'Legs' Leigertwood comes permanently ...

This from the BBC:

A statement on the club website (Reading FC) said the Royals would pay a "substantial fee" for the 28-year-old who joined them on loan in November.

Since moving to the Madjeski Leigertwood has made 28 appearances and only been on the losing side twice.
The Angtiua international said: "I'm delighted. I've been very happy since the first minute I got here."
The deal will go through on 1 June when the domestic transfer window opens. Leigertwood added: "I've been made so welcome. It's such a good club and it's been a good season - now I'm hoping it can get even better."

---------------------

I believe that this was to be expected; the fact of going out on loan meant he was unlikely to fit in with Ranger's premiership campaign. This news will almost surely be greatly welcomed by Reading fans, so I'd be interested in your reactions. Ah, and also to QPR fans on their ex-player (and good luck next season; hope we're there with you!).

He started well with us but seemed to lose confidence quickly. The last time i saw him play he came on as sub at home to(i think) Norwich and he was terrible!! Couldnt make a 10 yard pass, gave the ball away and basicly looked like a conference player. I have spoken to Jay Tabb about him and he thinks he is a class act at Reading so i realy hope for him and Reading fans he's finaly found his home and can fulfill his potential.

thanks rrrrs - yep, seems to be a totally different player in 2011 to what you knew him like. That must teach us that confidence is as important as talent!
