I have never heard quotes like this from a manager before. Bear in mind this was a "must win" game in a relgation battle.
Reading manager Paul Clement:
"At the end, we got what we deserved, we were not professional for the entire game.
"I can't ever remember a situation where I've had to speak about a performance like that.
"It was shameful and embarrassing from the point where Ipswich got their first goal to the end of the game.
"It was completely unacceptable and I'm very disappointed and sorry for our fans."
These are edited quotes. He also mentioned "schoolboy errors" and "complete lack of professionalism"
I listened to the interview, Clement was asked if he would like to.discuss any individual performancs and he hesitated for a looong time before saying that would be done behind closed doors. He was so angry, I really thought he was about to lay into players on live radio. Unbelievable that most of this squad finished 3rd last season
