daleblue Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 In the end I just started laughing at our own players, utter garbage, watched Borner run forward with the ball only to lose control, kick it too far in front, lunge, ends up on his arris, Reading player smoothly collects the ball moves it sideways and watches Borner having to get up and run back, he was not the only one Reach in the penalty area, got square onto the ball and chest it and clear, oh no, stay sideways on, do a kung fu kick, handle the ball and look all innocent, my missus asked me what I was laughing at, "tragedy", I say, they were not the only ones, lots of guts out there tonight, but lets be honest, that was comedy. 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The two moments of comedy tonight came from Paterson for me One was the long throw straight to their keeper But the best one was his pass to the corner flag 2 Owlstalk Shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Lord Snooty Posted December 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted December 2, 2020 I didn't laugh. I stood up from my comfy chair an applauded the tiny figures on my computer screen off the pitch. Hearts of Lions tonight.

He’s limited as a footballer but he gives everything and it’s entertaining to watch, I like him 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the bizarre things about the game isn't it. Probably one of my favourite Wednesday sides ever. Best Wednesday sides ever.With two of my favourite defenders in it. And they often conceded some absolute comedy howlers. This being one that long lives in the memory. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
