Tom Piotrowski made his first Royals appearance in 18 months last Saturday.
The forward has been continually troubled with a back injury, but played the last 10 minutes of our under 18s' game at Southampton.
His last appearance was back in March of last year, and everyone at the Club was delighted to see him back in action.
Despite not playing a single game last season, he won the Maurice Evans memorial trophy, award to our outstanding scholar, based on his hard work and dedication.
Eamonn Dolan's boys lost the game 2-0, and have now won two and lost two in this campaign.
Reading: McCarthy; Kelly, Spence, Cox, Kamdjo; Hateley, Webb, Bayley (Piotrowski 80), Frewen; Bignall, Downes (Bryant 60)
Subs: Locke, Mitchell, Baggie
