Reading Rebel Posted November 29, 2021 Share Posted November 29, 2021 Well done and good luck to Beaconsfield in their pursuit of the B&B cup. I listened to the game on Rebels Radio and apart from taking the lead it sounded like it was a poor night result wise for us with Beaconsfield thoroughly deserving their 5-1 win.

Expand I'm sure no-one gave mid table Hornchurch a chance last season As you often say it's about performance on the day.Its also about belief and determination and intelligent game planning so we must take it one game at a time and deliver our best Last eight or last four would be an achievement imo.

Expand Sorry Adrian, perhaps I got the wrong end of the stick. The way you said 'in our pursuit of the FA Trophy' it sounded like you thought we had a good chance of winning it. As has been said before Hornchurch were a bit of an exceptional case where they had an experienced manager who I think had previously won the Trophy on three occasions and of course had the financial backing to achieve it.

rebelbrewer Posted November 30, 2021 Share Posted November 30, 2021 As Jon said in the interview we couldn't ask the players who have played lots of football for us to play again just 2 days after a tough FA Trophy tie, so we were in a no win situation really. Beaconsfield deserved their win overall although our high points (the first half hour) were the best football in the game and 5-1 flattered them. In and amongst the defeat there were some really good signs from the youngsters - for example, Harry Riley looked good at centre back and we need cover there, Eitel seems to be regaining confidence, in the first few minutes Joe was terrorising there defence and Imran took his goal really well. Shame to lose but some good points too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 It feels a bit like poor planning though - with a bit of thought, the kickoff time could be pushed back a bit, or the date changed to allow large numbers of Reading supporters to attend both games. There’s already plenty of them saying exactly this on social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I think it's more to do with some Reading supporters wanting to see both games. Not really been thought out by the B&B. If they wanted to have the maximum crowd they should have the game played later or on the Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
