If I had to choose I'd rather Brighton win and Reading lose. Promotion is more important then winning the league.

All the build up about us smashing them 3/4 nil was never going to happen. Especially with all the changes made. Make changes yes, but six? C'mon.

From the BBC "Owen Coyle will be pleased with how his team have stood up to this test so far today.

The home fans are growing frustrated as their team struggle to break down the Rovers defence."

Hope we don't start going quiet.

I'm sorry but I would have much preferred this team play in the cup. The league is priority and Rafa has changed over half the team for this match thinking it will be enough, and by the sounds of it, it clearly isn't.

The line up is still a strong one despite the changes. I don't think Rafa is taking this game for granted.

Disappointing first half. Need to turn up the energy for the second
