FT: READING 2 - 1 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[G rangetown Blue]

McGuinness for NG would make us a lot more solid at the back. NG is no central defender, he’s far too weak, and suspect in the air. He cost us a few goals with errors last season, and almost gifted another to Norwich on Saturday when he gave the ball away straight to their no.10….thankfully Alsopp pulled off a fine save to stop us going 1-0 down. I think wing back (wide of a 5) is his best position

Would consider Ng as a better full-back personally, certainly don't think he's right at centre-back so I have no clue what Morison is thinking, does he have no faith in the others available?

Denham over McGuinness on the bench.

Tanner and Whyte the two to miss out as Philogene and Etete make the bench.

Expected O'Dowda in over Sang, a little surprised with that one.

I keep mis-reading it and confusing myself. Getting old is no fun.

Yes. O'dowda I thought looked good last week.
May have a knock who knows.

Just looked again, just as bad as you!

[Carl Dale's Mole]

I'm so confused. Why are people saying O'Dowda's not playing when he's clearly on the team sheet?

I just kept re-reading what a couple of posters said about O'Dowda/Sang and I must have stared at the team sheet a number of times.

Old age and not so good eyes mate

[Carl Dale's Mole]

All good, as long as I'm not losing my mind!

[G rangetown Blue]

Is McGuinness still suspended ?

And he just scored !!!!

[Former Labour leader]

We are top, we are top of the league@

[dml1954]

Is McGuinness still suspended ?

Why do you keep asking that ? He wasn't suspended last week.

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Allsop going long a lot so far.

[Maurice Swan]

Not tempting fate...bt we look very comfortable at the moment....

[Carl Dale's Mole]

Allsop going long a lot so far.

I wonder if it's because Nelson can't pass
