Shipley shouldn’t be close to that starting 11 for a start if he knew the game was over at 2-0 as he said in his interview why didn’t he just go 2 up top and just have a go at them
The tactics and selection weren't the reason O'Hare missed his chance or Ostigard missed from 5 yards. The tactics weren't the reason Hyam overhit the pass and Fadz got sent off.
I'm not saying Robins is faultless and that he was faultless last night, but that result was on individual errors, not Robins' selections or tactics.
Yes the loss last night wasn’t about Robins, Shipley or Hyam alone. It was about missing chances before Reading got started, it was about calamitous errors from our players and it was about Reading having key individuals who were better than anything we have. Sometimes you have to take it on the chin.
I get that, but I think it’s one of those ‘saying the quiet part loud’ moments. Teams can and do come back from 2 down not that uncommonly especially with half the game to play.
