    According to soccernet here are the lineups:
    USA (G)
    Armstrong (D)
    Ivar (D)
    Rosenior (D)
    Pearce (D)
    Harper (M)
    Hunt (M)
    Kebe (M)
    Karacan (M)
    Doyle (F)
    Long (F)

    about 35 minutes gone and it is Reading 1-0 Palace thanks to a Harper goal.

    Handball on Harper in the box and Carle scores for Palace.

    3-2 now, almost over. Doyle scored twice in the 68th minute, which is quite impressive.

    Doyle scores another to complete his hattrick, and pretty much put this one away. 4-2.

    Did Doyle really score twice in the 68th? I thought that was a typo, but if it's not, well he's back!

    I would like to see that match report and see how the new people in the lineup did.

    On the Reading match tracker it said his goals were in the 65th and 69th, which seems more realistic.

    In the writeups, it says the goals were 60 seconds apart.

    I went to the match (to support Palace) - yes, Doyle's 1st & 2nd goals were within about a minute of eachother.

    Palace had to change CB at half-time and looked very vulnerable to any crosses and corners - both goals came from corners on either side (although, for my money, the linesmen on both occasions helped Reading out with poor calls - but Reading actually missed at least four other good chances to score - so it did'nt really alter the fact that Palace deserved to get beat!).

    Apparently, Reading had a bad match at Charlton last week, but on this showing, I will be surprised if they are not in the top six at the end of the season.

    We'll have to see how Sonko's departure (to Stoke) impacts that prediction.
