6-0 win for the Royals today and that wasnt even the start of it al! it could have so easy have been in double figures! 4-0 up at half time, a turned down penalty shout, 2 goals declared off-side, i could go on!
in fact it was the peterbrough goalkeeper who kept them in the game, he was by far their best player. he had a blinder.
as for the Royals - FANTASTIC is one of the many words you could use for the game, goals from Pearce, McAnuff, Kebe, Long and 2 from Siggy got the reading fans in the full party mood. 9th in the leauge now and finally on a postive goal difference, now that is wot i call progress considering at the end of jaunary after the game at Sheffield United we were 23rd and had a goal difference of -17. who would have thought it???? congrats boys.
i can not believe in 3 games time (2 weeks) the season is going to be over :( its come around so quickly, thank god for the world cup this season :)
but as its the end of the season it comes to that time of year, where the player of the season has to be decided, if u discount the first half of the season ( i know alot of reading fans are) there is a number of players that could be given the award.
1. Bertrand has been outstanding this season, he had a few iffy moments at the beginning of the season, but has been the most consistant player throughout the season, always one of the first names on the team sheet.
2. Siggy - Well what more could be said about 'the stig'? ON FIRE!! cause chaos wherever he plays and has scored so many vital goals for the team....who else would be as cool as cucumber to take a 92nd min penalty against Liverpool at Anfield? one of many great goals this season!
3. Tabb - one of my favourite players this season. didnt get much of a chance under Rodgers and when he did play he was out of position at right back (although if you ask me, he did extremely well here considering hes a left footer!).Under McDermott, he had found a new lease of life. Always puts in a shift and plays with no more than a 110% effort. runs miles, creates for the team, shores up the defence.....AMAMZING all rounder and another name which is first on the team sheet.
4. Griffin - FANTASTIC! love him to pieces and so want to hold on to him in the summer. came in on-loan in january and has provided more experince in the team. great RB, but battles forward when the oppitunity comes to him (he showed that again today). reminds me of Graeme Murty bombing forward when he used to play for us :) has also helped Kebe with his game.
other players who deserve a mention - Millsy (solid under McDermott), Ivar (experienced center-back), Special K (another on-loan player that we want to keep, the fans love him), Kebe (more confident this season under McDermott and like siggy scored some vital goals), Long (shown why he was given the number '9' shirt and proved lots of people wrong this season :))
as you can see there are so many i could choose from and im still undecided, its so difficult this season.
So Reading won, Man U won (yipeeee) and Spurs beat Chelsea (sorry Mightypretty), so for me its been the perfect day! means that it keeps things interesting right to the end of the season :) :) just the way we like it!!!
