Good start. Longwijk looks very strong. I'd like another way to attack than lumping it to Lubala, the smallest man up there. He's getting crowded out by big Wigan right now
Our midfield have been fantastic on the second balls though. It’s not about Lubala keeping it. 30 yard pass ends up 5 yards back in our direction and 25 yards gained because Potts Scowen and Butcher are all fantastic for this level. Really impressed with our layout.
He’s gone to a 5 today like he arguably should’ve done at Reading- in my opinion. Pleased to see it today. Assume next sub will be Taylor off and someone closer to Vokes.

Solid but uninspired so far.
We’re playing some very nice football.
If you don’t buy a ticket… Get in!
Here we go
That's what you get when you play a children's book character in goal
Luck has definitely started to swing in our favour recently. We have started well though. Very well structured defensively. I’m impressed.
Need to test Tickle more. If you’ll excuse the expression.
We need to have the balls to take more shots from distance.

Only thing that’s annoyed me about that goal is PA have given it as a Tickle own goal. Yes it deserved to be an og. But it wasn’t.

Scowen employed in Bloomfield’s old role - I’ll call it the ‘ball winning 10’. It’s gone down an absolute treat so far at Reading and today.
Love seeing our defence matching their physicality.
Some of the best passing football this season. But, yes, more shots from distance please.
Solid first half. Well done boys!
Really enjoyed that. The middle five look great.
Really impressed first half. Knocking it about well. We look solid at the back too.

Good game so far. And I’d forgotten how much I like ‘What do you want from me?’ by Monaco.
Where’s KVY? Is he injured?
Yes. Quads.
Vokes is not enough - I'd like Sadlier for Campbell too, and Kone sooner rather than later.
No yellow for that? Extraordinary.
How is that not à yellow
Did we just go....gulp...five at the back?

Five at the back only ends up with us concededing
Yes
Hail, Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
Too early for Vokes, no high press now and its constantly coming straight back at our goal.
It feels like we are just waiting to concede. Weird how supporters can feel it (hope I am very, very wrong).
