Archie's penalty
papereyes Its the sort of game where we need no mistakes at the back and an absolute bossing of midfield by someone.

If Karacan, or Harper, or ... erm ... Bryn, step up to the plate then I think we've got a chance.

I think our issues relate to midfield. We don't have the quality (or the physical presence - not sure it matters so in the Championship) there, so if a team puts pressure on it or swamps it, we play with the spine of Stephen Hawking.


Totally agree. I think we can be pretty confident of doing something this year when a central midfielder starts to blossom.

It's a bit too early for Karacan but I'm hopeful. Harper hasn't played as well as he is capable of. Other than that our team looks very strong for the championship.

No-one's talking about Armstrong which surely is a good thing. I think we have our best team out there at the moment. Apart from maybe Matejovsky to come in.

Karacan is weak, needs to put weight on and then we might see him do better as a DM. But until then, we ******. Harps looks as if he's had a heart attack, no confidence and looks as if he's pushing further back. He's not got the confidence he had when Sidders was here.

Re: Reading 25 Away Team 0

londinium With the first 3 games of this season at home having been won and winning 19 of the last 22 home games in the Championship with the other 3 being drawn we have now gone 25 home games in the championship without defeat.... hope we can extent that to 45!!!

Along with the a continuiation of just the 3 defeats in the last 26 away from home would be handy.

Not quite 25-0 then is it? More like 22-3-0.

17 goals at home and only 4 away

With a veritable goal glut at home, but only 4 away what is our problem.

is it the set up from Sir Steve or just a mental block from our strikers.

Will we put this right at watford?

We have only played 3 away, but have 4 home games behind us, 12-0 it is then.

Huh? The four home games include the Luton cup game, but with the away games, you're ignoring the Dagenham & Redbridge game? :|

harper has no confidence and karacan needs that experience and confidence around him.

I've looked at the statistics and can confirm teams usually do worse away than at home.
