Think our fans received a bit of a wake up call, having seen it for weeks on social media Blues fans harping on about how we are going to walk the league, not lose a single game etc. Reading came at us and fought, they pressed really well and in all fairness if they were in the championship they would do well playing like that.
What it did show is that each team this season will bring their A game against us and we need to fight for each point, there were glimpses of good play and when Hansson came on we looked much better, though at other times I felt I was watching one of Southgate's teams with the sideways and backwards passing. The number of shots flattered us and I felt Reading should have walked away with more, I think that's where the quality or lack thereof was noticeable because though they had great chances they just could not finish.
If we are in and around the play off mix for our first season in league 1 I would be happy with that, a season of gelling, getting everything together and then a promotion or title push even next season.
