Can't remember a royals team with that much technical ability for a while.

Olise is class, be good if we can hold onto him until the summer

These lot are clearly playing for the gaffer, nice to see some belief in both directions

I think I love this team more than the 106ers.

[From Despair To Where?]

With 9 games in 27 days, you don't get many chances to wind it down so, fair enough. Comfortable win, we did what we needed to.

VAR would have sent Cafu off there.

Yep after a v good refereeing performance for around 70 minutes; he then fell apart.How the hell did Son not get booked ? Left his foot in every time.

Olise will not go anywhere in January. Given the owners’ record of selling players he probably won’t be going anywhere next summer either. Trouble is I don’t think Reading will be able to persuade him to sign another deal with them unless they get promoted.

[WoodleyRoyal]

To play on Wednesday night away in Sheffield and be the early game today, and show level of work rate is outstanding. We seem fitter and stronger that the opposition. Credit has to the coaching staff to get us ready in such a short turnaround.

Here's to Forest and Derby continuing their tallest dwarf contest in League 1. Both dreadful teams

Plus 1.....if Wycombe can finally find the goal today could be in the bottom 3 with Derby and Wednesday......what dream.

[bcubed]

Experts bigging up Olise, not surprisingly

Matt Mills says he must be worth 30 or 40 million. What are you his agent?! Says Viv Anderson

WTF

[yuomi]

Morro up for the post-match with Sky and no sign of Olise. Says "We've got use him while we've got him" he says. Couldn't agree more.

Brilliant today. Did everything we had to without ever really leaving 3rd gear. Bring on Brum.

[Snowflake Royal]

Is that 4 unbeaten now? Not quite the crazy start, but back in the game.

[CountryRoyal]

I know we had the man advantage but so good to keep a clean sheet again. Need to build on this now.

[skipper]

Is Houghton drunk in his post match interview?

Saying we didn't have any clear cut chances?

We had dozens. We just weren't clinical.

Olise stats vs teenagers across Europe is also incredible.

[WoodleyRoyal]

Well what ever we do come end of season we are financially ok now. Get promoted and were minted, don’t and we have assets that will get us out of any financial difficulties. The future is bright from here on in.

It does help when most of the two games was our 11 v their 10.

Still, I agree with your point that fitness does not seem to be an issue and by being so comfortable today the manager could make sure that key players did not have to play the full 90 minutes.

Slightly dodgy stats though, comparing him to teenagers in top flights. Should have compared him to those in second divisions.

[Franconian Royal]

Thanks m8

In terms of watching on IFollow it only matters if it's a live main game on sky, not on red button.

Just PMd you....?give it a go. Way better.

Can't access it Sky, I live in Germany, but thanks m8. I've not received a message from you Ascot.

Championship is broadly equivalent to most European top flights outside the major powers like Italy, Spain, France, Germany, Netherlands, Russia, UK, Portugal.

Russia?
I'd say the Champ is almost the equivalent of all the top flight divisions in Europe if you took away the top 4-6 teams

[Einstein agogo]

Russia !
