It's not about managers it's about players. I don't go along with us bein " unlucky" all last season and this for that matter. Sometimes yea but save the excuses. It's reading were at home and we want 3 points that's something everyone should agree on. If you don't agree that we should be favourites then you should pack up now.
We've won of the last 4 games against reading. I don't see how that makes us clear favourites myself. Whilst your optimism is encouraging, I doubt very much that you're prepared to stake too much money on a Liverpool win at your local bookies.
