East Grinstead Royal I thought the suspended points deductions related to pitch invasions and abandonments?

There is another one for that, but there is no way that is getting triggered.

From Despair To Where? Vale lost, Ian

The problem was our points hadn't been updated in the table at the time, so I was still working to 49.

0 (2).

Vale can no longer catch us. Cheltenham or Burton could, but not both, because they play each other.

FT 2-2. With Port Vale and Cheltenham both losing that means Reading are now 10 (TEN) points clear of the bottom 4. Port Vale (21st) don't have enough games left to be able to reach 50 points and Cheltenham can only do so if they win all 4 games they have left but would have to make a good 20 goal ...

Admittedly, we've scored a ridiculous number of screamers this season.

But if the forwards would just play more for each other and try to set up easy chances rather than smash it in from 20+ yards all the time, we'd have won this comfortably.

tidus_mi2 Oh FFS, Button on for Pereira

Did it look a bad injury?

Took a boot to the head. Small cut. Tbh, very sensible to follow a concussion protocol and take him off.


OFFS

Unbelievable.

How. Just how.

We're looking very open and tired.

Very little out ball.
Barnsley doing well to make the pitch big tbf

I really don't rate Mukairu. He's just not very good. Too many mistakes and poor decisions. Surely not here next season, so why is he playing at this stage?

Elliott's been going to the Harvey Knibbs school of stealing the ball high up the pitch.

Having a good game.

Defence is a bit chaotic. They're getting exposed a fair bit on the counter. And not clearing their lines brilliantly.

Chameleon Smith could have had a brace if people actually passed to him instead of going for glory.

Yeah, Mukairu in particular needed to set him up.

But 1-0 so no damage done yet.

Barnsley are pretty route one, aren't they.

Reading spent the second-highest amount on agent fees (league One) in the last 12 months only Derby spent more than £434k I am rather surprised by this given all of our spending restrictions anyone. Is this needs must, or do we deserve less sympathy than we thought? Are you? I’d have thought it was...

Ambiguity, the curse of the internet ! It still seems reasonable to suggest that a decision put forward as being bad might not actually have been bad over the longer term. The appointment of Selles would have been considered bad by many, but has proved to be pretty good. Just shows you have to give...

Of course it's oxf*rd stupid. If we never did anything oxf*rd stupid none of us would be here or support Reading.

So if Champions is 136 Auto is 133? - win everything except the two against top... one of which is a draw... POs 108? I'm relatively confident on that... That's all good. But then for 20th, you need the max points the team in 21st could get whilst still being 21st, so pretty low totals for the top h...

I think I preferred my way of just going with the max and letting games played take care of it quickly.

Brain currently melting.
