Just a typical Reading performance against teams out of form and in the lower half of the table. Still not as bad as drawing with 8 man bottom of the table Yeovil a couple of years ago.

Well yeah we've been making a habit out of it for a decade.

Even the 106 season we struggled to beat Crewe who eventually got relegated. http://www.royals.org/matdoc/040206.html

Well at least with McD you can hope he'll get a reaction out of the team - with Clarke it would just be move onto the next crap result.

Sa must defo be off.... I mean, Simon Cox, he's a nice lad but a professional footballer? And is it just me, but I always think him and Churchy are one and the same, twins.... about as effective as each other, too.

I think I've finally given up on Vydra today. Tries hard, lots of creative ideas, just doesn't cut the mustard.

Still glad Blackman has moved on - better for the team - but we still desperately need a striker.

This season is a right off - mid-table mediocrity at best - and so not convinced that the old Frog from Bournemouth is the answer, either. Total kettle of fish compared to timing of the crock Roberts.

On the train home....

Overall pretty woeful, I can't remember a clear cut chance other than Vydra at the end of the first half. Looked argon ally better once we went 442, but in all honesty couldn't have looked much worse.

Highlight of the day was probably the ball bouncing all the way down the Yokohama advertising, which about sum up how poor the rest was.

Special shout out to the lad in the DM's who was asleep after 15 minutes

Agree, perhaps another coach will take the rap and be shown the door !

P!ssed Off Though tbf Vydra's howler had nothing on the ref's.
The straightest red card you've ever seen and he completely bottled it.


Was right in line with this
Unbelievably bad decision . It's exactly what that rule was brought in for
No doubt we wouldn't have been able to break down ten men but at least we wouldn't have lost

Which rule (sic)? No matter how loud people shout "he's last man ref" that doesn't make it the actual rule

You could argue he was along way away from goal and heading further away. Which is clearly why the red thought yellow was enough.

The rule about denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity. What did you think I meant?!
Couldn't be clearer and how the hell was he heading further away from goal? He was running towards it!

Dellor would support the ref by saying that it was Vydra and therefore couldn't possibly have been a clear goal scoring opportunity!
