Boss waiting on injuries

Reading manager Brian McDermott is hoping to have a near to full strength squad at his disposal by the time his side travel to Wycombe this weekend. Julian Kelly was forced off with a thigh problem in the first half of Tuesday's 1-0 friendly defeat to 10-man NK Celje, with Noel Hunt and Grzegorz Rasiak are closing in on a return from their respective injuries. "I think he (Kelly) has a thigh problem, I don't know how long he will be, but he's upset," he told the club's official website. "He feels it's one thing after another but these things happen in football and you have to deal with that, it's part and parcel of the job. "In terms of the other lads, Noel and Grzegorz should be back soon and we'll have a nearly fully fit squad for the Wycombe game, where we'll go for the right result and right performance."
