I don’t know how we’ve won that. What goes around comes around though. Maybe that’s in return for barnsley away.

Course I do, it's all about winning.
Didn't really have any viable subs left.
Not gonna bring on Howley or Tavares for their debut in that situation.
Can't bring Jones on for Gyokeres.
So that leaves Fadz (and Wilson).

Another game Tuesday, there’s just not respite from fixtures at the moment. We are gonna be out on our feet.
Thought Hyam was excellent second half. Gyokeres was a nuisance for their defence. Otherwise it was a dire performance but 3 points is what matters. Jamie Allen should have come on much earlier. Shipley did nothing but give the ball away. How can he possibly be a better option than Allen or Jones??!

Robins decision to give reading a chance by evening it up 10 v 10 is absolutely baffling. To still make the change after we've just scored is even worse.
When Allen's warming up, I'm looking around and thinking, he genuinely has to take Shipley off here.
I'm delighted we won but I actually take alot of concern from that game. How Shipley is now his go too man I have no idea but its very very concerning

If we win either of our next 2, we are level with Forest (in 7th) - it's still so close around the top. Hamer 2 match ban doesn't help. but at least we are still thereabouts. 44 points not too shabby at this stage. On reflection, thought Sheaf was great again today.

And yet we still won't make use of 3 subs.
Fucking madness.

Reading did not deserve to lose that, I'm sure if they played like that for the rest of the season they will be fine
We were poor for most of the game. Take the three points and move on

23 points above relegation zone. Would have stayed up last year with 44 points

Results mostly went our way today. Such a pity the owners just don’t care enough-we really could’ve done something this season.

If we did start playing that way all the time and winning 8/10 games, the fans would totally start owning it. Phrases such as "streetwise" and "expert shithousery" would get thrown about.
As I said above, there were no other viable subs left.

Poor performance but it’s the three points which count, need to get another win on Tuesday to put us right in the mix.

We scored our second and they were back gobbing off at home fans (fine). One of the lanky bastards got on his chair and came into our row and stood on my foot, I pushed him off and it kicked off slowly from there. Stewards came to warn us but they wouldn’t give up and it sort of boiled over.

If they could care a little more maybe next year then? I may seem eternally optimistic and defensive of the owner and club but I do understand the frustration

Allen for Bidwell
Tavares for COH
Anyone for anyone the most knackered
We’ll be dead on our feet next few games and we aren’t even using all the subs
I personally wouldn’t be throwing Tavares on when we are playing poorly in a tight game

Don’t think 5 mins here or there makes a difference. Starting game after game does though

Against 10 men when we are struggling for energy all over the pitch I’d say it makes sense
