Did the commentator actually just start that with former Reading player McCarthy... "He is the Gee Kay?" ... oh my goodness. Ralph does have some bad influences on the club then :(

Oh and yes, great save from their keeper.

What a ball from Reed to start that move.

I would really like to know why Reed hasn't had more of a shot in the 1st team. everytime Ive seen the lad playing he looks bloody good. Vision, tenacity and he can hit the top corner too. After his debut under Poch he should have continued into a regular. Damn shame.

I agree, I think HR has been "unlucky" not to get more opportunities especially at the moment when a number of the first team seam to be struggling
 
Cracking goal from Callum Slattery ... currently 2-0 up v Aston Villa U18s.

Who is the ex Real Madrid youth player we were going sign a while back? Is he still here? Or did nothing come of it?

Do you mean the Norwegian lad? Real Madrid signed him as a 16 year old I think and there was a rumour a season or so back we were in for him on loan. As far as I am aware, he is still there. Martin Odegaard

Because the last three managers haven't rated him that highly.

Problem is, instead of who?

Right now he's not getting in ahead of Romeu for the DM position

Niall Mason? He was released from our Academy last year, and signed by Aston Villa. He's now playing with Doncaster on loan...started as an attacking mid as a youth, but has been deployed in defense since joining Villa.
