4-4 now.

We would have been out of sight against Arsenal with our players that are too good for League One, especially after we stuffed them 1-6 last time.

Get in!!!!! Not ive not got that excited about a goal in a long while!!

Arsenal pull back from 4-0 !!!!

Readings loss!!

Complaining about injury time going over, even though it was them who made a sub, and their fans held the ball preventing a thrown for atleast 30 seconds! Proves the time is always (or most of the time) added on!!!

Does this make Reading worse than us at losing a lead? Dont recall us losing a 4-0 lead before (not yet anyway...)

Only because I doubt any of us recall us having a 4-0 lead. Probably haven't in my life time.

Care to share when the last time we went 4-0 up was? I remember a couple of big wins with Eric black, but I don't think we went 4 up in them.

We hae had some. Few and far between though. Rushden and Crewe games must have had a fair few goal difference at some point (was it 6 or 7-1 V Rushden in the cup at Highfield Road? 5-1 v crewe? Might be out on these scores; its late and im tired and cba to check if this is fact or not )

Not just twice; just two examples. Three if you include the Barnsley mention above (maybe even twice v them)

Jesus! Now Reading have made it 5-5!!

There was a game under Eric Black where we went 4 up inside 30 minutes.

Best got two in the last 4-0 against Barnsley, best attacking performance from the City seen in a long time(and we had some good results under Dowie as well).

After 4-0 i was screaming at us to stop attacking, as I had a fiver on a 4-0 at 40/1, never been so relieved to see us miss chances.

A few days later Ranson sacked Dowie, and the exciting Chris Coleman era was just beginning..

I would say CovLis was born in 86.

Unless she is 86 of course.

Shame that tomorrows papers will probably be around the officials again! Although tbf to Mr Friend he got everything right tonight imo! Its not Man U so they most likely wont analyse what a game that was!

That was two home games in a row, 4-0 against Burnley and 4-1 vs Preston, it was hard to believe it was actually Coventry City.
