Manchuku at the end looks like it's straight out of clipart

Well, it was fun whilst it lasted!

I hope it was just a precaution taking off Ings, but considering his recent record with injuries I'm not so sure

Quarcoo is a new one to me... Good to see Cross getting a chance too

I think this is a very good appointment for them. Arguably a much better fit for them than he was for us. It's a tough league but they've got a settled squad full of the characters he likes, they could do very well this season.

Bring bowties back to football kits I say

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 27/09/2026

Kinda frustrating as both of their goals are us just not being very good, but both of our goals were us being very good!

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Fair play to Josh Scowen for our equaliser, & Fred for the assist. It's big that we got back into that game. Still tinged with disappointment as you are right we were so much better second half. Tactical changes were spot on, Parker made a big difference.

120

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Sooo bloody frustrating. Stupid pass, stupid play, stupid mistakes, Shot ourselves in the foot AGAIN

220

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Really disappointing, so slow to get started again but punished this half. The problems under Duff haven't gone away, but I don't really know what it is we're missing - or how we sort it. We don't have the ability to dominate, or the presence to scrape results

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Improved towards the end of the half without creating much. Henderson having a bit of a stinker. Not sure how it's likely to go, depends if we improve tactically in the second-half

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Largely down to how Reading are playing, but Henderson just can't make a difference. On the plus side, very impressed with Wildsmith!

010

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Reading are (mostly) standing off us, so we have a congested space to pass through... & don't have the ability to do it (Woodrow is key, but he can't keep hold of it). Reading very comfortable in their job, space out wide & happy to loop it over our defence

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Bit of a chess game so far. Reading have a lot more conviction in what they are doing. We can't effectively get it up the pitch so far. Not awful, but not sure where we're going to great any chances from

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 26/09/2026

Just feel sorry for Van Sas at this point! Good team, interesting that Grimmer is the replacement CB option, not Anders. No Junior or Mothersille either. Think we'll struggle today though

130

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 25/09/2026

There has been an undertone of this for a while now. It won't be sustainable forever and we can't rely on potential promotion or expensive player sales - I can't see either of those happening any time soon.

100

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 25/09/2026

I'm already gearing up for the next one! 🧤

100

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 25/09/2026

Keep waiting for things to settle down and have a prolonged period of stability, but I'm just not sure that's our club any more! We're always only a few weeks away from a possible goalkeeper being signed.

100

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 25/09/2026

Speaks well, as you would expect. Not sure what to make of it to be honest, there's no denying his quality and in-theory he should be way above this level - but I also don't know if he'll be as prolific as he once was.

100

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 25/09/2026

What is going on?! More experience coming in I guess...

020

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 24/09/2026

It was Vircavs for me as well but I'm not sure why beyond recognising the name, it was Mark West after that for me as well, who was a lot further down the list!! I started going in 92 I think so it's mainly those well into the O'Neill era when I really know the names

231

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 24/09/2026

What is that a "thing" in modern football?! A mate of mine made a point about the psychology-aspect when 2 miss out on starting instead of 1 - it's less likely to create animosity between the keepers. It still doesn't makes sense though as Moore clearly isn't ever going to play for us.

120

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 24/09/2026

They REALLY don't rate Van Sas do they?! I've no idea what this obsession is about having so many keepers, what does Stuart Moore actually do?

100

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 24/09/2026

I thought they same, I like the idea of some legacy kits being released every now and then.

210

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 22/09/2026

So American. That trophy has already gone to the dogs, I can't imagine this makes it any better!

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 19/09/2026

Was like painting-by-numbers that interview 😂

000

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 19/09/2026

I know highlights don't tell the full story, but other than two long-range efforts they didn't really create anything (not did we mind). Much more like it defensively even if it stunted us a bit attacking-wise. I'm fine with that away from home

000

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 19/09/2026

To be fair to Duff he predicted the league would be really close this season. Lots of good teams potentially taking points off each other could make for a lower points tally getting promotion. We'll see how it pans out, Reading will be another tough game!

030

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 19/09/2026

I felt like we were heading towards some better results with Duff, but it still feels a big change since he left. I don't think we'd hold out for the win today with him in charge

120

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 19/09/2026

Just think, if we manage to keep a clean sheet we might actually win this...!

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 19/09/2026

I did wonder that, Henderson behind Wareham? Maybe Scowen adding some bite might help us keep the goals-conceded down!

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 19/09/2026

Back 3 again I assume, not sure what's happening with the midfield though!

100

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 18/09/2026

Unstoppable was the right word. Got to have the record for goals after taking it round the 'keeper as well

110

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 18/09/2026

He's 12 now (!) & just has no interest 😞. I've been very conscious not to force my interests on them but I always hoped it might still happen one day!

020

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 18/09/2026

My son's first game! I've tried a few times but he's never got the @wwfc.com (or football) bug, maybe one day 🙏🏻 What a player McCleary was (is) though!

140

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 17/09/2026

Agreed, what be did to help out when Blooms left was massive. He essentially gave up on playing for a while to help out Sam Grace & fill in for roles that had left

020

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 17/09/2026

Fixed-term consultancy role suggests it's not a permanent thing, but a shrewd move nonetheless!

120

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 17/09/2026

Wow, didn't see this coming at all! I'm no expert in coaching but it feels a great decision to me

140

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 16/09/2026

Lets hope we can encourage some more people over!

010

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 16/09/2026

I'm sensing some propaganda from Mr. Cecil with his questions in recent interviews. There seems a real undertone of pushing positivity and encouragement (which is no bad thing). Perhaps a suggestion this was an issue for Duffman?

000

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 15/09/2026

I know I'm just patting myself on the back here, but I'm really enjoying how well @wwfc-news.bsky.social is working!

160

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 15/09/2026

I was expecting him too. I assume it's an injury rather than not being included.

010

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 15/09/2026

Good to see Keita starting, I assume at left-back in a back 4. Great to see Junior back as well! Also a legendary @wwfc.com surname on that bench!

140

Richard Chapman @chapmanio.dev · 15/09/2026

Does Van Sas get a few games to prove himself??
