For your reference listeners and Ben, I have a lot to say about the Barnsley game and not a whole lot to say about the Leyton Orient game.

I watched both games, enjoyed both games, but I have a lot more to say about Barnsley.

All right, well, I'll tell you what, should we just do Leyton Oren really quickly then?

yeah i mean like i think the thing for me with this game and and obviously then like it bleeds on into the narrative for the next game um is that paddy lane is has just completely reinvented his career season i don't even know it's odd wasn't it because he spent pre-season playing in those fullback positions and i even had a dig at liam in like episodes I don't know the second or third episode of this season when he had been playing like Paddy on the on the wing position and I was still like very pro Dan Chihua and I think that if anything like Paddy Lane coming out coming back from the dead quite frankly shows that no one should think that Dan Chihua's Reading career is over just because he's not playing right now I think we don't think Charlie Savage's current Reading career is over just because he's not playing right now So, you know, Chihua may well come back.

But I think for me, Lane was the quality difference in this particular game, right? I think Leighton Oren having a kind of like middling start to the season.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Richie Wellens project is sort of reaching its natural end there, unfortunately.
