Snowflake Royal I think he might be the best finisher I've ever seen play for us.


Yes literally that's what I was thinking, but people rightly mentioned Curo and Le Fondre. Taking level out of it (you can only play whoevers in front of you) I don't remember ever thinking abotu Curo or Le Fondre "he's more likely to score this than miss it". They popped up at the right time but Marriott is another level.

aaaaaaand........... he's just managed to miss one just as I type this :lol:

He's the anti-Brayson.

Marriott's in, I don't need to watch, he'll score. Vs Brayson's in, well that's not going to be a goal.


anti-Brayson! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: love it

What I love about the goal is the confidence. This is a striker in the form of his life, he just takes it early with power and conviction. Bang. No chance for the keeper due to the power. This form won't last forever, but for now just enjoy watching a Reading striker playing at his peak

1 shot on target from 5 to Bolton’s 3 from 8 though.

2 yellows (Doyle & O’Connor)

Missed the easy one though. Can’t wait for MOM to be back again.

Lane's not very good.

Jinxed it now. He'll get the second goal

He's defended pretty well, helped out plenty at the back.

Lane surrounded by about 5 there. Did everything he could, but nothing on and no hope.

oxf*rd off! Doyle did so well to keep possession and then oxf*rd Paudie just spaffs it long straight back at them. Think you oxf*rd morons.

Think that's an accident, but looks really nasty kick to the head.

He's been afraid to blow his whistle all evening. No way he was going to show a red card.

So you're allowed to kick players in the head now?
