    You were literally the only one who did

    Replace them with some of the other professional players sitting on the bench. Quina and Bassi are excellent players but both today were way off the pace and demonstrated little or no commitment.

    It was a poor performance today, let’s not say anything different. If you’re 1-0 up v Man City, I can understand what you might want to sit in a defend that lead, but we were playing Reading!! And a poor Reading at that.

    it was a must win, we didn’t set up to win, we didn’t win (again conceding late) and as a consequence, we’re going to go down.

    Poor.

    He’s cost us at least 6 points with his stupid negativity, and it would’ve been 8 if the Middlesbrough game had gone on for another 5 or 10 minutes. If you’re not learning from making the same mistakes, at some point it becomes incompetence

    It didn't help that our 2 best outlets (Bar Morris) Bassi and Quina were absolutely toilet.

    Yet Bassi set our goal up and Quinna put the inch perfect cross in for Brittain in the last minute when we finally decided to attack again. For the last 30 minutes they were defenders not outlets which clearly isn't there game.

    Reading were a poor team but had the drive, passion and strength to bully our lightweight and today, nonexistent midfield. Once again a lack of touch line tactical ability and desire to ‘NOT LOSE’ a game, saw us fail to win a game we should have. I had my doubts about Poya and after listening to him on radio bluntpig l had my doubts confirmed, he thought we only defended for the last 20 minutes, he didn’t want to risk bringing on an attacker because the fans wouldn’t like it if we had lost! The guy is weak and lost and so are we!

    This is indeed a fair point.
