  We shouldn't get too disheartened by that result. We had the chances. The game just seemed to get away from us. It wasn't our night.

  Would broadly agree with that. The highlights on SS are a fair reflection of the game The basis of a good team is there - just needs some fine tuning. Quinn is very unlucky not to be starting imo, and Beerens needs a rest - he looked very lethargic

  This must be the first time that I have got back from the game first. Usually I'm one of the last to get back from the game. But I live in West London so tonight was my turn to get back from the game first. As I said above, I think we were a little bit unlucky tonight. We did our usual thing, trying to keep the ball, and then we gave away a silly goal. Brentford seemed to outnumber us and have men over. It looked like they opened us up too easily and got the goal. then a minute later they got the second, again it looked far too easy. Scott Hogan showed good composure though to play in Vibe and he did the rest. But we had chances as…

  Well that was just a bit of an omnishambles, especially first half. We kept the ball in patches, but didnt create anything, with Yann hugely isolated up front. Hit the post and then conceded quickly twice In Succession, with both Moore at fault for the first and McShane for the second as both overcommitted. Thought the centre halves were too Far apart all game and the midfield three were anonymous first half with VDB having an absolute mare and deservadly subbed at half time. Created a few chances, hit the post twice and a header off the line, but you cannot defend like that and hope to win games. Motm - hard one to give but though…

  i may as well kick off the player ratings as I'm one of the first back. Al Habsi - 9 Probably our man of the match. We created most of our own problems this evening giving the ball away so often and getting caught out at the back and Al Habsi bailed us out every time. He even had to show flashes of Messi in a couple of situations when under pressure. He didn't let us down. Gunter 6 - Not his best game. Did alright but guilty of giving the ball to the opposition a few too many times tonight. CB: McShane 6 - Won everything in the air but we let in four goals. Put others under pressure with some wayward passes and others put him under…

  I just watched the highlights on SS, so obviously can't give much of a view but from what I watched, Brentford seemed that bit more clinical going forward and infront of goal, and also took adavantage of a couple of errors from us. We certainly had our chances too, Evans headed against the post at 0-0, perhaps if that gone in it could have been a different story, then we had a Kermy header cleared off the line at 2-0 down and Harriott also struck a post with the score at 3-0. Looks like our luck just wasn't in tonight, nothing to be too worried about, this is only one game and we will move on from this and keep progressing. The…

  We looked half decent until the goal, which looked to be the result of diving in in the centre of the park( couldn't see who) which left an overload on their right. Second goal just before the break knocked the stuffing out of us and we never really recovered, save a 7/8 minute period leading up to the penalty. Home crowd we awful, even after the goals. Reading were in quite good voice... Bit much with the peado stuff IMO, but otherwise good value. 4/10

• SR Stockport Royal 27 Sep 2016 · 11:44pm

  Just didn't come off today, quite a few sloppy passages of play, but it was more down to Brentford being clinical and having a good day at the office. Agree with the comment about the home fans, awful, they were struggling to muster anything even at 4-1. Let's hope for a quick response against vydra and friends on Saturday
