    That's a bit harsh! Hunt's was blocked from a distance out, Long missed the ball completely on an open goal a couple of yards out!!

    Come on Reading! Mills deadly from corners. There are definitely more goals in this game. Reading need to be careful when committing men forward, Sinclair and Borini are like wizards for Swansea on the break.

    The Reading assistant manager was sent to the stand and one of their subs got a red card for "foul and abusive language".

    Least it wasn't a player on the pitch:p

    Can only imagine the emotions the Swansea fans are going through right now, so close to the promise land but a dangerous lead all the same:pac:

    Reading have to keep their heads.
    Over 10 mins left.

    Lots of their players on yellows - have to be patient for that all-important chance.

    Did Grifen get sent off?

    Retarded - season's work down the drain with these kamikaze goals.

    Game over, good game though.

    Long no where near good enough for Premiership based on todays performance.

    Yeah but you'd want to be a bit of an idiot to use today's game as the ONLY barometre and ignore the 25 goals he has scored this season in other Championship games including the play-off semi-final.

    Knew that Swansea would score the 6th. Reading players have been far too selfish today. The amount of times a player got himself into a great position only to give it away was ridiculous.

    I understand that, but you could also see it as Long "bottling" it to some extent.

    I do realise that Swansea have the second best championship defence but if Long can't score past that type of defence, what hope has he of scoring against Premiership teams?

    No - that is silly logic.

    He probably failed to score against one of the bottom teams in the Championship at some stage this season yet you wouldn't argue he isn't Championship standard, would you?
