    Ebiowei- another decent game always a threat , just needs to improve on delivery.
    Slater - battling performance and well taken goal
    Mcloughlin- a cool and calm performance at the back . Played some decent forward passes.
    Referee rubbish again.
    The local commentary was racist- kept calling Tufan ' the Turk ' .
    They are a poor side and were there for the taking .
    Come on City

    Slater. For the excellent goal
    Traore. For the excellent pass for the goal
    Ebiowe. For trying to be positive

    Reading were terrible and should not have been allowed to get back into the game
    The referee was so poor throughout
    As many have said, we are so slow with our build up allowing the opposition to get back defending too easily
    No sign of urgency or confidence across the team to bury teams like Reading
    Liked Liams appointment & attitude but now starting to feel he can’t Coach a side to do the things he wants. Not a promotion manager?

    ****s sake. He's 4 months into his first permanent job. He's improved us so far. Who knows if he's a promotion manager or not?

    Is a Billic or Corberan or Mowbray or 'insert name here' a promotion manager 4 months into any appointment?

    Probably not.

    Slater
    Coyle/Seri
    Ebiowe.
    Awful referee. In the Prem Ebiowe's cross/shot which struck the outstretched arm would have been a penalty all day long.
    Two mediocre mid table teams so the draw was not a surprise. The city commentator had Reading lining up in a '5-3-3 formation' so with that in mind City did well to get a point.

    Slater - his goal should have been the match winner
    Seri
    Coyle

    Ebiowei did well in first half but faded badly trying the same tricks against two defenders. Greaves had a good game too. We were far superior and toyed with them at times. Should have won it. Grrr.

    I'll give you that but he's 1 in how many?

    Anyway, given Boro's propensity to bottle the playoffs, he still has work to do yet.

    They’re also full of experienced championship heads. Howson, Lenihan, Smith. Could do worse than trying to pick off a few of their squad should they go up as a lot of them won’t be deemed good enough for the top flight.

    Howson would improve our midfield 10 fold. Lenihan walks into our back line too.

    Majority of the teams in this division don’t have top class players they have steady heads who do their job every week. Aside from our back line (most of the time) and Seri we have a team of inconsistent, impotent, overrated and overpaid players

    Howson is 34.... since at Middlesbrough he's played 216 games scoring 6 goals .... Lenihan is 29 he's only played 21 times for Boro... His career at 29 is 225 games and 7 goals... he's no step up on McLoughlin who is only 26 (better with age) and has scored 6 goals in 131 games.... he is Irish though.
