I've written here before about the perils and pitfalls of:
1) Having to follow the game via narrative on BBC and
2) Writing about a subject I know nothing about
Well, I've been caught. A reader, Alex, was kind enough to comment on and correct my analysis of the Reading game (note to fellow Yanks - pronounced like 'Dock of the Bay' singer Otis, not the Monopoly railroad). I appreciate it so much (and the tolerance it took not to reveal me as the stupid git I am) that I'm bringing it front & center and vow to avoid the unwarranted analysis in the future (specifically, on Friday December 29th - all other dates are fair game for flawed thinking.)
Alex:
"Aidy didn't actually play for the draw. He brought on Powell for Tommy Smith, but then pushed Jordan Stewart into left midfield, Hameur Bouazza up front with Ashley out on the right. In fact it was more of an attacking substitution than a defensive one. "
Right on and thanks - I'm learning.
