The Tilehurst End’s own Tom Hill joins the chat this week to help Ross outnumber Ben with tactics nerds. The trio discuss early signs of some tactical shifts that were direly needed in midfield after Shrewsbury, with Savage and Wing’s roles seemingly adjusted.
There’s further discussion of Wareham and Ehibhatiomhan’s futures in this Reading attack, plus more discussion of the best food available in each hosts’ locale. Plus, the boys open up the contract book to see where Reading will stand on July 1st, 2025.

Two draws, but two very different performances give the pod’s two hosts two games to discuss in which Reading picked up two points.
Ben and Ross debate Wareham’s effectiveness up top after a run of starts, and the listeners are interested in the makeup of the midfield in the mailbag.
Plus Ben remembers that photo of Steve Evans’ dog, so that’s always fun.

A bumper episode of the podcast today, as Ben and Ross are joined by TTE Reading women’s reporter Peter Matthews. Peter gives an update on the recent progress made in the league by the women’s team. Plus, he sticks around to give his take on the return to Reading of the Bodin family.
Ross breaks down what fans can expect from new signing Billy Bodin, and the trio review a gutsy win over Bolton.

Ben’s so bothered by the defeat at Brisbane Road that he can’t find the words, so he takes to making a few up. Ross chews over changes to common passages of play in Reading’s midfield and the pair both lament over Mbengue’s absence.
The listeners help the boys discuss what potential changes Noel Hunt could make ahead of a visit to a Burton team that looked dead and buried just 2 weeks ago.
