously trust our Brazilian |

I know the general opinion is that Steve Cook will leave at the end of season but today walking back to the car I heard his name mentioned as many times as Madsen and Kone in a massively positive light. Have to say the whole back 4 looked stronger without the madness at RB.
Van Dyke is the same age as Steve Cook and still near the top of his game, Cook’s reading of the game is brilliant and we have another captain on the pitch.
Wonder whether the extension also had a number of games played rollover. I know I am in the minority but I would keep him, I’ve also been to enough away games to know his standards don’t drop |

I have a free morning and just read Clive’s report when Poku signed. Over 180 EFL games played in League 2 and League 1 by 23 years old, clearly not a crock when we signed him. Reading it again made me think we do have a potential star in the building. I know nothing about hamstrings but if necessary don’t play him again this season in 1st team to make sure, Beale owes Chrissy Willock for bringing him back too early. |

Smyth Miss in 1st half almost as bad as the sending off. He had time the whole goal in front of him, at least get the keeper to make a save. 2-0 and the momentum that brings would have changed the game. Madsen getting better but really liked Vale in the 10 position, lovely passer. Unlike others my section thought Kone far better as an out and out striker, chalk and cheese compared to Oxford. Still can’t believe last 4 mins gotta get it out of my system as have the players. |

With you on the potential quality of the game. We haven’t played well in the league since Leicester. Surely some rotation tonight despite limited options. Field and Morgan surely in the picture but no other options up front. Banana Skin of a match |

Anyone know if we can recall Alfie? Seems a like for like ( if not as good) for Burrell and could warm up a spot on the bench |

Well he hasn’t played any games so should be a formality. Must mean Madman stays RB which is a good thing also, a lot of Reading fans said that was his best position anyway |
