cannot get into a team in the relegation zone of the division above.
Is that because he is charlie rap, recovering from injury or simply not fancied (in a footballing sense!!) by the present Reading manager?
I know nothing about the bloke so simply canvassing opinions....

by the time we decide to send Deon for his op, he'll probably have to go back !!.
Interesting point ... not sure about the rules governing 'emergency loans' but surely the player should be playing or how can it be an emergency?
We saw last season what happens when loanees come straight in and get started ahead of regular players even when they weren't fully fit. Doing that put too many noses out of joint and if Parky is giving McLeod a chance to prove himself before promoting Mooney to the starting line-up then it's a decision I agree with.
Anyway, we only have Mooney until December 1st, it'll be interesting to see if he is retained after then.

Not sure any of our forwards would. From the brief cameos though, he looks at least as good as what we have.
I remember Richard Money, who played for Liverpool and several other clubs a while back.
When he was manager at Walsall last year, he was affectionately known as "Dickie Dosh".
Think we need to get used to what we have got. If the midfield get back to playing as they did at the start of the season then i see no problem with us winning games.

I agree that goalscorers come at a premium rate, but only when you are in the priemiership/ championship. Colchester, Millwall, MK Dons, are hardly flush but still are able to find strikers from lower leagues/ players sitting in another clubs reserve or youth team, i would question the desire and hunger of McLeod as he has already proven that he can he do it at this level so why can he not do it now?? Beckford did not cost Leeds a fortune, so it does prove that the players are out there it is upto the management team to go out and find them and not just simply hope that the current crop can do it, we need to be able to mix it up a bit and make teams think about how we are we are going to play, rather than jitting Deon Burton to hold up, or knocking it long for McLeod to chase
Okay, on Saturday Izzy skied one and Burton put another into Row Z.
Their keeper had just one save to make. Just one.
That was about it. Thank God they had some Nutter playing on their side.
Yep, led the line well and demonstrated a bit of footballing nous. Hopefully he'll start from here on.
As most on here know I am probably Dicko's biggest fan but Mooney did as much as could be expected isolated as he was. Deserves another chance on Saturday but, as most agree, needs someone alongside him.
