leonWestYorksRoyal On this xG thing other fans seem obsessed with, it doesn't make sense.
Looking at the stats, our expected goals and expected conceded are very close. But they're different. Our xG is made up of a lower volume of high quality chances, which our in form strikers are converting.
The xG against us is a higher volume of low quality chances, which adds up to the same. But we have a good keeper, and you wouldn't expect him to get beaten by low quality chances often.
So basically, we're creating higher quality chances which we're converting, but our rivals don't consider it sustainable.
Tbf we need to bring Swift back to blaze a few randomly over to get our averages up.

I hope they fall away. No doubt some of their nobhead fans are already wondering how to reword their poncy 'record' chant.

Doing brilliantly but clearly some are suffering negativity withdrawal symptoms.
Swift's return will present our in form strikers with even more chances to convert and Puscas is pretty good at scoring goals when given the chances. Meite too misses sitters but scores great goals at other times.

Mate, I will do it next to you. And then I will donate my house to any charity.
As I said in another thread, thank god its them and not watford, Bmouth or Norwich pushing on. Reading are irrelevant and its not a case of catching them, it is a case of letting them fade away. I know about 20 Reading fans who I see regularly when playing football or at work and they all think they have already used up their whole seasons luck, they are loving it but they know they are rubbish.
think we may need to keep tabs on this one
