Take a point. That second half was disgusting. #readingfc

How someone can rise to opening the batting for England and not learn how to leave a fucking ball is quite incredible. Brainless. #Ashes2025

Aside from the improvements in intensity and structure, loved that we didn’t drop too deep to hold on and kept playing. Lovely cameo from R. Williams, liked the double up RB sub to shift Ritchie inside after he was done a couple of times. Clean sheet. Can’t complain! #readingfc

The referee tonight. #readingfc

That defending is just beyond pathetic. #readingfc

The right call and the right tone in the statement. I wish Noel nothing but the best of luck, and thank him for doing his best in the most difficult of circumstances last season. Always a Royal. #readingfc

After a better performance at Cardiff, I was reluctantly content for Noel to have this week with a mandatory return of six points. He’s not got them. Marriott missing was a blow, but you can’t keep on making excuses. Woeful in attack, boring. He’s had a fair shot. #ReadingFC

Given how woeful we’ve been in attack all day, allowing those front 3 to stay on the pitch for 88 minutes is unforgivable. #readingfc

For that goal, Donny had six players in the box waiting for that cross. I don’t remember the last time I saw us get that many forward. We are just so clueless, toothless, and boring to watch. #readingfc

Some effort to manage to lose a game of football in which you could have quite easily scored seven. #readingfc

I don’t know what everyone is complaining about. Two defeats in nine. We’re on a run. #readingfc

It’s actually quite impressive just how spectacularly we capitulate following 20 minutes in a room with Noel and his coaching staff. #readingfc

We should start a petition to abolish half time. #readingfc

Slow, dull, predictable. A group of players with no spark and no plan, only staying afloat due to one man’s exceptional yet unsustainable form in front of goal. Everyone can see it, @RCouhig. #readingfc

Noel Hunt a bit dim tonight. Squad cohesion our biggest issue, int'l break coming up, just had our first league win, playing Swindon. Win tonight and it's bit of momentum, bit of cup fun and bit of pressure off. Could and should have played a much stronger side. #readingfc

Not realising that midfield three had to be switched up at HT should be a sackable offence on its own. #readingfc

Passing accuracy 56% In the final third 24% Possession 27% 0 shots. Changing the team every game only makes things worse when no one knows what they’re supposed to be doing. This doesn’t look like it’s going to get better any time soon. #readingfc

Painful. #readingfc

Had enough of this now, it’s on Noel Hunt. The exact same tactics as last season, had had a whole pre-season to bring some fresh ideas to the table, and has done absolutely nothing. This squad is being wasted. Teams know how to play against us far too well. #readingfc

Hunt proved today that he has no idea how to set up the team to get the best from the players he has. He needs to get it right and quickly. Investment concerns aside, there is no way that squad should have lost that game and performances so far are on the manager. #readingfc
