I thought Mbengue was the worst thrower of the ball in our history. Can't remember any Reading player getting so many foul throws. But he's definitely redeemed himself tonight.

I hadn't realised how low in the table Charlton were. I assumed they were midtable.

With them and Fleetwood next, if we can string these results together, we could see ourselves midtable.

I don't want to get ahead of myself, but on the last two games I've been to and seen, we are not as bad as the table suggests.

Alright, calm down. Let's just focus on winning the next two games and seeing if we can just be midtable.

What time do we think Dorsett will come on for Mola? 62?

Throwing is fine, it's his feet being on the ground behind the line that's his problem.

64, with Craig on for Savage as the double.

I'd be happy with that.

Stevenage have imploded. Let's hope they don't find their composure.

They're a team in form who are used to winning. Can't rely on this continuing.

Third time this game I've seen Bindon with some calm clever control in a tough situation. Cool under pressure.

Went to sleep on both the corner and throw then. So nearly conceded.

Mola is awful on the ball but his defending at the back post is some of the best I've seen from a Reading full back.

Need to tighten up. They shouldve had a couple now.

Bolton v Cambridge has been abandoned due to a waterlogged pitch
Burton v Cheltenham never started for similar reasons
Bristol Rovers 0-2 Fleetwood Town
Exeter City 0-1 Peterborough United

Jamie Reid obliging nicely at the moment but it's getting dodgy.
