Reading Post Match Thoughts

[CAMiller]

The end of a hectic week and the team showed some fight today but the result's the same to another promotion contender and the task is starting to look monumental. Is there hope of another miracle with KJ at the helm? Post your thoughts here.

PS What are we doing letting Ted Bovis score against us

Just noticed a strange pattern of results today in the Championship with eight 1-0, a 2-0 and a 3-0. Can't be often that there is no game where both teams score at least 1 goal.

So I was just about to post 12 games in the Championship, 12 wins and 12 losing teams all failing to score. Wonder if that's ever happened? Then Forest go and score a 91st minute penalty and ruin it

Seems like NW has that promotion in his sights.

Better performance. More balanced side.
Blackstock worked hard but did nothing bar win a few headers. All players solid 7/10. Draw would have been fair. Difference again (as 2 season ago Vs Wigan) al habsi. Reading keeper. 3 very good saves to keep it 0.0.

So much for 4 4 2

How much possession did reading have -

Very basic to start - BUT THE MANAGER DID WAVE..

Saw a better performance against Newcastle...Huddersfield......Should have been 3 points against a very average team.....think Izzy linking with Ward would have worked today....

Back to square one....
TS bottled it - when it was his plan AS was working to....and performances were getting better.....

Now we're struggling....long ball - playing for seconds .....

Time will tell....but all that money our new manager had with Wolves and failed.....This job for him is just that - A JOB....

Thought you'd left this board life before jackett

LBJ,you really are a muppet.
We looked a lot harder to beat,and everyone worked their boll*cks off,with a bit of luck,or a worse keeper we would have won that.
Think Kenny will get us winning,just might take a few games to get his plans working,but signs are there.

Villa the guy needs to see a doctor. Grief can be a terrible thing

Agreed. Was disappointed with Brown when he came on. Did enough for the draw a cruel goal after Camps heroics. Lets not forget this was Jacketts first game. He will have got a good impression of what he has and what needs to be done. Very encouraging.
