It took Reading FC just about one hundred seconds to concede their first goal of 2019 and boy did it set the tone for what was to come, as Swansea City strolled away with a 4-1 win in Jose Gomes’ first Madejski Stadium match in charge.
Following a tight 1-0 loss at Millwall and a seemingly decent point at QPR, the Royals returned home to suffer an indignant hammer blow that leaves them five points from safety in the Championship relegation places.
