Wednesday - V - Reading OMDT


Recommended Posts

Ok , not a bad half all in all.

 

Defence and goalie played well: 

Luongo and reach playing well

Harris and Bannan ok 

Paterson great goal.

 

Red card a sickener.

 

but we have played ok . 
 

Definitely one of our better halves of football this season .

Paterson got too caught up in trying to have a wrestling match and forgot to defend properly. 

 

Not really sure why our centre forward is marking Joao - both CHs looked like they were zonal marking.

Shaw’s sending off:

20 years good tackle

10 years ago yellow

today red- excessive force endangering the other player. Serious foul play. 
Like it or not they are the rules. 

Makes you wonder where we will be in 10 or even 20 yrs time...  

 

Cant head the ball..   

2m distance must be maintained from all players at all times...

 

Maybe football will become like netball or subbuteo

Red cards are serious matters.

 

The game is entertainment and nothing else. A red card ALWAYS spoils the entertainment value.

 

Reading drop screaming at the slightest touch...to me it's cheating and I can't watch these games anymore. Not the OWLS...any game.

 

Football needs rescuing from the idiots.

 

I thought it was borderline strong challenge but maybe a yellow...he's used to those tackles all day long in the U23s

 

I'm bored with this poo now...

It was a 50/50 red even the commentators are saying that 

but let’s not do the typical Owlstalk witch hunt and crucify the lad. 
he’s a young lad learning he’s made a mistake if he’s still making the same mistake with 50 appearances behind him then you can lay into him 

5 reds in 9 games. His today was a straight red. No excuse.

I must have done something very bad in a previous life.

 

Would have got Dom on earlier to break stuff up maybe sacrificing Reach or Harris.


buckle up for the second half

 

I think the guy who would have come off in that situation, got himself sent off.

Pulis pulled Shaw off the pitch the other day saying he was a naive youngster who could get himself sent off through a naive tackle


Then starts him next game 

And Shaw gets himself sent off for a naive reckless tackle

 

lol

 

Don't diss TP it's not allowed, you have to blame Monk.

Games changed. 

 

10 years back I applaud that. 

 

Now ball weighs two ounce.

 

Heading will be banned and eventually so will tackling.

 

That's just how it is.

 

We have to accept it. 

 

Doesn't mean we can't whinge about it though.

Just a bloke. Being dragged along in a world that moves too quick for it's own good.
