Key figures

Reading keeps its 4 matches with only one goal conceded at most running (since 14/03/2009).

Only back at the time of Roland Nilsson head of Coventry (10/09/2001-16/04/2002), you can see a manager go over Chris Coleman with 28% of clean sheets in Championship (35%).

No Reading manager (with more than 30 matches on the bench) before Steve Coppell has reached 1.52 goals scored per game in Championship.
