Second half season syndrome. Teams know what to expect now, we'll be lucky to pick up another point before September.

Clearly they'll start as favourites, but we might be able to get a replay.

I wouldn't bank on it especially if we play the way we did against Ipswich as that was dire

Avon Royal This is a real wake up call - the worst I've seen a Reading team play in ages - worse than Plymouth and QPR away in recent years.

If Dellor is blaming the officials he's lost the plot. Was a hand ball in the build up to the first goal but that's it.

Players look like they couldn't care less.


Are you at the game AR?


Unfortunately yes - and thanks to Jobi I'll now have to stay for the second half! :wink:

Cardiff have been average at best, if they were half decent they would have scored 5 or 6. Highlight of the first half was watching all the Soul Crew wannabes running away from the rain.

I think we would all have taken 6 wins from 8 games so hardly a disaster. Cardiff are formidable at home. Well done Jobi on yet another goal.

Good teams dont have off days generally, an off day for top teams is a defeat, not a mauling.

Three goals conceded in 45 minutes is pretty poor even against a team that is strong at home. This also follows on from a pretty lack lustre performance against Ipswich. We got away with the latter because they were so poor. Cardiff are clearly a different proposition and, unfortunately, it sounds as though many of the players haven't improved from Saturday's performance.

Still, the prospect of a return to the PL must have been worrying at least one individual. Far too expensive you know.
