Headbutt apparently.

And off with a red.

That is bad news with Zokora off to ANC after this game

red cards in a few games actually. Swansea and Havant & Waterlooville both had players sent off in their game at the same time.

Gives O'Hara more of a chance.

Oh joy.

Not a big fan? Can't someone else move inside to that central position and Taarabt can start a game on the wing? Shift some players around and get the most out of the squad they have atm...

Freekick in dangerous position for Reading

We don't do a lot from set pieces mate.

Duberry badly injured - bad news with the upcoming African Cup of Nations. Could do without that.

2-2 FT

Sounds like we were very poor.

Only just held on there, what a joke.

Can't believe this...from what I've heard we had a stackload of chances to make it 3-1 and now we're hanging on for a 2-2 draw.

Finishes 2-2. Well, at least we're still in it, but we need to sort ourselves out.

Good effort from Reading, too bad couldn't find that 3rd goal I predicted

All over 2-2. In some ways I wish this one had been all tied up today one way or the other but a tremendous showing from the squad players against a much stronger Spurs side on paper. De La Cruz, Federici, Rosenior and Bikey sound like they impressed and in some ways i am pleased.

Belittling the Cup by putting out a second side are we?

I don't think so!

I think the reaction to Dave Kitson's comments is on a par with the muslims reacting to those Muhammed cartoons - way way over the top!

He didn't criticise the Cup - in fact straight after he said he didn't give two s**ts about it, he said it was a fantastic competition, so what's the big deal?

Full credit to Reading - I have a lot of respect for the way they play. Their squad is bigger than people give credit for - remember last season when they rested loads of players and still drew at Old Trafford? Then they had them on the ropes in the replay. Excellent footballing side. They're scared of no one.

except fernando torres

Fully agree with everything there mate a superb and refreshing post to read.

So how are we going to fair against Arsenal reserves when we cant even beat Reading reserves

This result may of come on the back of the "hairdryer " chat Ramos gave after the first Spurs reading game !

Its ok to try and not conceed goals when you have a first class defence but when its as bad as ours the only way to win is score more goals than you let in! . If Ramos wants to play any other way first sort out our defence ! .

Jenas got his 5th yellow of the season too so he has a one game ban, Hudd 3 games, and Zokora off to ANC.....
