lost times of how many times I've listened to this the commentary's spot on, the timing of the Captain Pugwash theme kicking in is inch-perfect... beautiful all round

Fleetwood Town beating Arsenal on penalties and the Captain Pugwash theme playing instantly is quite a piece of radio. Recorded from BBC Radio 5 Live tonight.

4/5 for me big improvements so far in a number of ways, which he deserves a lot of credit for next, i'd like to see: - more consistent all-round performances (we've dropped off a bit recently) - players like Pereira, Wing and Kyerewaa improving #ReadingFC

READ: How the fans reacted to a classic game of two halves at the SCL on Saturday. There was plenty of praise for match-winner Kyreece Lisbie and #ReadingFC's comeback, but criticism for other aspects of the performance. ✍️ @harry_chafer thetilehurstend.sbnation.com…

excluding the festive period, this week (Wigan, Orient, Barnsley) is our last 'three league games in a week' run until January when we face... Wigan, Orient and Barnsley nice symmetry

RATINGS: A big impact from Kyreece Lisbie was crucial in today's comeback win over Barnsley. Was he your MOTM? It was a mixed #ReadingFC showing overall, however. thetilehurstend.sbnation.com…
