Played really well second half. Want to see more of this. Hopefully Morrison will scrap the 3 at the back going forward
So much better in the second half, actually did something with the possession. Was worried that Ng and Bagan wouldn't be able to handle a ariel bombardment but they never really got tested. Good to see Morrison changing it up at half time as well.
No complaints whatsoever from me today, even in the first half I liked what we were trying to do and we were very good after the interval. However, watching us play with that level of effort and intensity does rather beg the question, where was that last week? We played as if the big derby was this week and the meaningless, for us, end of season game was last week.
I understood that. Well done for saying so.
I just thought it was a weird choice, considering the reaction it may get. Seems a bit of a weird thing to say, it was a typo a lot of them get pointed out but personally if someone else with a teenage daughter had made it and I'd seen it I'd probably just leave it where it was tbh.
Oh well we move on.
First half we were the better side. We pressed well. Swift should have buried his chance. Second half Cardiff dominated without creating much. However there was a clear foul on Joao who was pulled all over the place prior to the ball being putting through for the equaliser. Thereafter there was only going to be one winner and it was a well worked goal.
We got what we deserved for a pathetic second half where our midfield was nowhere to be seen. You knocked the ball around pretty well.
We have some very tough games coming up and with Swift now out injured it’s looking squeaky again.
I thought how odd you have everything the opposite to how I seen it, then realised your a reading fan lol
I can’t see Barnsley or Derby catching you now.
I was shocked Paul Ince was in the dug out, I did know he was your manager but forgot. How’s he doing? Seems such a random appointment.
We were terrible in the first half and the boos at half time were entirely merited.
However, we were good in the second half and Reading were barely in the game.
We started the second half strongly and score two good goals - I really want to to the entire move leading up to Vaulk’s goal!
What WAS noticeable today was a complete change in style of play. Not once did Philips kick the ball long I don’t remember many if any long balls. It was evident that the players had been instructed to play out from the back in a manner that I can’t remember us doing before. And that is exactly how the second goal was scored - by moving Reading around through a long passage of possession.
Very pleasing to see.
Injuries and the points deduction didn’t help but in reality we have been poor all season.Very similar to 2017/18 when we only stayed up because three were three worse teams than us. We will probably stay up but it’s by no means certain. If we do survive it will be very fortunate. I have hated the season.
