Wonder if east and frost are off in the next couple of days along with novakovich then.

Novakovich must be going in this window. I really can’t blame him. A real shame because I thought he was doing pretty well during pre season games.
Team selection seems sensible with first choice players rested. Delighted Obita captains the side. It’s almost two years since that agonising injury against Hull. Fingers crossed for him.

[Hound]

Guessing East etc are indeed off

Debut for Odimayo, good luck to him. Possibly a couple of more debuts from the bench

Chuffed for Obita - really hope that knee holds out

[Sutekh]

Nova is in talks with Zwolle over a loan move (or permanent)

Only 3 players tonight who played at Huddersfield...

[NewCorkSeth]

Delighted with that line up. Well done Gomes. Feck the cup, let's smash Charlton.

Subs: Virgínia, Morrison, Baldock, Boyé, Medford-Smith, Nevers, Coleman.

So it looks like a back four with Osho and Odimayo as centre backs and Howe and Obita at full back. . Adam presumably CDM. Rinomhota central midfield. Barrett and Olise playing wide? Loader ACM? Meite up top?

[Aeroguide]

And what was your wife’s reaction when you suggested this itinerary for your dream holiday ?

Wife and Kids have never been to England before. We are doing all the sightseeing as well as taking in the football matches and the kids ( 1 Son, 2 daughters) have been bought up to be Reading fans...from a long distance. The Wife wanted to take in English culture..see where the Mayflower set sail from, go to English pubs, see Castles, quaint towns and villages...We have been here for 4 days now. My eldest daughter
is putting together a video of her whole experience which she wants to put on youtube. To put it bluntly the wife an kids are loving being in England. Anyway been told (by the wife) we have to leave for the game! Predictions....Wife...Plymouth 0 Royals (She loves that name!) 3
Son..Plymouth 1 Royals 3 ( looking forward to seeing Loader)...Eldest daughter.Plymouth 0 Royals 1, youngest daughter Plymouth 1 Royals 2
Daughters Reading shirts for the next matches....
My son wears my old Elm Park AutoTraders shirt...even though it's to big for him....

[Snowball]

Hard to see us getting anything from this game now.

Very happy if I'm wrong.

Unlike others I never had a problem with Steve Coppell's approach to cup games. We have bigger fish to fry and these players need 1st team football.

Hey AG: I visited and went to a match back in 2010. Will be interested in tips with managing a trip of that duration. Definitely jealous!
