We kicked off which meant Reading won the toss. Winning the coin toss gives the choice of which end - the team losing the toss kick off

But why would Reading - or any team - choose to attack their fans in that half? It just pisses everybody off

I literally had a premonition last night that this would happen. There was something so typically READING about it. Someone else tried this this season - possibly Wolves. Always an attempt to disrupt us. Didn't work.

Their choice of which way to kick rebounded on them.
We have generally not been good starters over the past few months, so this was probably the kick up the ar*e we needed to get us started on the front foot.

We did it to Barnsley last week

That was because of the low sun though. Back fired a little as the sun was actually lower and in a more annoying place second half.

I spent the first couple of minutes kicking myself for not starting the noddy thread:-

'I bet they switch ends'.

Like you I had a full on Nostra-freakin-damus, that it was so Reading.

In fairness though the switch did give them a decent tailwind for the second half, right up until the moment the wind dropped at around half time :lolol: :facepalm:

I spent the first 5 minutes of the second half shitting myself when the ball was near the south stand thinking Reading had 4 players through on goal onside
