Reading win two on the spin to leave themselves sitting just outside of the playoff spots: firmly in nosebleed territory.
Ben and Ross are up late to review some of the key contributors to the victories, and discuss who should start against Bristol Rovers.
Ross is in England for a few matches after a brief stop at Shamrock Rovers (Noel Hunt’s old stomping grounds), and Ben learns midway through the pod that the show is now available in video format on TTE’s Youtube channel.
