Abdulai Bell-Baggie scored twice for Reading Reserves and club vice-captain Alex Pearce also got on the score-sheet in South Wales this afternoon.

Bell-Baggie was joined by Royals Academy team-mate Jacob Walcott in netting for the second-string in their totesport.com Combination encounter at the Gnoll.

The 18-year-old striker fired home from close range just before the break to double Reading’s lead after centre-back Pearce nodded in a bullet header from a Jake Taylor corner on eight minutes.

Bell-Baggie doubled his personal tally in the 72nd minute, again from close range, before substitute Walcott rounded-off the rout just minutes from time.

Reading Reserves: Ben Hamer, Jack Mills, John Goddard, Oliver Kelly (Harry Harding, 86), Alex Pearce, Angus Macdonald, Jake Taylor, Marek Matejovsky, Mitchell Bryant (James Rowe, 76), Abdulai Bell-Baggie, Hal Robson-Kanu (Jacob Walcott, 64).

Subs not used: Dean Santangelo, Kynan Isaac.

If I was Marek, I'd just walk out if Rodgers continues to stay here and "manage". The bloke's a buffoon with a big watch and silly jumpers who went on a "how to speak manager nonsense whilst attempting to baffle fans" course obviously. Get out now why you have the chance Marek, I wouldn't hold it against you son.

Playing Marek in the reserves with the kids and not even putting him in the first team squad, a struggling one at that. Strewth. Look forward to Brenda's new book on world class man management skills and motivational techniques.
