It was a decent first half and gave the impression it was gonna be a simple execution of a game plan by some very talented youngsters. The second half was a much frustrating forty five minutes. The MotM was probably their keeper. We should have won comfortably but ended up just hanging on to the one goal lead. Better teams than Reading are going to be a handful. We put ourselves under the cosh in the second half in instances where there was absolutely no pressure, but losing the ball to a fleet-footed attack looked like the Curse of the Two Goal Lead was gonna kick in.Was a decent first half.
The substitutions in the second half seemed to upset the rhythm and they had more of go with nothing to lose.
Their keeper was very vocal and had a good game.

Need to improve in next round, hopefully if we gey Gray and Wright back at the base of midfield we will look a better unit.
Mfuni great for his age, Ndala clearly very talented, thought we might hear more about him joining 1st team training, maybe he's not sticking around. Shame if so looks like the raw material is there.

I expect we will be stronger going forward when you consider at least some of the missing names coming back such as Obavwadoua, Gray, Wright, Samuel, Okeke, Carrington. No disrespect to the lads that played it was a very young re-shuffled team and they got the job done.
Biggest complaint - very poor fan turnout again, we must do better

Yep been out so long forgot to add him into that list. Some depth missing. Get them back and we would take some stoppingWhat the hell has happened to Dada-Mascoll? A real shame he’s missed most of the season so far.
