Reading midfielder Jay Tabb says their defeat at Wigan Athletic was a "joke".
The Royals led 1-0 at the DW Stadium, only to concede a last-gasp winner to the hosts lose the game 3-2 - not the first time they have given up a lead this season.
"It's a joke really. How many times have we taken the lead this season and we've won once. We've got to change that. We didn't come into this league to get battered every week.
"We're getting into good positions, we're just not seeing it out, and something's got to change or it's going to be a long, hard season.
"As players we've got to be on the same wavelength and we're obviously not. We're either too deep or too high, we're all over the place at the moment. That's what it feels like on the pitch."
