    Yes Serg. There's usually a nominated 'late' turnstile that stays open until half time while the rest shut.

    Sacking today's game off, out till 2 at the works Christmas do then the wife decided today was the best day to do the Christmas markets in Leeds so I'm already back on it like a fool.

    Score draw today, Reading will be a tough one, expecting a Paudie side switch it he win the toss and lots of "annoy the crowd" type of play from them.

    In Edinburgh so also missing the game.

    Will cheer loudly if they turn us round as per GA's instructions. Should startle a few pigeons.

    All were quite likely to miss out today. Kavanagh and Pattison are out of favour and needing 1 or 2 injures to get back in the squad. Byrne is likely to struggle for a place whilst Baldwin and Wright are fit. Lapslie was the obvious one to miss out with Pointon coming back into the 18. Only other possible change the 18 could be Cook in for Swan.

    Halliday starts
    Wright keeps his shirt
    Humphrys leads line

    Neufville and Pointon on bench. No Cook.

    I think Neufville needs a bit of a rest, hopefully Halliday performs well!

    Don't like that team at all. Distinct lack of creativity all over. Hope I'm wrong.

    I respect players keeping their shirt/first 18 spots, especially after a victory last game out. However unless injuries dictate, it’s a little odd to have 4x players in a squad who are or can play LCB…..

    Neufville being dropped seemed very unlikely a few weeks ago but he’s not looked at it for a while now.

    I'd rather have five of that bench on the pitch starting

    Maybe GA is playing for another 1-0?
