Entertaining game. Good point, which I would’ve taken at the start of the game. Poor defending from both sides, but I guess that’s what makes entertaining football games. Looked decent going forward and created some good chances.

Coming from behind twice will give them the confidence that they actually can do it if they let one in, which they haven’t looked like doing for the majority of the season.

Royalwaster First time all season that we've conceded more than 2 goals?


Cup. Lost 3-1 at Wednesday.


Aye, but haven’t lost by more than 2.


Shhh!

If we can win Tuesday (I know) it`s a 7 point gap from the drop zone.

We really have to aim to win that one. Sheff Utd are no great shakes and we seem to have a bit of something about us again. Would be a huge 3 points

Tiago Illori should be arrested for crimes against defending.

All in all a better home display with much improved entertainment value.

Says something when we're happy with a home point, 3-3, 0-0 no difference, will we ever win game again ?

I definitely overreacted but I'm so jaded from not winning at home. The goals we conceded today were so poor

Yeah, it's dreadful coming from behind twice to draw against a team in the top six when our home form is abysmal.

Why would THAT performance change anything? There is no consistency in the team or the management. We could well get beaten Tuesday and be rubbish.....that's how most of the patterns have been this season. If we were mid table and we had games like that for a lot of the season I would be quite happy. Sadly we are still 4 points from safety and can afford no more f*ck ups, otherwise we will be right in thee mix.

Er... by literal definition of being 4 points ahead we can afford at least two more 'oxf*rd ups' like Derby.

I thought you might be too, given that you predicted a loss.
It's a funny thing, though. It's those that predict defeats that are usually the most unhappy.

Is that so?

Show me evidence that backs that outrageous statement.

Thank you Miss Marple, I'm not unhappy , I want my team to win , it's actually the future of the club that upsets me more than this season.

The prediction league is good fun , sorry for having some light relief during this crap season

Hound Shows the small margins in the division that a very basic Derby side are 4th. Team of old fat slow cloggers

I thought that too. Was utterly unimpressed by Cardiff too when they came here. Villa were poor too and we gave Wolves a good ol game as well. It’s the lower teams who just come for the point that have been our undoing this season ( together with our inane ability for a defensive ricket)

How do you mean? On the field? Off it? Assuming we stay up, not too much will have changed long term, will it?

According to Get Reading, Gary Rowlett is not happy with the ref (among other things). he says the Red card should not have been a Red as the ref. was swayed by the Reading bench jumping up as if somebody had been critically injured. Kelly's goal should never have been allowed as just before it should have been a Derby throw in, not Readings. Anyone who was there, care to comment?

He also said they are conceding silly goals from open play! Join the club Mr. Rowlett, mind you he did not mention the three silly goals we gave away, though.

Can’t really argue that much with the red - just a really shit tackle - studs showing, 2 feet.

One of those that may have been given a yellow but certainly not a poor decision

He's probably not happy that you don't know what his name is.
