Team & Match Thread - Vs Reading CC

[Red Chilli]

Fowler is such a legend. I said we need Fowler to play as the fans need a lift. Now he's captaining and he's scored. It's all good.
Fowler should start against Villa

[Red_Polo]

He looks less inhibited tonight. Don 't know if it's because it's because there aren't any senior players around, of if he feels a bit more relaxed due to it only being a carling cup game, but he looks more the kind of player we'd hoped he'd be. His through ball for the first goal as outstanding.

Yep he's been one of those trying too hard to match expectations I think. Hopefully this'll do him some good and give him some confidence to do his stuff.

[Reece]

It's all part of the masterplan

[Red_Polo]

They were well saved. Nothing great. Keeper had to do a bit more with Zenden's chance. You'd expect a keeper to make the saves though. Two clear cut chances we've had we've scored.

Not often we can say that, long may it continue

[Tom]

Isn't it just. It's bliss watching the game with no comms and just "the natural sounds of a football match". It's almost like being there...except sitting in a cosy chair with a bifta and a cup of tea!

Yeah, proper game atmosphere, made better by the fact it's a night game. I'd almost be tempted to ditch sky subscription for this, much cheaper and more games.

Fowler's 3rd game of the season and his 2nd goal

[Red Chilli]

Should be Fowler and Crouch against Villa.

[Tom]

teams back out, reading goalie gets the usual aplause from the kop.

[Red_Al_77]

Can't see any changes.

[Tom]

Robbie's hair isn't looking good. You'd think he'd be able to afford to sort it out

[Red Chilli]

Come on Robbie! I can see more goals for him tonight!

[Tom]

zenden and robbie to kick off.

[Tom]

foul on crouch jus inside their half.

[Tom]

throw in reds, corner after good work from riise.

[Shaggy]

Pennant curls a Barnes-esque effort, cutting in from the left, saved. Nothing like Digger.
