    Good game this so far. Colourful too. No problem telling those two kits apart!

    Why areas of empty seats?

    Football League were greedy with ticket prices - my girlfriend is in the Huddersfield end with her folks, her ticket cost £63. Might have gone myself if the prices didn't take the piss.

    (Instead I am sat in the Blythe Hill Tavern in Catford watching it with a Guinness. I might have the better deal.)

    Dull first half since the early chances for Huddersfield. Can't remember a shot on target.

    Was talking with a Reading fan at work... Apparently tickets in the gods where just under £40 whilst the lower tier was over £90.

    This for a Championship game when most regular fixtures are less £40 themselves!!

    I hardly watch Sky. Who is the pundit in the middle, and what has he got on his head?

    Cagey game so far, although Brown should have definitely put Huddersfield ahead.

    Reading committing so many fouls and pretty much getting away with it .. surely they will win with a last gasp goal ..
    for me ? .. a Terrier win would be good for a change though I doubt they'd survive in the premier for too long

    That's outrageous. No wonder the ground was only a fifth full yesterday.

    And the cheaper tickets were for about two or three rows at the top - that was all. Most seats were £60+. So for Huddersfield fans, you're looking at north of £100 each including travel.

    It's a very frustrating match, hoping Wagner puts Colin Quaner on soon.

    The difference in quality between these two teams and Millwall is immense. Not watched any Championship football this season. I think the gap between the Championship and League One has increased considerably since I was last able to make a comparison.

    not very good game IMO. Not many chances & very scrappy play - doesn't help that Reading have no width.

    As for yesterday's half empty stadium, Blackpool only sold around 8k tickets due to their fans boycott.

    Huddersfield look the better team but neither side has created much. Odds on Extra Time.

    Gutting to see Kasey Palmer and Andy Hughes discussing tactics. What could've been...

    Bloke behind me in the pub has just declared that Kermogant "couldn't do anything for Charlton" - strangely, he wasn't a spotty Belgian nerd.

    Nah, he just bought a round, so can't be.

    Turns out he's a Millwall fan, so clearly has very limited knowledge.

    Certainly not a classic and very likely to go to pens.

    Since I said it was a good game it's been really dull. Been painting the loo (not a euphemism) and dippinvin and out. Might watch the extra time whil lenthe Ceiling dries. Yann apart thee isn't much to like about reading. Hope udders win. Can't see either of these surviving next season.

    Izzy Brown (stolen by Chelsea from WBA) is replaced by Palmer (stolen by Chelsea from us), both on loan at Huddersfield

    Kermorgant actually having a very good game. He rarely gives the ball away.

    Poor in quality. How many of these players would get into the Burnley or Swansea teams? Cos that's the standard both clubs would need to be to survive next season.
