Reading 3-1 Peterborough United: The Show Goes On

A wonderful team goal, a Harvey Knibbs close-range finish and a cherry on top from Charlie Savage earned the Royals a big win against a dangerous Posh side on Reading’s return from the international break.

Matchdays have long since taken on an extra, more poignant meaning in these parts. Not merely the 90 minutes of entertainment we look forward to as escapism from our daily lives, now they’re our refuge from the grim, relentless reality of Reading Football Club itself.

Today’s game against Peterborough United was no different.
