Palace 0 Reading 0 and Run of Results



Crystal Palace 0 Reading FC 0


March 21, 2009

Steve Coppell's men had to settle for a draw away at Selhurst Park this afternoon.

Reading looked the more composed side during the first half but it was Palace who had three shots on target while their own keeper was untroubled.

The Royals started the second half brightly but failed to make the most of their chances.

Liam Rosenior was send off 27 minutes into the half for a second bookable offence leaving Reading with their backs against the wall for the last 15 minutes.

Palace threw everything into a frantic last five minutes but Reading held on and will have been glad in the end to pick up the point.

Wolves extended their lead at the top of the Championship beating Nottingham Forest 1 - 0 while Birmingham City could only manage a draw at home to Norwich.

Liam Rosenior sent off and now will be suspended for a game




7 Mar Plymouth A 2-2

10 Mar Charlton H 2-2

14 Mar Ipswich H 0-1

17 Mar Doncaster A 1-0

21 Mar Crystal Palace A 0-0


Away form good, home form causing us to blow it!


Luckily Birmingham also making a mess of things


Good to see Andy D'Urso is keeping up his standard of refereeing!


List of shocking decisions

  • Chris Armstrong should have gone
  • Clear pen for foul on David Kitson
  • Stephen Hunt kicked all over the place and then gets booked
  • Moses should have been booked for a blatant dive....
  • Liam Rosenior's first yellow


All in a days work for Mr D!
