That might be enough to wobble Reading,

Need a seriously better performance second half though.

We haven’t been great but i think its down to a mixture of lax refereeing and the formation not working today. Hopefully they sort it at half time. Atmosphere been really subdued today. Loads of consumers instead of supporters it seems.

Where's the Sky Blues Gone, Where's the Sky Blues Gone..... Come on city. This poor league run is giving a lie to the first 15 games we played. West Brom and Us are doing a Bristol City.
It will take some effort to beat last season's total based on our performances of late.

The manager needs to change things. We are not an unlucky side...it's all pretty self-evident that we deserve to be where we are in the league. Now, I'll take a peek at the scores and hope that this helped!

Probably the first time this season where we actually have a result that’s better than what we deserve. Should be 2 or 3 down

The Bidwell signing has troubled me from the start. On paper I get it, 300 games at this level and a permanent signing in a position we had little back up in but..... he'll be expensive in comparison to most of our squad and on the back of the Kane signing I was concerned that we were just starting to go down the route of signing average Championship players on high salaries with little room for growth.

Haven't seen anything from him yet on the pitch, outside of a couple of half decent crosses, to justify it. Looks slow, short, uncomfortable going forward with the ball.

Poor half but we've got more than enough to go and win this second half.


I prefer Dabo to Kane in this system. Dabo gets up and down the line much better and we really miss his energy on that right flank

To be honest we have conceded in other games when playing well so about time we scored when playing rubbish

From minute 15ish to 44 we were poor. Not convinced about Bidwell/Maatsen, and Kane having a stinker. Really hope we shake it up a bit, as we've looked sloppy and some of those yellows were indicative/needless. (Hamer misses nest 2 games?) Think I'd get Allen on the pitch.

I honestly want him to bring on tavares so if he does shite everyone will shut up and stop demanding him to play and if he does do well Obviously he might help us win the game

He at least will have some pace to burn in this leggy performance

I’d get Bidwell off for Allen, and move Maatsen back.

Especially towards the end, even if Gyo is isolated up front and is running the channels it will give him an option.

Very poor so far but with a bit of luck for once which gives us an opportunity. We should be 2-3 down. Very sloppy and little appetite to close Reading down or win second balls. Let’s hope we can take that bit of luck and beat a team on a bad run of form. We will have to be a lot better second half though.

People say it as a joke that people want Tavares because “he’s very fast” but if he went on upfront he would add something with pace and energy. We look so lethargic

Might improve in his more natural position. Plus Bidwell booked.

You can just tell the energy levels aren’t there. If nothing else let’s inject some

Undeserved equaliser...but we will take it. Surely we cany play worse.

Rose having a mare vs Jao...kane and Bidwell are shite first half.

On a fan note. The row in front have done nothing but swing their handbags at the home fans since they went 1 up. Embarrassing.

Have we still used fewer players than any other club? If so, it shows.

You’d think he’d easily do better than Bidwell on the left though.

Wouldn’t be surprised if we had. Giving Robins no help in January this is the consequence

Not forgetting that Reading fans thought we were rubbish (When we beat them) and that Reading should have been stuffing us.
