Bench looks short of match winning quality, surely the end of Jerome and Huddlestone - both seem to have been left behind the pack after the Coventry friendly.

Needs a Vydra or a Marriott in there for Leeds next week.

Huddlestone has a knock, will be back in the squad next week or 2.

Was given a squad number too, so can't be that far out of the reckoning.

We've made his position arguably our strongest in terms of depth.

Disappointing, but not surprising we've not seen him involved since Mount came in.

Spoke to support and they said it was a service wide issue. Grrrrrrr!!!!!

Worked for me after your initial post.

Sensible by Frank. Throwing Marriott and Evans in when they’ve not played in one preseason game when Thomas, Bennett etc have earnt the right to be in the squad would have been very harsh.

still would have like to see Marriott though for the last 20 mins

Yes very surprised with the bench. Is Marriott injured? If so jerome would be a candidate. Oh well thought maybe Bennett or Thomas might get on the bench... Turns out they both are.

Yeah. But its a long season, can you imagine the sheet hitting the fan if Marriot had come on and got injured? See that thug McShane is at the back for them.

You don't normally get a gaggle of photographers around the away bench before a match... Something must be going on here! ?

[DarkFruitsRam7]

Finally arrived. Time for a quick pint and a pie. The pies are unreal at Reading.

I thought they were talking about Forest because they were going through the teams who are high up in the promotion odds.

[wixman1884]

smart, realistic words from benty. it's very easy to get carried away, but frank is going to need some time. 

[OohMartWright]

Interesting that Benty acknowledged our “passionate owner”
