Great to be winning but a poor game so far. Looking at players average position in the first half and only Kermogant has been in the Norwich half as an average position.

Norwich look shocking so far though. Totally devoid of confidence.

Out of false third into a more realistic 5th place

On bus home. Quick thoughts:

- Penalty massively changed the game and without I think we would've lost. Kermogant a very lucky boy (but he was otherwise good today)
- Baffling by Alex Neil to take off their no. 9
- We were much more assured after JVDB came off and Evans came on (although I can't remember if this was before or after the red card)
- Cracking hit by Harriott

Not often you see Reading making the main sports page of the BBC.

Joey was subbed just before the penalty.

Great win, not the best game but still quite exciting. Forgot my gloves ...

Amazed kermy tried to get onto the penalty rebound after he hit the bar. WTF is it with us and pens. we really are shit at them.
one attempt on goal in the first half, 13 in the 2nd tells you all you need to know really.

Agree with all that. Once again played crap but won comfortably.

Admittedly watching from home but I thought after the 10 min spell where Norwich should of gone 2-1 up we started to go forward with purpose again. When the pen was given we scored in the melee anyway and think that would have really have knocked the wind out of them. The red card obviously helped though.
