MATCHWATCH : Mansfield Town (h)

[Hound]

A wet miserable 2-0 defeat

Not forecast to rain is it?

[Marcel]

Looks like we've sold approximately 9,163 tickets for this so far (standard caveats). Mansfield appear to be bringing down no more than 500.

Which will mean no more than 6k bother to show up.

Your grounds too big for you

[Hound]

No Roberts again? Also surprised to see Stokes not involved

A wet Wednesday night, no Stokes?

[Pepe the Horseman]

Maybe we do need a new LB.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Our bench is looking so much stronger now than in the last few seasons.

[traff]

Their right back Nathan Moriah-Welsh will have a field day against Dorsett.

[morganb]

Maybe we do need a new LB.

Any free agent left backs available?

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Was really hoping we wouldn't need Dorsett any more.

[WestYorksRoyal]

We clearly didn't do our homework with the Roberts signing. The guy is never available.

[WestYorksRoyal]

Dorsett has not started the session well, but if you look over his whole Reading career he's been dependable enough. Just feels like he's the scapegoat of choice right now

[Greatwesternline]

If Reading don't win this the mood in camp fan as well as squad will be incredibly low and will spell trouble ahead.

[Sutekh]

Maybe we do need a new LB.

Any free agent left backs available?

How fit/good is Ryan?

Sturday’s opponents, Blackpool, at Barnsley tonight.

How fit/good is Ryan?

Ryan is also injury prone. He has looked good on the few occasions I've seen him though

[Brogue]

Sky sports + is so shit. Keeps cutting out

[6ft Kerplunk]

Pitch looks better. Are the floodlights a bit dim or are the too bright advertising hoardings mucking up the TV camera brightness control?

[Pepe the Horseman]

Dorsett has not started the session well, but if you look over his whole Reading career he's been dependable enough. Just feels like he's the scapegoat of choice right now

Can we scapegoat Paudie instead? He's fcuking useless.

[6ft Kerplunk]

Can we scapegoat Paudie instead? He's fcuking useless.

Not sure he's even been that good so far tonight.

[windermereROYAL]

Not great is it.
