Reading 1 Stockport County 3 Read how County toppled high flying Reading from 6th spot in L1, thrill to the brilliance of their football & total game management. Also here- 2 videos from the away end, and some crowd shots plus ….other stuff……enjoy….
Everything spot on Hedgie , a very encouraging display , not a weak link in the whole team , and we don t have Horsfall or LB , maybe shows we have good strength in the squad . All the boys put a good shift in , thought Knoyle got stuck in , Touray very steady , MSH creating bits of havoc here and there , also thought Diamond did pretty well when he came on . But am not a great fan of these out of town stadiums .Readings ground reminded me a bit of Colchester’s , bit of a soulless place . Imagine if Edgeley Park was relocated to say , five miles the other side of Poynton , the heart and soul of our club would be ripped out . Edgeley is bang in the community even though it is a complete pain in the neck to expand it with space at a premium ! I think Bolton Wanderers lost a bit of their heart and community feel playing in Horwich , miles away from the town but a decent stadium to be fair . Was speaking to a Reading fan before the game there is a lot of unrest there , lot of demonstrations , think it’s something to do with ownership issues . Thankfully we have Sir Mark Stott running our show ! But despite the perishing cold at Reading , County played great and as Hedgie points out we could stay up there near the play odds and maybe sneak into them
