Keen to see how Burns does in a more settled side. He's talented enough to do well for us. Agreed, he had a few mistakes in him early on however, that was probably down to being a whole new team! His passing will be an upgrade as i really like him on the ball. Hopefully Williams coming off was just...

I`m happy to have a winger that wants to take on his man, he`s not always successful but it`s refreshing to see, welcome to a young Jimmy Kebe. He doesn’t manage anywhere near enough at the moment. He’s had a couple of cracking games and lots of very average ones Still think he’s more of a impact s...

For what's a very comfortable scoreline, it's all down to a 12th minute pen and red, and Plymouth then shitting themselves in their own box for the next ten minutes. Without that 10 minute spell, Plymouth have looked very good, and not at all a man down. Yeah you can’t really judge too much in the ...

I appreciate the win and the much needed three points. It is quite a culture shock to have gone from a side that dominated possession, both home and away, to one that surrenders it. Using turnovers and direct back to front balls to create opportunities. With a detached view of the match, it did look...

Don't forget the added bonus now of trying to get players in for what looks like a relegation battle. At least in the summer we'd just missed out on the playoffs and had new owners so looked a much better prospect than now. While I appreciate we might be in a relegation battle come January, this is...

Not going to be sacked. Couhig stated that Richardson was his choice to manage Reading when he first started the process of buying out Dai Yongge. Richardson has been patiently waiting in the wings for this to happen post takeover. It would be interesting to know what was so appealling about him. O...

It's almost as if, and bear with me here, if there are structural issues with a squad that has been playing poorly, it may - just may need more than just a new manager to improve things. It will involve amending the squad again to try and get the balance right. Naturally confidence will hardly be h...

Can’t really be arsed either but I may go. Might just watch it on tv though Dunno what I’d do for the team. 3 CBs does possibly sound better but I quite liked what LR was doing against Stevenage and Carlisle (before the meltdown) Maybe JP Abrefa Paudie Williams Dorsett Wing savage/Fraser DK Doyle K...

The annoying and worrying thing for me is we sack Hunt and probably rightly so, form wasn't great, the style was boring and the fans were turning. We get a new manager in who knows this league and has a good pedigree in this league yet a month in and we are playing no different than when Hunty was ...

Anyone who thinks we are going to bring in players up to standard who will improve the areas we need needs their head checking. We’re oxf*rd. Tbf based on who we signed I’m not especially optimistic Can't take Brogue seriously tbf, his anti Couhig agenda has been blatant from day 1. We were in a si...

No biggie really. Away defeat against a likely autpro side. Couldn't really expect more. The real (and only, so far) calamity was the awful last game, which is still shocking and indefensible. You've obviously accepted that we are a lower end/ relegation threatened league one club, to be honest, I ...

retro royal This is stam ball V2, mucking about with it in back 4, passing about in our half then long ball, full backs get no cover plus don't block crosses. As for O'Connor who the hell sanctioned a 3 year contract

His agents brother

Which I can live with if we build on it. If we have a mix of good performances and piss poor ones, then the objective over the summer is pretty obvious; bring in the right players who can help us bring in the consistency. We just have to be patient and accept it's the start of a long rebuild. Footb...

Saying that we lost the game in the first five minutes is worrying. We are at home and there is a whole ninety minutes left to turn it around. Playing with inverted wingers results in an inability to stretch teams out wide. When we are facing a team who have the lead, we cannot compress the pitch b...

With an AM you want a creative player, who understands space, with a good pass and a decent record for scoring goals outside of the box. I’m not sure why we wouldn’t put Wing in there. I get that the old/current idea is to have Wing deep so he can “quarterback” long passes into the final third, but...

Do the sensible thing and don’t have one. If there is an insistence on playing a 4 3 3, play a flat three that pushes and drops, in and out of possession. When Knibbs was here, he actually played more of a free role off of Smith, more than as a creative number 10. He was never a midfield player and ...

When Noel abandoned the inverted wing positions and played with natural width, i was happy that we were at least stretching teams wide and putting early balls into the box. The last three Noel games looked so much better. Now Richardson has pitched up and immediately gone back to the lack of natural...

Likely to be the best Redwood signing so far.
