Meh another pathetic away performance. Al-Habsi stopped it being a thrashing.

1 win in 19 away games is awful. We need to be tight at the back and set up to try and nick 0-0s away from home and be hard to beat.

We move on.

Very poor. Looked no danger on the ball. Thought we might lose the ball and concede quite often. Strange game. Our fans were very subdued as well throughout.

WE have four very good wingers-but without any strikers , having four is a luxury we can ill afford.

Kermit & Denis are not up to it-lets hope Mendes (?) can do something ?

Listened this PM to Mick and Dim, and it seemed we hardly posed any kind of threat over 90 plus minutes.

Forget Liam Moore-get a striker from somewhere-anywhere.

Bit pointless if you cant set him up with chances though.

Dutch Adkins?? We will win nothing with Kermogant leading the line

Would that be the same Al Habsi that allowed Malone to head in a corner frrom all of 6 inches ? tbf i just watched the shy highlights (it didn`t show a single Reading attack. he made a few good saves.

Bloody hell, the doomy divs are out in force early doors.

Play your football higher up the pitch, that's all we've ever needed to do. We just invite pressure on to ourselves by knocking it around our own back four.

Crux, I bow to you're superior knowledge of football, Kermogant will be a French International by mid season, my son told me that!!

Was aimed at the Adkins comment but I wouldn't expect someone like you to get it.

Honestly that was the very definition of tame and any sense of renewed optimism has evaporated just like that. On par if not worse than a lot of the dross we were served up last year. To me it had all the characteristics of a team uncomfortable and uncertain with the style of play, which is expected it is early doors after all. Very disappointing though it took us to concede 2 goals before we started to show a bit of urgency. I'm all for the possession game but you don't win any points for it, and passing it around the back 5 is never going to challenge the opposition. At least 70% of our possession in the first half must have been in our on third and as soon as we broke into their half we fell to pieces and lost it.

We could have been playing all week and not scored and I doubt Wolves will have an easier game all season, we were so pedestrian we might as well have not even got off the bus. I'd say it's hard to break play against a team with 11 men behind the ball but seeings how most of our football was played in our own half it's kind of expected. The whole aim is to pass and move, drag players out of position, find pockets of space and really play with some kind of purpose and idea, that was lacking today. Little movement, no creativity, no clue. Credit to Wolves they were organised, stronger, harder in the tackle and broke with pace and accuracy. Every time they got the ball they did something with it. That being said I think we made them look a lot better than they were, we were that poor.

Al-Habsi 6 - made a fair few saves but also got us into trouble

Gunter 5 - Not his worst performance but pretty oxf*rd average. Beaten too easily for their first.

McShane 5 - Seeing McShane take 4 touches and spend 30 seconds to pass square or back is more painful than a hernia.

VDB 5 - Likewise. Not a CB.

Obita 5 - Turned inside out time and time again.

Evans 4 - Rabbit in headlights.

Williams 4 - Standard Williams of old. Appears to be doing a lot but in reality did feck all. Still can't shoot.

Swift 5 - Not his day.

Beerens 4 - ditto.

McCleary 5 - Tried but nothing came off, poor delivery.

Kermorgant 2 - Truly inept.

Subs

Meite 4 - Passionate lad but frustrating cameo. Was poor.

Harriot 3 - Ineffective

Rakels 0 - Did he touch the ball? He perfectly epitomized this reading team today. Running around like headless chickens chasing shadows and being generally clueless.

Stam 1 - Tactically incompetent. Shape of the team wasn't working so what did he do? Like for like subbing the wingers off. No plan B. Must have studied at the Brian McDermott school of half time team talks. "Right lads, lets keep it tight straight after the break".

Ref 4 - Seemed to favor the home team.
