Blackett can look good to the opposition because he's constantly taking fancy touches and looks quite skillfull for a defender. It's harder to notice his consistently poor attention span or decision making, or realise he's been running into trouble every game for 2 months.

Reading v Barnsley: an opposition perspective

by GeordieAl » 03 Jan 2018 13:14

Hi Royals

I know I'm a bit late (I always am) but enjoyed reading a few of your threads for the Reading-BFC match. I thought it was an appalling game, a team not good enough (us) versus a team who'd come for a draw (youse), though my mates preferred to look at the game as an improvement on our performances lately (THAT'S how bad we've been).

I also went to the Reading away game. I must admit, I had as little opinion of both teams then as well, despite 3-0 sounding like an overwhelming victory.

Good luck,

Geordie Al

it sounds like a sh*t game between two teams who may well go down

can see why Reading are struggling, no intensity, trying to play from the back but on today’s evidence not the quality of players to execute the plan. Played into our hands especially as we really seemed up for it


I thought Reading were poor and toothless
Lack of confidence...


A Reading fan said it was the pitch and strong winds today. My view was they was out classed out musseled and out played, but then again I'm a Boro fan.you can't even make it up


I just wish we'd bloody won today with such a good opportunity. I didn't once think we'd lose that today and forgot we were laying a championship side. Felt like we were playing a side below us in the league that we should have beaten but didn't create enough clear chances.

Can't argue with any of that.

I came away wishing I was a Stevenage fan and could watch that level of desire and aggression and will to win every week

Part of me wants to and part of me doesn't.
