Agreed, down to 10 men, 1 goal from a peno and we lose 2-1. Still confident. Also, I like the fact commentators are admiring our offensive play.

Mmmmm scored 4 goals - same as Chelski. 1 point behind Chelski in the table so far. Man City yet to score a goal. If we keep scoring we have a chance........

So you're content with our wafer thin squad are you?

Injuries and suspensions are already starting to bite and we have sod all cover.
Surely thats a record?
Not saying that we're going to go down but we are taking an almighty gamble. We got off very light with injuries and suspensions last season. We may not be as fortunate this time around and surely no one can claim that we have a strong squad in depth for the Premiership.

But you can pay them (and their agents) good money to join us. How come we appear less attractive to players than Watford? Or are people going to claim Boothroyd doesn't know what he is doing and is just another Warnock in the transfer market?

here's positive logic....

RFC beat Middlesborough 3-2
Middlesborough beat Chelsea 2-1

Therefore:

RFC beat Chelsea 3-1

RFC to win the league.

Wouldn't it be better to say it like this...

Reading beat Middlesborough, Middlesborough beat Chelsea, therefore Reading are better than Chelsea and Middlesborough.
