In the evening post it was reported that Kevin Dillon says Bobby Convey's injury-plagued campaign has been the low point of Reading's incredible first season in the Premiership. The United States winger has only managed 11 starts due to a long-standing knee problem.
Hopefully Convey can get back on the pitch soon and play the football we all know he is capable. Convey is a very important player to the National teams chance in the next world cup. We need him to continue to develop as a player.

The issue of depth is one of the reasons "smaller" Premiership clubs (with the exception of Bolton) have trouble getting into Europe. Reading has had a great year but may struggle down the stretch as the fixtures pile up and the legs get weaker.
Speaking of fixtures piling up, Spurs' current schedule is more crowded than Mackler's fridge at Seder time. 5 games in 12 days, including 2 decisive cup ties. You obviously have to get the result from the Braga game to advance in UEFA, but can you sandbag an FA Cup quarter final replay at home to Chelski? I imagine if we get the result vs Braga that the supporters would stomach a less-than-stellar outing against Chelsea next Monday night. Nevertheless, given the way the draw is unfolding in the FA Cup, if we beat Chelski we're favorites to play the first game in the new Wembley (and if I'm not mistaken, a place in the FA Cup final gets you into UEFA regardless of final league placement). A lot currently on the plate for Martin Jol and the pride of North London...
While Coop is right about many things, my fridge is way more crowded than he would ever imagine.
