    It is about time that something is done about the timekeeping at games. 5 additional minutes was not enough, and then, when the clock struck 90 the play was stopped for nearly 3 minutes and they made two substitutions after that. the ref blew up exactly on 96 minutes. really annoying because with the 4 minutes that he missed we might well have grabbed a winner.
    How difficult could it be to have a fifth official with a stopwatch?

    It’s these sort of ‘should win’ games then we often lose, so a point isn’t a bad result in my eyes.
    Expecting to lose on Tuesday so anything would be a bonus

    QPR have gone unbeaten in their first eight games of the season in all competitions for the first time since 1975-76 under Dave Sexton.

    He's fractions of a second slow atm, but that makes the difference. I'm hoping it's because he's not fully fit yet. Gray looks fast and powerful and his goal should give him confidence

    Though I thought Swift looked sharp for them today and would trouble any team in this division.

    Agree. This is a draw that for me feels like a defeat.

    Josh Bowler scored Blackpool's winner against the Ruperts.

    Agree. We really messed up our lead and put ourselves into trouble.

    Great that we got out of the mess - but I feel it was of our own making.

    Don't be too disappointed, according to the Beeb, whilst we had lots of possession 61% and 22 shots, only 4 were on target. So to score two out of four (excluding own goal) is pretty good.
    Just need a bit more shooting practice.

    Austin has never been quick, but he's downright slow now. Hopefully Dykes will be back for Tuesday.

    Poland came in for criticism on here for celebrating a draw against England as if it was the World Cup final.

    So I was making a loose, tongue in cheek comparison...but if I'd been at Reading, I'd have been jumping around with the rest

    Opposite for me.
    3-1 down with 10 minutes left and draw 3-3 is an outstanding result.

    This result is very reminiscent of the game v Derby in 2010/11 season. Never say die, never give up. Well done lads and all our fans who took over their ground.
