@Read1O6 @bluewhitewall If Hunt was backed by RC we would be in the play offs.We went to the likes of Mansfield & Wimbledon and parked the bus and still got beat. LR is more worried about what they will do to us than what we can do to them. Fans can’t be bothered anymore & ST won’t be renewed.

@MichaelTSS55 @bluewhitewall Blackpool away we did. We haven’t been smashed once this season either tho. If Richardson was here at the start of the season it’s hard not to think we’d be currently comfortably in the playoffs

Here comes the reactionary fans saying sack Leam Richardson. We weren't good enough today but he has raised the standards and got us challenging for playoffs. This is a side that everyone was predicting to be in a relegation battle... we were till Leam arrived. #ReadingFC

@Read1O6 @bluewhitewall Fair enough that’s your opinion.I can’t remember the last time we dominated a game & won with ease. Even fans from other teams say how shite we are. LR makes subs at the same time in the game every week, what use is putting a def on for a def for the last 4 minutes.He is clueless

@MichaelTSS55 @bluewhitewall Agree the football isn’t good but the results haven’t been luck either. Been too long to be lucky now. If results do change it’d be because we’ve been figured out. I’m willing to judge Richardson at the start of next season after a proper pre season

@bluewhitewall @longlaneroyal And now we are close to the play offs we have bottled it. Richardson’s negative football. It’s not the players it’s the manager. Any half decent manager would have us sat comfortably in the play offs now. He has somehow made a decent squad of players look very average at best.

@longlaneroyal They are now trying to achieve playoffs. They were trying to stay up when he arrived. Everyone was saying this squad would be in a relegation battle this season...

@Read1O6 @bluewhitewall The football has been terrible, those last min winners have covered over the cracks. With JM being injured it shows how bad we are. LR has turned the likes of Wing and Savage into average L1 players. No identity, negative approach to games and has no clue what to do.

@MichaelTSS55 @bluewhitewall People said our luck was running out at Wimbledon then we went on another run

@bluewhitewall I disagree, he was a bad appointment and you don’t need a full summer of pre season to get the best out of the players. He is massively underachieving with the squad he has and is a one trick pony. Next season will be even harder to get out of. Do you enjoying watching Reading?

@MichaelTSS55 Best striker in the league, some key injuries don't help. Ultimately it is a squad that was expected to be in a relegation battle. Without a full summer of pre-season and signings, he has done a good job. We are now better & we expect them to iron out small issues to get playoffs

LR has shown he can’t adapt to a game/teams. Makes the same subs at the same time every week. So boring and negative to watch. He has made a decent squad look like Sunday league player.

@RCouhig the cracks are starting to appear. Been blagging points for too long now.We have a decent squad but under LR have been getting worse by the week. We had 1 shot on target and the keeper made 0 saves all game, we set up to just defend but can’t defend and it’s so negative

@Stephan65595292 @RCouhig @ToddTrosclair Well said. I keep reading about @RCouhig wants to hold events/concerts at the stadium and get full use out of it. Maybe start by getting the football right and that will bring in crowds. PA system belongs on the antiques road show, refreshments sold out before ko. It’s got worse

@RCouhig @ToddTrosclair “Football for the people” The people aren’t happy! The people aren’t buying in to this style of football, the people will eventually stop attending games as it’s such a negative watch. Players will not want to be a part of this in the summer #readingfc

@Rustybhole @TomMaroney @GOpionator @RCouhig It’s just happening too often. Wimbledon and today showed us up. Where we have got a result in the last 4-5 games we have blagged it. So negative and we end up getting what we deserve

@MichaelTSS55 @TomMaroney @GOpionator @RCouhig Just needs to adjust the method and mental side for 2nd halves. Still a team in very much a transitional phase and to be where we are is still pretty good. Disappointment for today though as we really should have taken the points.

We’ve got good players, so why does it look this flat?No identity, no urgency, no belief. We’re playing like a side clinging on. It feels like the fight and freedom have been coached out of them. Where’s the style? Where’s the direction? #ReadingFC @RCouhig

@TomMaroney @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig Fair enough, it’s all about opinions.

@MichaelTSS55 @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig Of course I can't defend today's performance and result, but yes, we'd absolutely be sitting in playoffs if he started the season.

@TomMaroney @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig Still of the same opinion? Richardson is so negative. 96 minutes against Port Vale and we can’t score in open play and even with another lucky goal we can’t kill the game off.

@MichaelTSS55 @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig I agree we should be better, but if Richardson started the season we'd comfortably be sitting in the playoffs.

@Stephen_Noakes Let’s see, Should Richardson be sacked?

As a fan you are entitled to stay home if you aren't entertained and our dropping attendances may reflect that but football is a results business and if you're calling for Richardson to be sacked because the football is shite, you're in the vast minority #readingfc

Another game to add to his cv of terrible games. Can’t score in open play, could have quite easily have lost today. Same old shite. Scrap a goal and sit on it and can’t see out a game. We are our own worst enemies. @RCouhig #ReadingFC

@TomMaroney @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig And this squad should be doing far better than this.We don’t control games. Clueless against Wimbledon,Wigan we scraped it, Wycombe we threw away a 2-0 lead and lucked a winner, Bolton we scored & just sat back for 90 mins. Teams aren’t scared of us.We should be better than this.

@MichaelTSS55 @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig The squad Hunt had shouldn't have been anywhere near a relegation battle.

@TomMaroney @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig If Hunt had the backing I think we would be in a better position. It makes no sense. RC clearly didn’t want Hunt as he didn’t back him. Why did he wait until half way through the season to make changes and then back a manager.

@MichaelTSS55 @Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig Sticking with Hunt 🤣 We'd still be in a relegation battle under him...

@LegacySiu Aston Villa

Name a football club without letter "E" You can’t

@GOpionator @Rustybhole @RCouhig LR has somehow taken a decent squad full of potential and coached the identity & belief out of them.We look clueless,no style,no urgency,no confidence.RC didn’t want Hunt but why keep him on & set him up to fail.Honestly,can you genuinely say you enjoy watching Reading right now?

@MichaelTSS55 @Rustybhole @RCouhig How can you possibly say that? The records are not even comparable. So with actual facts you still throw that out there. Performances are the same. Leam has done brilliant with tools he’s got. He can’t turn players into world beaters. He can’t magic pace. Lost for words.

@Rustybhole @GOpionator @RCouhig Whilst the table doesn’t lie, a lot of the results under LR have painted over how bad we have become. I don’t see any progress at all. 7th-8th is good progress but under a better manager or even sticking with Hunt and backing him, I believe we would be chasing the top two.

@GOpionator @MichaelTSS55 @RCouhig Someone that sees it for what it is. Yes we’re are not great but from 20th to 7th-8th in 18 games is fairly good. Last night although too deep 2nd half our shape and structure was sound. Needed a bit more ball retention but otherwise ok.
