Anybody else really enjoy that?

[delmbox]

Not the result obviously. But can't fault the effort, it was one way traffic most of the match, and not all hoofball either. The most I've enjoyed a City match for a long time.

Why oh why though does Mick insist on wasting Giles on the right? Credit to Brown though he put in some far better crosses than I'd have imagined he would.

Bowen did well too, and McGuinness and Pack had good games

From what I managed to watch on my dodgy stream (season ticket holder but can't walk at the moment) we could have easily won. The problem is we have limited quality and it's a results business. I can't see how anyone can have enjoyed that because we lost.

Just back. Thoroughly enjoyed the game. 100% effort from City, but when you lose Wilson, Ojo, et al, you're very limited in how you can play. I don't think City could have played any better, but defend the crosses and set pieces and you're 95%on the way to stopping City scoring.

100% effort, but about 1% quality. Reading were mediocre and we never looked like breaking them down. I thought it was grim.

You've never enjoyed a game we've lost? Having a few beers and a laugh with your mates, cheering the team on? Life's too short mate, it's just a game

Speaking of life's too short, Reading are the biggest time wasters I can remember seeing for a long long time, disgraceful.

And an added ten minutes was testimony to that yet not one Reading player booked, the time wasting was obviously noted yet not punished, why?

I have left the ground having enjoyed a game we had lost i also remember watching a one nil win under Malky and wanting the final whistle to go after about 50 minutes it was so bad

Hmmmm I get what you mean and I'd enjoy the overall experience with mates as you mentioned but for me I go to watch Cardiff win matches. Never been an "all about the taking part" type of guy.

So you'd want Cardiff to win but would enjoy the overall experience with your mates even if they didn't then

[life on mars]

All you want is effort and commitment, losing with that gives you hope.

Depends what mood my mates are in 😂 but I read your post as if you enjoyed the game. I would have left the ground thinking," well that was ****ing frustrating and overall I didn't enjoy that 90 minutes". I wouldn't think, " but at least Darren made a cracking joke at 56 minutes". In waffling now😂 I wouldn't have enjoyed it overall. The end 😂

�� yeah I did actually walk away from that having enjoyed the football, we were basically attacking for the entire second half and that was a pleasant change. It was frustrating though. Jeez what a waste of internet this little exchange has been

tbh Darren hasn't been on good form lately so it's good to see him proving his doubters wrong.

Hahaha nice chatting mate

No City fan can fault the effort of the team today.
We lacked quality in the final 1/3 to open them up - that’s all we lacked today.
Best in weeks.

Against an average Reading team who have loads of injuries, not good enough.

I suppose it just goes to show how bad it has been that some enjoyed losing home to a midtable team.

Exactly

I was thinking exactly that.

We lost at home to an injury ravaged, mid table Reading team. No, it wasn't as bad as losing 5-1 at Blackburn and being stuffed by West Brom but footballing wise it wasn't great. We could still be playing now and wouldn't have scored.

[Trigger]

I think our expectations have diminished so much. It wasn't awful but let's be honest, Reading outside of their penalty area and one Hoilett shot were pretty awful and we still didn't create much.

Lots of shots which didn't threaten, decent pressure. I don't remember their keeper having much to do but act like he'd been shot.

He made a couple great saves in the second half and we hit inside of post - we should have scored really
