    I don't necessarily disagree but I'm not going to lambast Critchley for doing what pretty much every manager would have done. I'll happily see Lowe start the next game though.

    Some fight to come back but we can't be happy with that...a poor reading side, about 5 of whom I genuinely thought had retired!

    What a relief not to cave at 2 nil down. Win would have been amazing, and possibly not undeserved, but I'll take the draw if it means the rot has stopped.

    Unexpected very good second half. Gives the players some confidence going forward. Puzzling from Critchley to take off Roberts

    Lowe completely changed the game. Amazing how a bit of pace, ability and forward thinking works!

    Lowe looked handy when he came on - plenty of pace anyway which this side have been sorely missing for some time. No doubt he'll end up with lead in his boots soon...but he made a difference today

    Went off to cook dinner and came back to see we'd equalised.
    Nice to see some spirit and fair play to Roberts for getting both goals.

    He really is trying to do too much these days. Always looking for the million to one pass or shot when he should make the easy pass. He seems to think it’s all on him.
    Amazing that only a couple of weeks ago we dreaded this transfer window and losing Willock. On current form he won’t be getting a game.

    Good to see a bit of fight back in the team. Had a stream on but didn’t really see a lot as was working away. Saw a little bit of Lowe and he looked on it - be interesting to see what he has to offer over 90 mins (and as he gains his match fitness). Could be a good link to Willock & Chair (if he releases the bloody ball for an easy play when it’s there - mix it up Ilias). I wonder if we have anyone else coming in.

    Well played lads. Well done Roberts - well overdue (does this mean he’s a striker? :emoticon-0102-bigsm ).
    Let’s hope it’s the end of a bad run and us beginning to turn things around a bit.

    Certainly looks like we had the better of the game...

    We were well on top until they scored against the run of play, then the heads went down, let them into the game and they score again off their second shot at goal. Didn't look like much was going to happen until the introduction of Lowe, who set up Roberts for his first. At the end, it looked like only one team were going to win, unfortunately we couldn't get that elusive 3rd goal.

    Wouldn't fancy being in that Reading changing room at FT - Ince looked like he was ready to rip someone a new arsehole <laugh>

    What do we really know anyway, I would have taken off Roberts at half time and to be honest Richards wasn't great when he came on either

    I was 6 minutes out. So why not start Lowe, get ahead, watch Reading crumble and then take him off when he tires.
    Critchley’s an idiot.

    It looked like he was making a "T" with his fingers to me

    Well it's a great feeling not to lose! Fantastic first goal from Roberts. Really chuffed for him there.
