Results starting to look familiar, and not in a good way.  Dropping too many points when games are there to be won.  Needs sorting out and quick or we'll be 'there or thereabouts' the playoffs again.   I didn't see the game today so will be interested to hear the views who did.

The only consolation is I failed to see any of that!

Shit result down to a lack of clinical forward play(again) and appalling defensive structure. We’re already drawing too many games again. Jedinak and Chester are far too slow as a pair.

Just fcuk off Bruce.  Post match cliche bingo:

‘That’s the championship.’

‘Var would sort these decisions out.’

‘Every game in this division is tough.’

‘We’ve lost seven, eight maybes nine players from the play off final.’

‘ I can’t believe the boy Fredericks wasn’t sent off.’

Very poor.  A good start to the season and now 4 points behind top 2.  We need to take our chances and kill teams off.

So frustrating.

Someone makes this joke pretty much every week.  There must be more original ways to slag off the manager.

And, the ref looked happy to give a dubious penalty in 93 min. Ffs

These are the games where it should be a routine three points and two or three goals added to the goal difference.  Until that's sorted the levels of frustration with Bruce will continue to soar. 

The irony is that should there not have been two last minute equalizers in the last week, we'd be a point better off.

At the end we had a RB at LB, a CB at RB, a CM at CB, a LB at LW and a LW as forward when Reading scored.

Groundhog season in the making. We will not get promoted automatically with this manager and his staff.
Even with the embarrassment of riches he has and has had since his fucking arrival.
