For various reasons I've missed a few games recently, thought about staying away yesterday as when I'd not been to games we'd always won, so it was with nervous apprehension as Leicester created many chances early on and looked by far the better side , but our class up front shone through with Longy doing brilliant for our first goal for Kebe , who aside from not getting a deserved hat trick showed blistering pace that made the Leicester defenders look like they had lead boots on as they floundered in his wake .All in a solid performance with clinical counter attacks they looked more like an away performance than at home . All players gave their all and looked well up for it as we enter the last four games .

Can we do it, automatic, of course we could, but I've a feeling all those draws earlier will cost us and we'll finish a point or two short, but play offs are assured. Which means here we go again, as our play offs record is woeful , with many still unable to forget the the Wembley and Cardiff debacles . Will it be third time lucky ? Let's hope not and we do it automatically but if it is to be the play offs let's keep all crossed . There's less pressure on the team than before , we have amazing form , but the caution is we've not peaked a game or two early . In Long , Kebe and arguably McAnuff we have match winners plus the amazing lucky charm in Leigertwood . What ever is sure it's going to be a very excitingend to the season and who'd have thought that back in January ?

Reading continued their relentless promotion charge by easing past play-off chasing Leicester to record a ninth [are you sure BBC??] consecutive Championship victory. Two goals in three first-half minutes put the hosts in control and Leicester rarely looked like fighting back. Jimmy Kebe swept the Royals ahead on 19 minutes from Shane Long's cross and Jobi McAnuff's low shot made it 2-0. Noel Hunt steered in a third after the break and although Andy King fired home, the result was never in doubt. Reading, who were in the bottom half of the table in February, are now just three points adrift of second-placed Cardiff. Leicester, meanwhile, are five points shy of the top six with four games left after an untimely run of two wins in 10 games. Diomansy Kamara, Kyle Naughton and Yakubu all tried their luck from long range in the opening 15 minutes but failed to worry home goalkeeper Alex McCarthy.

The Royals took the lead when Long held off two challenges before crossing from the left side of the area for Kebe to finish from close range. Kebe turned provider for the second goal two minutes later, setting up McAnuff, who twisted and turned on the edge of the box before beating keeper Chris Weale with a low shot into the bottom right corner. City then had their best spell and King forced McCarthy to save with his feet before Yakubu headed over the crossbar. McCarthy also tipped another header from Sol Bamba round a post following a Richie Wellens corner. But the hosts got on top after the interval and Kebe went close with a couple of efforts from the edge of the box before Reading went 3-0 up in the 67th minute when, after more work by Kebe, Hunt shot home from 12 yards. Yakubu somehow headed over from six yards out before King's late strike from the Nigerian's pass completed the scoring.
