Both sides probing but not willing to commit to risk taking. Still very impressed with our defensive structure. Tafa and Nigel have been excellent. They are exploiting the lack of mobility in Butcher’s territory quite well. Solid start.
Could someone maybe let the management know that Vokes isn't on the pitch ? Why are we knocking it long all the time when the only players in the team who can head the ball are in defence. The few times we've looked better is when we have kept the ball down.
What a scrappy half. We can barely put more than a couple of passes together. I was pleased to see “Gids” getting a start but he’s not produced anything of note. It’s all horribly frantic.
I wrote quite a long text during the game to someone who used to sit next to me in the FA stand. The game just hasn’t held my attention.
Pre season friendly intensity. All the players out there to create an attacking and enjoyable game but it seems the pre-match meal was suet pudding. Just so sluggish.
The Reading protest is quite amusing right now. The momentum to prove planning permission forbids Wycombe from using us it has slowed with the suggestion that they need to sell it to secure a takeover.
The camera work is abysmal today. The slow mo replays are even worse than usual - there will be a long passage of play where they are still showing someone picking his nose from what happened five minutes ago.

I think Robocop would pick up a knock playing for us.
Not out. On bench. Straightforward rotation I imagine
Oh I missed his name. My apologies. Great news.
Interesting to see Kodua start ahead of Campbell. I’m glad he’s getting a chance to show us what he can do, hopefully he takes that chance.
I am.perplexed by Campbell...plenty of chances to impress, Wembley on the horizon but he is still quite underwhelming for me.
Can someone wake me up when the square passing from them and the hoofball from us has stopp.🤷♂️

Well this is pretty dull stuff.
That Monthe looks good for them, sort of player we should look at... but now he's been booked we should be attacking him all the time
I’m so bored
Almost asleep here in the Frank Adams.
Our boys better watch it. The Banker has just bought a fancy training ground. He'll buy fancy players if they don't raise their game.
Thank god for that. Coffee and some chocolate to inject some excitement 🥱
Pre season friendly stuff.
Shall we talk about training grounds again?
Feel like I may have fallen asleep for most of that half

Our front four are all incapable of keeping possession. Butcher is also incapable. I wouldn’t want us to try and play out.

Or even God, unless you're thanking some random deity rather than "God".
Seems I didn't post this earlier, but feels like it's still the most interesting thing in the last hour.
I did wonder at times if MB had read and taken on board my suggestion.
Did both of the Reading protesters turn up?
Clearly all being told to clip it long. Even Potts is doing it. Incredibly dull fare - no wonder the crowds are what they are.
Blatt Moomfield?
Too slow
Totally agree @arnos_grove.

Get in Butch - first bit of real quality in the game and we score

Brilliant from Butcher!
