    We need a midfield three, we struggle to build through the middle of the pitch and we either go wide or go long and it's not working. Fraser is so crucial to maintaining possession and advancing it down the pitch, Watson has been good but I can't understand why Fraser doesn't come straight back into the team.

    we seem to be playing the long balls to the wrong wing... another over hit ball for Tedic to chase.

  • Worst form in the league but we're making them look good 
    I wouldn't go so far as to say they look good.

    We're gifting them some opportunities but they are too crap to take them.

    Yet ...
  • Meanwhile, back at the Jimmy Seed End ...

    A Charlton corner ...

    Hector showed his class there, we were in trouble

    Really good front foot defending from Hector. Has a clearance that nearly falls for Tedic. Button punches away for a throw.

    Then another good foot in from Hector.

    Please keep doing this Hec and cut out the mistakes. 
  • Quick thinking from Button as he charges out to double-fist a long ball out for a throw before Teddy could get to it.

    Now our free kick just inside the Reading half ... and out for a GK.

    0-0 21'

    Slowly getting into the game a bit, but we do seem to spend far too much time fannying about in any build up...

    Better from us last 5 or so. 

    Lack of any attacking ability in the wingbacks limits us massively.

      Offside, Reading. Harlee Dean tries a through ball, but Sam Smith is caught offside.
