Didcot Town 1 - 9 Reading

Honestly, hand on my heart I have been saying that Leroy Lita is the shits since I saw him demolish West Brom in the FA Cup last season, notching up a hat-trick against the perpetually grim-faced Mr United, Lord Byron Robinson. He impressed me again on Friday, scoring FOUR against, well ok, against Didcot Town, but still not bad for your first game back from a broken ankle!

Stevie Coppell's men breezed through their first test of the pre-season with Shane Long(2), Kitson(1), Doyle(1) and Gunnarson(1) all getting in on the act. New signing Seol Ki-Hyeon also made an impressive debut, although how could you not be impressive against a side that lets in NINE goals.

Fantasy Insider's view: Take this result with a small pinch of salt, Didcot aren't exactly Liverpool at Anfield, but Leroy Lita's return is something to talk about. He is an England U-21, has proved his worth in the Championship and looks, to quote a friend, a "live-wire". Reading look like they could perform like West Ham have done recently, especially with the news that Steve Sidwell is likely to stay for the rest of the season. Tougher tests will follow for Reading..., wait Bromley away followed by Rushden, hmm maybe not. Lita could score 25 in the pre-season!
