If they didn't go AWOL in the first part of the game then they might have beaten us. It is evident why some of these players aren't getting games at United.

Richardson is poor. And Saha? He's a predator but he just doesn't see other players that sometimes seem blatantly obvious.

Well done Reading.

Well I have to say that taking away that first 10 minutes, that was one of the worst performances ive seen from United in a long while. Our defending was just truely awful, we brought it on ourselves in the 2nd half, every time we got the ball it was given right back to Reading. Ferdinand was just terrible in the 2nd half...

We still won though because of that fluke 10 minutes when Reading just fell apart so I suppose I cant really complain too much, well done Reading too for the comeback

Fantastic performance from reading they fully deserve their place in the premiership and a place in europe next season how many teams have we seen come back like that after being down 3 nil? Most would have buried their heads in the sand.

We went to [beep!] after the break, must pay reading their respect tho they played fantastic football in the second half. Thought the shot that hit the bar was gonna mean extra-time

Jammy Mancs, per usual. They were abysmal in the 2nd half and held on by the skin of their teeth - Reading should have had a few more goals. Their passion & their determination is second to none, Coppell has something special going there and it's really admirable.

I hope they can grow into a stronger team and with a few more quality additions they can take their mid-level Premiership team status & work on from there.

Gunnarsson, jee, I thought it was written in the stars for him to be a hero when he smashed that rocket of a shot because he'd played so well 2nd half. 3 inches lower and the game was going into extra-time.

Unlucky.

I can't believe we lost. Apart from the first 10 minutes we matched United even outplaying them in the second half!

Maybe this performance will prove to you both Steely and Bluenose that we are alot better than you give us credit for.

Your damn right too...... I'm shaking my head in disgust at myself. Embarassed

Well played reading in what I call yet ANOTHER superb entertaining game. Just a shame you's fkd up in the first 5 mins. One thing I noticed in the reading side "Team spirit" "determination" Amazing and would of been a great final. I admired coppel as a player and now a manager.

i was impressed with the way a lot of the time the reading players dominated the UNited players especially in the 2nd half. I thought John Oster looked really good. Reading never resorted to route 1 football and continued to play attacking, enteraining passing football which nearly payed off - well played Reading and hats off to steve coppell

I really slumped down in my seat after the first ten minutes and really thought we would get hammered. Ingimarsson and Bikey were confused and shambolic in the first few minutes but both recovered themselves well, particularly Bikey. I honestly thought we largely dominated the game after this and really had the bit between our teeth and worked very hard. We missed Murty marshalling the back line though. It really made a difference when Little was introduced and he proved what i have always said about him. Seol Ki Hyeon is finished as a Reading player as far as i am concerned both for his poor performances, stinking attitude and lack of respect for Coppell. I also thought after the games we have played with united this yearv how extremely poor Kieran Richardson really is.

it was a pretty exciting match in the last 5 minutes. other than that it was a bit dull. 3 -0 up after 6 mins, i though it was going to be a drumming, but reading showed great bouncebackability and could have taken it to extra time.

Winning any premiership game by an emphatic a margin as that is something to be proud of
