Cam the Ram Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 2 minutes ago, Kernow said: Not sure why they are out, but they apparently are. This tweet is from the BBC reporter that covers Reading. Then there's also this tweet from a "getreading" reporter who does have more followers, but getreading did report that we're paying at least £4mil for Blackman which I really can't see... Neither included in the squad yesterday. If they weren't deemed fit enough to even make the bench it might be pushing it for them to be ready for Tuesday (hopefully).

Would rather Hector than McShane be out personally, he's a promising player. I know nothing about Jake Cooper who started for them yesterday but hopefully this means Ferdinand will play. He's a donkey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEL Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 That's mean Cooper and Ferdinand in CB positions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopRam Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Of what I saw yesterday I would certainly be putting abdoul in the team over Russell looks faster runs at defenders and beats the man pretty much eveything Russell doesn't, or Blackman over Russell, I like Russell don't get me wrong his passion and he never stops you need that in your squad, but I just don't think he's good enough to be in our starting 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then I discovered that the last train back to Loughborough is at 9.38!! At my speed of walking I'd have to miss half the second half. Just thought, is there anyone driving back to Loughborough after the game who would give me a lift, please? Thanks, but I'm now fixed up with a lift on Tuesday night. This forum is an amazing place!

The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 We do not need favours by way of teams having players out. Let them play their best team. Nothing to fear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramos Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Grant Christie Keogh Shackell Warnock Ince Johnson Butterfield Camara Martin Blackman Subs: Mitchell, Baird, Pearce, Hendrick, Weimann, Russell, Bent Would like to see 4 4 2 in attack and maybe a 4 2 3 1 in defence on Tuesday with Blackman coming back to help out when defending. We will probably stick with the 4 3 3, but with Thorne out and Blackman wanting to play down the middle, I think its a good opportunity to try two men up front. Going to put a bet on blackman to score if he starts as former players always seem to score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Sagan Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Last train to London is 21.29. Grrr... Clement said Keogh and Thorne had been carrying knocks but both would be OK. I'd be delighted if Thorne's back for this. Apparently Hendrick had a temperature on Friday but has hopefully recovered. A shame we couldn't rest Warnock at the weekend - when is Max Lowe going to be fit enough to challenge? (not so) Young Stephen will have to play another three games this week, and is always in the wars whatever he does. With a Tuesday and a Saturday game, I wonder if any of the cup starters have played themselves into contention for either. If so, it's more likely that it'll be for Saturday than Tuesday night, though surely Blackman plays against his former club. And what news of Carson? Grant Christie Keogh Shackell Warnock Thorne Butterfield Johnson Blackman Martin Ince Substitutes: Mitchell Hendrick Camara Bent Baird Pearce Russell All of a sudden the bench looks much stronger. This would leave out Shotton, Weimann and Bryson. Clement will choose Pearce because it's against his former club, but I expect him to rotate places with Shotton for the weekend. My doubt regarding this lineup is with Ince and Blackman, who would both play on the right normally. It's possible we'll start Ince on the right with Blackman on the bench ready to rotate in, and have one of Russell/Camara starting on the other side.

B4ev6is Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Or he might swap with blackman on the wing to keep reading guessing to also help martin out also. But I do think camara will be good if clemment wanted to do this. Camara Blackman martin sitting in just behind them and just in front of geouge thorn bladly johnson and butterfield.

Rampage Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 All I can say is that if the formation/lineup does not work then it will give us more options to pontificate on who and how we should have played. A ridiculous number of teams and tactics have now become possible with the players that we have at the club. We still need another fullback.
