Prior to Al Habsi's arrival we were linked with Foderingham when out of contract at Swindon. Now well down the pecking order at Rangers and with our goalkeeping situation seemingly undecided, could he be the answer, possibly on a loan deal? Hammersmith boy so would be a lot closer to home... "...
I’ve been saying for ages that Barrow is part of the problem. He’s wasteful going forward and poor defensively. Compare him to McCleary who’s positional sense is so much better. Barrow will be gone in January if Clement is still manager. We look much better having some “decent professionals” in the...
Think 5 is a bit harsh for GMac & Swift, but each to their own. Thought Blackett had his best game in a long time. No worries mate. Just my view. I like Swift but he really seems to struggle to run at pace. In the first half he didn’t track back leaving their player free to run into our box. He...
That was a very long second half. Real backs to the wall stuff in the second half as Millwall dominated. Still a win is win. Let’s hope this is the start of something better Jaakkola. 8 A revelation. Kept us in the game in the first half Yiadom 6 Always looked to get forward Moore 6 Struggled in th...
How did McCleary look? SS highlights make the penalty look 100% nailed on. Rubbish challenge. Did it look different from another angle? Did 70 odds mins (or thereabouts). For someone who has been out since Feb(?) and not even been on the bench as part of his return he looked pretty fit & sharp ...
Enjoyed that - certainly more fun than the 5-0 drubbing at Fulham (my last away game). Should have been a win, but would have taken a point beforehand. Real ale in a plastic glass surprising good at The Griffin. 10/10 for the fans in the downstairs standing area. Not sure who was shitter - the ref o...
Summary: - What a relief to get a home win - Yiadom again impressive, Can’t wait to see him in his natural position with Obita at LB - Kelly and Bacuna both turned up, impressed with both - Why didn’t Barrow start, our most dangerous player, something going on there? - Sims 10x the player Aluko is ...
That was a far better performance than i’ve seen in a very long time from Reading. After the Palace game I put the Judas bet on as it didn’t look like anything had really changed. However, this was very different - the players really looked like they were up for it. 4 shots on goal in the first half...
If the fee really is about 1m, that’s an absolute steal Our 4 forwards for the season have cost about 4m combined, which kind of puts things into perspective a bit when you see Leeds spunking 7m+ on Bamford In fact, take Aluko (what a weird signing that was) and Ilori out and we are proper bargain ...
Not particularly. There's nothing wrong with what we've been trying to do other than we've failed to succeed. Change that and we've basically got to start again and have wasted years with thr academy. The definition of insanity - doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.
Didn't Meyler, Yiadom, Meite and McNulty all feature? They did feature and that is my main concern. New players but nothing new in the style or tempo. Meyler did same job as JVB Yiadom was steady but didn’t don’t offer much going forward but so is Gunter Meite no service so it didn’t matter who it ...
My issue with today was how similar we still looked to last season. Still messed around at the back Still passed sideways too often Still very slow in our passing Still no second gear Still no plan B Any team playing against us will find it easy to defend as we play across in front of them a lot an...

Job done today. Let's give Clement the time to sort the squad out over the summer. Am finding the love fest for Bolton very embarrassing :oops: Parky's record as a manager is woeful. Karacan is dreadfully injury prone. And Alfie is 31, and far too old to even contemplate bringing back to RFC. Get o...
Clement did the right thing. Players utterly let him, the fans and themselves down YET AGAIN. None of this is Clement's fault as he has largely had his hands tied by injuries and suspensions and general crap from of those aren't injured and suspended. Not sure Clement did the right thing calling ou...
