    We bossed that half apart from the last 5 minutes, they came right back into it. We really need a second.

    The way this second half's going I'll be delighted if we can hang on for the 1 - 0.

    Question, Why do the Scottish games always finish within a min or two of 4.45? Do they not have any injury time or a shorter half time break.

    Threw away two points here today, against a poor Reading side, conceding in the 90th minute, must do better...............<ok>

    They weren't poor second half, they were the better side, but it was two points dropped never the less, pretty gutting.

    It's amazing that we're still second after 2 points from the last 9.
    Leeds losing again is a bonus, although I'm sure Leeds think they are better than they really are and will lose a few more.
    We need to get back to winning ways before we end up plummeting down the table.

    A classic case of not putting the game to bed by half-time. I knew it would end up 1-1. It's so FRUSTRATING.

    Good first half overall , but their keeper had little to do after we scored which was concerning we had a lot of the ball but huffed and puffed with too slow deliveries and movement off the ball, the second half Reading played like we did in the first and although they didn't really threaten they took their chance well , gutting that the ref although not the reason for the result and our poor performance we should have been playing against ten men . The game was crying out for wingers Byers had a mare , he's great to come on to see the game out but stifled any creativity in the middle . Garrick has played in 3 games this week so well done to him but why wasn't Routledge available , with a dedicated winger and Celina could have moved into the number 10 slot where he's more of a threat

    Bubble has definitely burst and it is lucky results have been going our way.....Poor first and second half for a team at the top at home...No improvement for 4 games now from when we were scoring for fun at the start of the pre season and the first start of the season....Reading looked more likely to score and yet again we are lucky just to drop 2 points.....Something is not working and gone off the boil with Coopers tactics or he has been found out this early in the season....Honeymoon period well and truly over now and Cooper and the team need to get their act together and put a halt on the part of the game that is not working for them....

    One thing I still can't fathom is the standard of reffing. He should be publicly disciplined for not issuing a second yellow yesterday. Not sour grapes, just bemused.

    Shocking non decision, a clear pull back right in front of the linesman and ref but it only warranted a talking to .
