You get out what you put in and mick putting in two centre backs at wing back again meant 95% of crosses were comfortably dealt with by Reading’s centre halves. We were never in a million years scoring off a brown cross, they were high, miles away from Moore being able to do anything. Wonder what might’ve been had we had two wing backs that could swing in a decent cross.

On the plus side good to have Ralls back. And McGuinness did ok out of position again, have to wonder how he’s not been deemed good enough in recent weeks to get in ahead of Nelson and co at centre back.

We’re in bigger trouble than I thought if people think that was a good performance. More effort yeah (bare minimum expected) but completely devoid of quality again.
