Super first half. Look an excellent team.

Not too much wrong with that, apart from the reffing. Gelhardt blatantly fouled yet again as McKinstry was scoring.

3-0 McKinstry again

Poor goalkeeping again from the Reading keeper

Allen and Dean on for Gelhardt and Jenkins on the hour.

Kiko has had a pretty good game, some suspect kicking but otherwise he has made a couple of good saves.

Earl, didn't think Charlie had much influence on the game. Didn't think he had a poor half an hour but we looked better, as you'd expect, with Gelhardt and Jenkins, him and Max Dean are both very young and it's good they are getting minutes with the 23's but the players they replaced are knocking on the door of thw 1st team.

Elsbels, thanks for the summary and thinks its a good sign that he got a decent run out in such an important game.
Great win again and sounds like another excellent team performance.
All bodes well for the future and much appreciated
