Losing a 2-0 half-time lead. They've definitely got the DNA of a Reading team.

[Royals and Racers]

Next up for the U 21’s is a PL 2 home match against Leicester on Monday January 15th. The match is at Bearwood Ko 7pm.
Royals lie 8th with 17 points from the 10 matches played with Leicester 21st with 9 points from the same number of games as the Royals.
Any season ticket holder wanting to go will have to ring the ticket office and have to pay £5 for the privilege of standing on a grass bank !!

U 18’s lost 3-0 away to Arsenal today in PL U 18 league.

Thanks for posting this - hadn't realised that it had been moved to Bearwood from Aldershot due to Women's cup match there on Sunday

Mine was the No 1 ticket sold Think they have sold at least 6.
I do know they have a deadline for buying but as they don’t promote the Bearwood games, for all i know it might have already passed.( they don’t promote it because they don’t want punters to attend) and are forced to by the league rules.

Mola
Rushesha
McIntyre
Bindon
Akande
Savage
Ehibhatiomhan
Wellens
Vickers

Very strong side, which makes sense due to us not completing a league game in two weeks. It could well be our starting XI come February.

I'm guessing it's something like:

CBC
Yiadom - Bindon - McIntyre - Mola
Rushesha - Savage
Akande - Vickers - Wellens
Ehib

Subs: Collins; Abrefa ( ); Craig; Clarke; Carson

Great to see CBC back, as well as Abrefa on the bench.

Yes, very good to see CBC return, hope Abrefa can get some minutes under him. Would rather Carson play than Mola

[Hound]

Decent side. Be interesting to see how they get on. Nice to see Abrefa back

[blythspartan]

Possibly, minus Savage this is our first team post January.

[Royals and Racers]

H-T 0-0
Abrefa on for Yiadom for 2nd half.
0-1 67mins terrible defending !!
1-1 74 mins Bindon
2-1 87 mins Vickers
F-T 2-1 only really started to play in the last 15 mins. Royals up to 6th.

Next up for the U 21’s is this Friday 19th with a match at the EBB stadium Aldershot against Sheffield Utd in the PL cup KO 7pm. The Royals with this match and an away game against West Brom to play in group B have already no chance of reaching the QF’s.

‘The secret scout’ reports that Southampton have signed Reading U 16 academy player Cameron Frederick. They go on to say that there will be more out goings from the RFC academy this year.

Not ideal, but being brutally honest it's a good way to bring cash in now without harming the first team. The lost talent will either be the next owner's problem or be irrelevant when we're extinct.

I was about to say it wouldn't bring in much - but if we lost a 16-year-old who has been with us since they were nine, that's potentially £154k. Or if he's been with us since 12, that's £145k.

As long as it isn't too many in total or from a particular year group, it is a sensible way to bring in funds. Only a relatively small number if Academy players will ever play for the first team so getting monet in for some who are years away from even challenging makes sense.
