I can almost live with Reading's defensive frailties if he would contribute going forward. He's been a lot better at that in the League Cup. It'll be interesting to see how he copes against Morton, ICT & Dundee United. A wing back works because they push up the park and in theory push back the right sided players to defend. Reading is a wing back and we played him as a full back last season with little or no protection in front of him most weeks. If we were going to play that way, we’d have been better playing McGinty or Musonda at left back as Reading isn’t a full back so we shouldn’t have played the way we did with him. having said that, Reading didn’t improve all season and if anything, got worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They literally posted a picture of an animals eyes widening. Robbo on here used to provide more info (as far as he could without compromising the club) and no one lost their shit over him giving morsels of info or hints out. At worst the mascot gets a slap on the wrist. At best they've been given the okay to tease. They did IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At worst the mascot gets a slap on the wrist. At best they've been given the okay to tease. I had a look at his posts, every time he posts a gif, it is in association with an incoming signing, so it is giving a huge benefit of the doubt to say he just happened to post a gif for the first time, purely by random on the same day we made a signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no Ayr v East Fife food fight. The Ayr players were spotless and busy playing cards (and sober). It was East Fife v East Fife (and they were pished). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
