The Royals boss didn't hide his disappointment after his team's performance at Deepdale.

Reading FC have now lost both of their away games this season in the Championship.

"I'm not happy," Stam told Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio Berkshire's Tim Dellor. "Today we couldn't bring what we needed to do.

"If you play against a side like this...you need to bring everything to the game.

Today it wasn't what we expected [from the side]."

And Stam was frustrated with the refereeing decisions early on in the game, where Preston appeared overly physical in some of their challenges.

"I think straight away it's a yellow card...I think you need to do something about that.

"There were a couple of other incidences as well in pushing and shoving where he didn't [give a yellow card]."
