Reading v Rovers

[Butty]

Been saying for months Bell should not be playing championship football, new left back needed in the summer more than any other position! He’s sooooo shit

[pick32]

Armstrong should of had a hat trick terrible team selections and if we lose 100% Mowbrays fault, Bell is awful

[AdamRochina]

Duh duh we are few points off playoffs duhh we don't need to sign anyone duhhhh ....fast forward and we are tumbling down the league with even the likes of the shambolic reading beating us at half time LOL

[Silas]

Bell could get away with crap defending like that if he was contributing anything going forward. 

[Tom]

Conway and one of Travis or Smallwood off at half time for reed and Dack please 

[Mr. E]

Sounds like we missed chance after chance and then got popped at the end.

TM definitely has to answer for this.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[DE.]

Worrying times. Another goal in the goals conceded column. It's alright though, Mowbray says defence isn't a concern. 

[Gogger]

Congratulations Tony. Your masterplan has worked wonders. Fielding a team of defenders and still you manage to go in behind. Rubish.

Reading score ....mowbray fucking clueless 

Really?   A good half form Rovers with three excellent chances and a bit of sloppy defending.  You are a troll.

[davulsukur]

Bloody awful from Mowbray.

[jim mk2]

Reading haven't had one attack of note and we hand them a goal. 

This is a soft side

Rovers fans here seem resigned to defeat

mowbray out 

[Mike E]

Smallwood off for Dack or Rothwell please.

Bell-end off for a traffic cone.

He said before the game that this season was all about consolidating our place in the Championship. Shocking lack of ambition.If your team has a chance of promotion surely you go for it?

It’s hard not to think that nobody cares about Rovers 2018/19 season at this point. Not even those people getting paid for it still.

Is 43 points enough? Because that looks like the point that we’ve taken our foot off the gas.

That starting line up though... ?

[barry_]

an absolute shambles

Mowbray is to blame for his shit selection.

Amari Bell has the determination of Williams (ie none)

Too many players missing - Conway & Travis might as well not be playing.

Brereton on the right ?

Slow and turgid footbal.

Mowbray paid a lot for Bell, paid a fortune for Brereton.

Mediocre.

Indeed - very good first half ruined by a slip in the last 60 seconds.

[jim mk2]

Reading fans here can't believe their luck they're a poor poor team and they're beating us

I suppose when you leave two players with 21 goals between them on the bench, then dominate a half and can't score, you deserve a bit of stick.

 

[Exiled in Toronto]

As much possession as I’ve seen us have, and plenty of it in their half. Didn’t create much but three really good openings hopelessly wasted by Armstrong (2) and Conway. BB has looked our best player. Bell, however, has messed up absolutely everything and for their goal. I’m also not convinced  Mulgrew is the centre back to have alongside a shite left back.

Get Rothwell on at HT and we’ll win 3-1

I’m starting to wonder if my claim that ‘Second is fine’ last season has rubbed off on the team. Last 2 or 3 games have been pants.

In fairness we’ve actually played well but why is our underbelly so exposed? Get some proper defending done at the back!

Sounds like the players/defenders do. If the team selected are creating chances, then surely the manager had done well hasn't he? He can't put the ball in the net or stop it. 

[Miker]

Ffs typical Rovers performance. Huffing and puffing but with no real end product... then the other side has 1 attack and they score.

Left back is a real problem area for us... and we have to get someone new in next season.
