McD and Nige now having a kiss and a cuddle. Overheard Brian putting in a £5m bid for Kuhl. Crosby told him where to stick his dirty arab money.

Leeds playing at a very high tempo but we're doing a decent job on the ball thus far.

Sammy Fridge has a Delap like throw.

1-0! Cardwell scores after a fantastic team move. Think it was Kelly who put the final ball through, but gr8 work by Sammy F in the build up. The Icelander also put a glorious ball through 5 minutes earlier but Stacey's touch was too heavy.

This guy can play.

1-1. Sloppy Hyam pass gifts them an equaliser that they don't really deserve. Shame as he'd been playing very well.

The Leeds philosophy of kick anyone more skillful than you seems to have been passed down to their academy. We're getting kicked all over the park.

No protection from the ref?

No they're just the clever little fouls as our boys get them turned that rarely get picked up on. The type you see all the time in the Champ.

Tariqe Fosu missed a glorious chance just before the break. Gr8 work again from Fridge, Kelly and Kuhl, but he blazed over from 10 yards. 1-1 ht.

Decent enough half of football. Leeds are pressing us high and hard which is making it difficult, but hopefully they'll tire as the game progresses.

1-2 Fosu makes amends for the miss then

Yep, scrappy goal from a mega Sammi throw.

Leeds fans showed their class and booed while the lads were celebrating.

Bit like when the Reading fans booed the Watford under 16's whilst they were celebrating a couple of years ago.

3-1. Another Fridge throw causes more chaos and Kelly buries a half volley from 18 yards. Lovely. 2 mins before that Fosu smashed it against the bar after another slick midfield move.

You ever thought about running the Reading FC twitter page?

Cardwell misses an absolute sitter after good work down the left by McClennan and Kelly. Leeds players getting frustrated and putting in some reckless tackles, could be an injury or 2 before the end.

W-R ,you do realise that you are starting to sound like somebody's mum at a kids' game shouting at the ref because somebody just tackled their little darling a teensy-weesy bit strongly?
