QUOTES FROM THE PRESS

Reading manager Steve Coppell:
"I think over the course of the last two years there have probably been 10 or 11 international breaks and on nine or 10 of those we have then been away from home. It doesn't sound as though that should make a difference but when you have players travelling all over the world it does. For us to get something out of this game psychologically was very important. Wolves and Birmingham have come here and have been beaten."
