At least in the Swansea game the team showed a bit of character to fight back. This one was gutless.

Seem to be in the minority, but Swansea hurt more for me. From being in tatters at half time, to being so close to levelling with Jem hitting the post and then finally crashing back to earth was absolutely gutting.

Today felt bad, but we never really looked like scoring so didn't really feel as bad after pens, as hard as that was to take.

It's not the despair, I can take the despair, it's the hope that kills you...

The Swansea game was actually high quality and they were a strong side that year. The quality this year was really poor and that makes it worst. We really didn't have to do much to win it, and we didn't.

I'd agree with Winston if he put the less thans the right way around.

The correct answer is
Walsall worse than Bolton worse than Huddersfield worse than Swansea.

There's worse than this?!

Worse than "tv football fans" patting us on the head as if we are a joke?

Worse than all of that achievement and all of that hole, all the talk, all of it?!

I don't know how it can be worse. It's dreadful. It's probably the worst I've ever felt as a Reading fan. Even more so hearing Arsenal fans saying "so what do Huddersfield get for winning?'"

I'm sick as I wanted it so much. It felt right and I imagined us winning. I'm gutted.

I really wish Huddersfield well and I always know I wanted them to do well winor lose. Ugh ims just sick of this and feel crap

No one knows how that feels. Particularly the man united "fans" they have no idea. 4-5 penalties in. I thought we had done it. I'm sick.

Nothing will ever come close to the Bolton game . Not just missing the penalty after being 2-0 up, but the fact that in any other year, the team that finished second like we did would have got automatic promotion.

I would say Walsall was second most depressing as we were clear favorites and threw it away in a crazy couple of minutes.

This was gut wrenching for me, because at 3-1 up in the pens I had a glimmer of hope. Before the pens started I told my mate we had no chance of winning these....

Bolton for me, two up, penalty to kill the game, then f*cked it up, however, yesterday's is a close second, simply because we seemed more intent in stopping them playing than imparting our game on them, making them change tactics to stop us.

Yesterday's loss is so frustrating as we are better than that.

Out of the two options given then it's Swansea for me, the only reason it doesn't seem as bad is cos we went up the season after.

I know I felt worse after Swansea than I did yesterday.

Oh well, one day I may see us win a play off final
