Mate its got to change been saying it for years the only scorer we had was bwp and to be honest that was in league 1 , beginning to piss me off the club at this moment seems to be in a right mess ie contracts , takeovers not being able to buy its joke and a right f-- king mess
It's not sordells fault when piggot is brought on before him he must really Wonder what he's done wrong Powell must have lost faith in him so no wonder he has?
Powelly stayed out on his own and gave the fans a clap he looked so dejected.
Really hope we do the buis on saturday mate thats a long journey and 3 points would mean a great trip back home, powelly needs some luck mate his hands are tied and he is doing a great job regardless of our league position .
Didn't expect anything tonight but by all accounts we were unlucky and deserved something. Nevertheless unexpected wins for Yeovil, Barnsley & Sheff Wed made it a very bad night. Very big game at Yeovil on Saturday, lose that and we are really in the mire.
Sounded half decent but we're so powder puff with spongefoot up front , just gotta wait for him to miss another 20 chances before he puts another away and we can say how good he is again
those results from teams below made me puke
60% 13th-21st ....... 40% League One and target 10k

Sordell did well when he came on, don't understand why he doesn't play like that every week.

A mixture of confidence and horses for courses perhaps. Sounded like Kermo wasn't winning the aerial battles tonight so surprising he didn't go off instead of Church!
The first 60 mins were no different to Ipswich at home, no cohesion, poor in possession and toothless.
3 changes changed the game with a minute, credit to go to all three who showed a real urgency and attacking threat (yes including Sordell) and you wouldn't have begrudge us a point, the difference was startling.
I think it shows in the results tonight and our second performance that anyone can take anyone and we are to timid in how we play at times
Fantastic support especially in the second half - never stopped, and would have been worthy of a result on its own, the reading fans didn't know what hit them 2nd half
We're up against but at least the last 25 minutes made it look like we would be up for it!

He doesn't know where he is going to be in 6 months, moving house, moving the kids to another school, moving to a dreary part of the country - looking for work? Taking jobs he doesn't want? Uncertainty after uncertainty - for him & a lot of the players.
Sordell caused all sorts of problems when he came on. Church ran around a lot. Which one should play striker? Stewart pony until we put them under pressure, then merely average. Cousins class. Morro not up to this division, must try DD & Wood.
Thought both centre backs were pretty poor today, a lot of backing off when Reading players were stood in front of them (causing the first goal). Wood needs to come back soon because he's a lot better than either of the starters at the moment.
We release Fuller, Haynes and BWP... And were struggling for goals?! What I would do for Fuller now
It wasn't a bad management decision though was it, they were released to save on wages, we simply could not afford them and we cant afford any better than what we have.
A point would have been a decent result, but a lot of the action in front of their goal was more hit it and hope that crafted chances. We threw everyone forward - Morro had a decent cameo as a attacking midfielder for about 5 mins but took too many touches and just didn't have any luck.
Would love to see the penalty shout - if it was given as a goal kick, surely we had last contact, ergo our player was fouled in the penalty area. Guess that may have been covered on the match thread but it was bewildering from the south stand.
Fantastic support tonight and a really good reaction from the team to it as well. They looked disappointed at the end, but they had a right crack at it and had Reading doing all the defending. Not what I expected after the first half.
Let's forget the first half and, yes, we are in the shit, but what an enjoyable evening. Fantastic support in the second half especially. A Reading season ticket holding friend of mine said we were the loudest this year apart from Leeds.
We've lost 1-0 quite a few times this season. The sad thing is as soon as the opposition score you know we've lost. Very sad but the team is heading for relegation. I don't care how lazy Sordell is, I'm sure if he plays every week he will score more than Church. Running around a lot with no end product counts for nothing.

Completely different teams after the subs, not sure why church was taken off instead of yann though.
Maybe Powell finally realises that playing two wide midfielders in the wide midfield position actually works?
Great performance, just needed a little more luck in front of goal.
Wonder what he's done wrong

If there isn't our stock is falling each and every game and we look less attractive the longer it goes on.
Really fed up with the result especially as Palace (who had a little investment but all agreed used it unwisely) managed to win 1-0.
Not having a pop at CP but it does show you what a manager with a bit of guile brings.
I know the division is tight but starting to worry again.... A week ago it looked like we could easily push on.
