Oh dear. Not surprised this team lost that. Shocking. Started off well, Selles changes the formation with Dean coming on. Unacceptable capitulation.

Wow, this one hurts, i really don't know where to begin. After 15mins we were so superior and they were so poor i really couldn't see anything other than a 3-4 goal win!! then Azeez just needed to hit the ball first time and its game set and match....i mean, really, what was he thinking, so so poor at any level of football. Its so easy to see the guy is running on zero confidence!! yet we have Elliott sat on the bench who oozes class and is by far our most technically gifted player by far, i mean what must Elliott have to do to get a start, we should be building the team around this guy. Next up, Knibbs, what was he playing at?… More →

You can imagine the conversation though: Bowen: "Hello . . . Mr Yongge? Yeah, so Selles isn't working out. We're going to need to make a change." Dai (via translator): "I'm not paying for a new manager." Bowen: "Sure, so I was thinking that I would take over." Dai: "No. Your job is to manage the sale of the club and keeping the EFL off our back. That's all that matters to me right now." Bowen: "I can get Noel Hunt to help me out." Dai: "No, just do the job you've been hired to. I really don't care what's happening on the pitch right now."

Exactly this....however, you would think the "Director of Football Operations" Mr Bowen would have the ability to ditch the manager if he feel fit to make that decision!!

This. SeLOLes substitutions are remarkable. He literally threw the game away with his decision making. I would struggle to believe that the squad are behinnd him.

The thing which agitated me the most was the lack of common sense and composure at the end of the game. As someone else mentioned in the match day thread all we had to do was retain possession, win fouls, throws, knock it in the corner, slow the game down if we don't have the ball but we didn't except for 1 attempt by WiFi to get it into the corner. Another shit tinpot team we lost to who had a 11 players I'd never heard of, who weren't better than us but we gifted them the win because are players are grossly incompetent at getting basics right in key moments. That first goal really angered me, as much as the equaliser and winner.… More →

+1 The story of the first half should have been what was wrong with the disallowed goal and how did Azeez not score - again to make it 3-0. Instead the schoolboy defending gifted them a goal and from that point on I knew we'd bottle it. When the utterly useless Azeez was eventually subbed he walked past the Reading fans and got cheered rather than jeered, but I guess at that point we were still clinging on to a lead. I don't want to see him start for a while. It was a miserable trip back.
