My first (I think) match thread.
I have no clue which version of us will turn up.
I assume if there is a 'first' to be had for Reading, they will achieve it here, or if a player hasn't scored for 400 matches, he'll likely bag himself a brace in this game, or the first might be that they actually fill the stadium.
Nevertheless, I'm hoping, foolishly, that Sheff Utd was the new normal, and Fleetwood was the anomaly (albeit typical cup result).
1—2 with Chair and Willock on the scoresheet. |  | | |  |

I said it earlier, that this will feel like a win for the team and us. There is hope, where I could see none. We are a real Jeckyll and Hyde team...perfect for this league. I hope we start without Chris Willock next time out...he needs a rest to sort out his problems. Lowe sounds encouraging, and at last we have seen the real Tyler Roberts. Still lots to do, but I am much happier tonight than I was last week. |  | | |

98th minute Hull equaliser means we’re 11 points above the drop zone. |  | | |

Much better second half from us, more energy and willingness to go forward. Didn't think we were that bad first half but Lowe made a huge difference, you can see his quality. Kudos to Roberts for his brace, hopefully that will give him confidence to push on. Chair was brilliant I thought, always chasing, looking for space, taking players on. We need to find a central midfield partnership that works, though - Field and Tim I play too deep and leave huge gaps between the boxes. |  | | |

Lowe for Willock next match, no ifs not buts. | |

Well done Rangers. Scoreline felt a bit unfair at half time. Good to see the players react positively and come back in the second half. |  | | |

On a hectic, commercial partitioning job today, bit noisy and all go, so didn't listen. Checked in at half time, so to say I'm delighted looking in now is an understatement! | |

Feels like a win |
Funny isn't it, whereas Sheff Utd felt like a loss with the same outcome.

Get bodies in the box and in good position and we score goals. Who knew?
A game we could be winning and I thought we were going to go on and do so because Reading’s arse holes completely went.
I hope we can take something from that in regards to our mentality because they did show a bit second half.
Lowe looked lively and gives us something a bit different. Looking forward to seeing more of him. |  | | |

Bitter sweet. Having trailed 2-0 could have won against a mediocre team.
And we can score after all! Well done Roberts.
If only Willock could find some form but he's just a shadow of a few months back.
Lowe looks like he can make a difference.
Did we have four loan players on the pitch?
11 points clear of the bottom three.
So maybe we won't get sucked into a relegation battle after all.
A good run in this crazy division and who knows?
Field and hard-working Chair (although some of his crosses were poor) were impressive alongside Lowe and take a bow Roberts.
His first goal was superb.
That's a point worth its weight in gold.
And hopefully that will boost the confidence of our team. [Post edited 14 Jan 2023 17:16]

Hilarious thread!
We have some seriously pessimistic fans.
Thanks Brian a sane brain amongst a sea of shite. | | | |

Much better as the second half progressed. Why? We moved the ball quicker, that's why. Lowe was instrumental in that in setting up the first goal and from there we found a bit of mojo.
It's not rocket salad, and quite within our capability.
Football eh? |
Arugoala? Sorry. |  | | |

Think Critchley will agree with you about the mid-field, and will be looking to bring someone in. A spell on the side-lines...might focus Tim as well. | | | |

Blimey.
A Manager who gets us back in the game after the first half.
This is not our way, this is not what we do.
What’s going on?
We should be told
Sort it out | | | |

Omg. Stopped checking in at 2-0.
Looks like we may have found some cahoonahs after all. Good job. V difficult when confidence is low. I assume they realised they had nothing to lose and just went for it. Hopefully the comeback will give them a bit of confidence. | |

Yep, Tim wasn't great today. His previous flashes of skills and ability are far too infrequent and usually obscured by his silly errors. He'll be a very good player in the future but not, I'm afraid, for us this season.
4231 doesn't really suit him mind, but nonetheless Johansen will surely take his place next Saturday. |  | | |

Lowe changed that game and he got Roberts going as well and he looked a different player. Sorry but Taylor Richards is a no from me nearly cost us a draw. |
How about giving trhe lad a chance?
Go back and look at how many people were coating off Roberts at HT. |  |

Indeed. We could do with a less injury prone option as well, - so expect NC will be looking for one this month. JCS back in defence is also an option now. | | | |

Roberts took his first goal very well and was in the box for the second which was good. However, his overall play was, as usual, not that great even though everyone upped their game after the first goal including him.
We're not a side that can carry a player like Roberts who'll have occasional good moments and games. We really do need players who will be full on. | | | |
