Some highlights from some of our recent U21 matches:
West Brom (lost 2-1 away): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kTcBJ0XDkYQ
Fulham (lost 5-1 home): https://www.fulhamfc.com/videos/0c8bf51 ... 0939206b68
Chelsea (lost 4-1 away): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnHGsskSy64

And U18s:
Fulham (lost 1-0 home): https://www.fulhamfc.com/videos/b777b4d ... 8cd82a5a0f

Warnings with the Fulham ones: there's annoying music over it; and whoever does the filming at Bearwood needs to learn how to zoom in.

Cannot get Royals line-up - Reading FC media have completely ignored the fact that it was being played tonight. Certainly could not expect them to follow the match but not to post the line-up is in my view appalling !!
Group A is looking good
1st Reading P 3 points 9 GD + 6
2nd Bournemouth P 2 points 3 GD + 2
3rd Hull P 3 points 3 GD — 1
4th Birmingham P 2 points 0 GD —7

The coverage of our development sides has been shocking - no social media updates; no match highlights; etc. even when the game has been played at home.

Harrison Rhone (1)
Emmanuel Osho (2) - Phillip Duah (5; captain) - Tyler Sackey (6) - John Ryan (3)
Shay Spencer (4) - Luke Howard (8)
Jeremiah Okine-Peters (7) - David Hicks (10) - Sean Patton (11)
