Reading FC 2020/21

[Ioweddie]

Are Reading really that good...what a transformation from the last few seasons...they are going to take some catching...probably another 3 points tonight against Coventry....Come on Beesrestore some normality...starting tomorrow against Luton

A Reading fan I know said they’re not that good, just proves how poor the rest of the championship is.

Expected goals table: Championship, 27-28 Oct 2020

These alternative league tables are calculated using expected goals (as seen in my match timelines). There’s a full explanation in the first post here.

I know some people mock xG but last season the xG table for the most part was pretty close to the actual table. Anyways reading appear to be in quite a false position at the moment, just like us!

Bristol city spent much of last season well above where xG had them but they averaged out in the end to where they were supposed to be, i expect reading will be similar

 

[RT]

4 shots on target Vs Blackburn and scored 4. They've been very clinical

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

1-0 down.

 

[TW3Bee]

Poor so far tonight, and 1 down at St Andrews against Coventry.

 

[beetee]

From what I've seen tonight theyll do well to avoid relegation

 

[HaylingBee74]

I thought the first half was a good watch. Reading are very direct often kicking long from the keeper. They have some players who like they can be good on the ball when it works.
Fortunately for us Cov’s best player Hamer who scored tonight, was suspended against us after being sent off vs Bournemouth

 

[TW3Bee]

First shot on target?

 

[TW3Bee]

Cov back in front.

 

[Delbee]

3 1 Coventry that was one hell of a stick for the ,3 goal ,as goalkeeper messed upp

 

[Ioweddie]

Good old Coventry...back to earth for Reading...conditions poor..good game for the neutral...

Two not very good sides.

 

[HaylingBee74]

Lucas Joao is decent though, certainly got to keep him well marked

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

Average side who will find their level.

 

[GU24 Bee]

I didn’t realise until they just put the table up how many points behind them we are.

 

[Ruislip_Rich]

Game on. The division is there for the taking.

 

[cheshirebee]

Remind me of Tranmere in 2012-13.
The hare to hopefully our Tortoise.

2014.

 

[Alex]

2014.

No, 2013 started with 9 wins and were a long way clear

2013/14 season, but I see what you mean.

 

[RodBee]

2013/14 season, but I see what you mean.

Don't argue boys!!

 

[Indian Bee]

I can't believe the MODs allowed a Reading thread to be opened after a few games ......

 

[ruislip bee]

Thanks for opening this. Could not work out how to open the scores update thread or start a new one. 0-3 down to preston at home. Good job Preston cant win at Deepdale. Reading finding their true level.

 

[gbems92]

The cream rises and the sh*t sinks eventually

 

[Herbert]

Didn’t take long for the wheels to fall off. Nice to see

 

[jlove]

Regression to the mean, as Matthew would say...

 

[GP200]

....................getting dunked...............

 

[Isleworth_Bee]

They will find their level.

 

[HaylingBee74]

Is anybody watching the Reading game and thinking the distance between fans is far too close? All 2000 are in the East Stand, the commentator says. The front rows are blocked off with signs over the seats. The fans are in alternate seats, and in the row behind. So they sit behind the spare seat. Social distancing, they have about 6 people within 6 feet

Agree completely. Weird.

 

[LboroBee]

I hope that they find their level- I’m not sure on the naivety of their approach yet

Thinking that myself.
I would like to know what their thinking on this is

 

[West Wilts Bee]

They ain’t sh*t i know that much.

 

[Ealing Bee]

I would like to know what their thinking on this is

Cutting down on Sanitising/Stewarding/Catering staff by not opening extra areas? (Unsure)

If so, that's the very definition of "cheap".
