Only 10 points behind Boro in sixth. What if.....
On the other hand, we're even on points with Ipswich. Had we imposed our superiority today, we could have been above them. Still, a win's a win!
Back up to 13th on 52 ,10 points away from 6th place and -3 GD.
2 players Farke brought in finally got off the mark with goals
Other than that fluke long range goal from Nelson I don't think any of our strikers have scored in months .
We either play 3 centre backs and go for 0-0 or 1-0 or 2 centre backs and let in soft goals like the 4-3 loss last week or 3-2 win today.
Still not convinced we are progressing and this team without on loan Gunn and star man Maddisson both called up for England U21 this week would be struggling .

Srbeny was so, so poor. How the hell he missed that last one. Really shoddy. No subs until about the 90th minute again.
At least we got a win, but that second half was so dire.

I shall be doing a MDT for Friday 30th March Fulham at home , I will mostly be working on it evenings and weekends because of work commitments but I shall be pulling out all the stops to maintain the high standard that you have come to expect from me.
Any stattos out there my enjoy seeing this.
I'm happy to just take the 3 points and not over-analyse stuff.

No match next week for NCFC, but Romania U21 v England U21 live on BT Sport2 next Saturday so we’ll get the chance to see Angus and Madderz in an England shirt hopefully 
MB left off corners, which were 8/2 in our favour. We did hit the post once, but otherwise the stats were fairly even, though that also reflects our playing more conservatively in the second half to see the game out.
But WHY didn't Josh pass to him when he was stood n the penalty spot and Josh went for goal from a very acute angle???
VERY impressed with Hernandez!!
Yea, bang on.
Both worked hard, their pace gave them an easy upper hand on the Reading full backs. But they always chose the wrong decision, or they played the wrong ball. We should have won that by more. BUT at the other end, a tip! Reading missed 2 really easy chances at 3-2! And they did sod all, all game. I wish we could have 3 Grant Hanleys at the back.
I went with my gf family who are Arsenal fans. Both really, really pissed off with the sub situation, and they aren't even invested in it! Even they said it is insane. I just said, this is what we have every game. He forgets he can do things during the game. He just lets it play out.Why, oh why make 2 substitutions in time added on.
Pisses me right off - and happens every single week
Still the Spurs wonderkid gets paid to sit in the stands.
Maybe he knows Srbeny would miss an open goal from a yard and didn't trust him. With good reason. He looked so poor.But WHY didn't Josh pass to him when he was stood n the penalty spot and Josh went for goal from a very acute angle???
VERY impressed with Hernandez!!
But as I touched on in other replies. It is also down to the decision making and final ball quality of Josh and Hernandez. Both Wingers should have scored and assisted. They got themselves into such great positions. 90% of those 2 as wingers work, but they just don't have the final product.
Massively p*ssed off he didn't come on. But, as we know, even if he did come off the bench, he would have got 1 minute. We should just scrap the bench. Klose was injured in 20 seconds, struggled on and off all game, and went down injured in the second half. At no point did that wake Daniel up. He was still napping.
It was worrying that Reading were so, so poor. And they only started to play about 70th minute. By that time it was only 3-2. The 2 Reading goals were awful defending, and from nowhere. They missed easier chances than the goals at 3-2. And when you look at it. We needed another Maddison Penalty to win us that game. When you look back at how much better we were than them, that's really frustrating again.
Also, as has been mentioned before, I've never known Carrow Road so dead. I didn't sing once after the intro "on the ball city" because I would have been the only one and look like a t*t. All game Reading fans were singing "you must be sh*t, we scored a goal" and I just wanted to say, "yes, but you are sh*tter, coz we have scored 3 against you! And we are awful! Our fans are not happy with the quality of play either! We are both a disgrace! It's not all about you!"
