Shown up today for being too slow to catch the opposition on the first yellow. 2nd card was also a caution like it or not.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Greer - past it?

First yellow he was dropped in the shit by Upson.

Accomplished on the ball yes. Physically though the cracks have shown this season, exemplified by that first booking today of damage limitation by him.

Got a feeling that we'll sell him if a bid is made over the summer from another Championship club and he'll be replaced by a Spanish import.
First yellow had nothing to do with being too slow, it was a quality foul to stop a goal scoring opportunity because of a mistake by Upson. You cannot blame Greer in the slightest for that in fact I bet you the first person to talk to Greer after the game was Upson apologising for putting him on a tightrope second half.

Was it not from Greers' mis placed cross field pass?
For the record, I'm not a Greer fan, but thought he was unlucky today and didn't look like his legs had gone in any way.
The first one was a blatant yellow, but as already said it was Upson's mistake that forced Greer into it.
Good captain, footballer and defender ..... but if we acquired a similarly good ball playing CB with youth and pace on his side ...to accompany the classy stopper Upson, that to me would make a rock solid central defensive unit and would be an improvement.
But I think the second yellow was very harsh - the ref made a name for himself.

Agreed. He was a yard off the pace of the game today. And when he got the ball his distribution was poor.
Both yellows were soft but technically correct. In another game he might not have even got booked. But having got the first booking it was very naive to go in the way he did for the second.
Correct. He cannot blame Upson who was desperately trying to get across to cover after GG's own error in the first place.
And the second was probably a booking regardless of whether the Reading players influenced the ref or not.
But none of that means he is not good enough. Still first choice with Upson for me

He made a costly mistake for us today but Drenthe was the best player on the pitch by a long way and did more than just Greer
