Wasn’t at the game today so can’t comment too much on his performance but what a ball by Appere to Hoskins.
I would hand Appere a contract, he’s still young and is a runner. Divided opinions amongst fans but in my opinion he’s well worth a deal & one I think we would regret if we let go.

Least confident I’ve been for a game all season, 5 at the back kills us & never works.
Burge
Willis Monthe Guthrie brough
Gape
Pinnock Bowie Leonard Appere Simpson
Think Willis has played RB back, may be wrong.
Do I think that team will win, probably not but have to try something.

Portsmouth have just released more seats for us by the looks of it. Driving down to see this one with a Pompey friend, hopefully not a depressing drive home

Not knowing the extent of Willis & McWilliams injuries, if we lose another player to injury virtually in any other position we simply wouldn’t have another cover to get through to the end of the season Unless we have another David Norman up are sleeve Really hope we get a couple of players in, fingers crossed.

Mellon who was at Morecambe & Taylor who was At Colchester have both been recalled to play at a higher level I presume. I imagine most league 1 clubs would be interested as both been scoring goals in League 2. Wouldn’t say no to either coming here.

Oxford fans on Twitter saying they might be in for Marriott from Fleetwood, a valuation of around 500k which seems way too much for me.
One Ox fan mentioned that on Peterboroughs chairman’s podcast he mentioned that ‘Marriott is moving to a league 1 club closer to home’
No idea if any of this is true but going from previous posts I would say we are interested in him but wouldn’t pay anywhere near that kind of money..

Great victory!!
Bowie is coming into his own up front, what a star.
I said I would take a big offer for Pinnock but he’s been an irreplaceable player in the last 3-4 games!
We’re in dreamland if we get 4 points from the next 2 games, excited for January market to open!
Merry Christmas all.

- Expect Dyche and Lintott to go on loan.
-Cancel Simpson loan.
-Don’t think we will have many takers on Haynes on a permanent so with his contract running out in the summer a team might take a chance on him with a loan until then.
-I would personally look at getting another prem youth keeper instead of Thompson.
-If we get a substantial offer for Pinnock I would take it. But if Leonard gets recalled we will have a huge task to get everyone replaced..
Can’t remember what position Leshabela played?

Second half was really solid. Sowerby was excellent! I thought Wycombe were a poor side but Burton were the worst team at Sixfields this season in my opinion. The game didn’t really get out of second gear but a win is a win. A couple of decent loan signings in Jan & we can have a easy mid table finish…I hope

This game now feels significant, need the win for some confidence & £££.
I have no idea if we will rotate or stick.
My guess would be
Thompson
Lintott Willis Sherring kioki
McWilliams leonard
Hoskins Hondermark Pinnock
Simpson/Dobson (at this rate Dobson would be an improvement)
This is probably far off but i haven’t a clue who will be picked, Can we afford to put Hoskins up front and put another defender in midfield?!?
Will we hit 3000 attendance ?

Going with my step dad who’s been a Reading fan for over 40 years, he reckons they’re destined for the drop. Early goal for us and the away end might get nasty as players were confronted after their defeat vs Blackpool. I do think we might give these a bit of a tonking but who knows? 3-0 Guthrie, Appere, McWilliams.

I am all for rotation under normal circumstances in this competition. However with no game for another 11 days afterwards I would still want to see a strong line up. Yes there is not a lot of cash for winning the game, but there is some. I understand the need to get some players minutes, but with such a long break afterwards I hope we see our key bodies still play. If we were playing on Saturday I would happily say full rotation, but if the budget is as constrictive as is suggested I would try to raise funds through any and every cup competition I could.
+1 Think it’s important Tyreece gets 45 mins and hopefully get a goal for confidence.
