Eamonn Dolan's Royals made it back to back Academy wins with a 1-0 victory over Coventry City.

Centre half Jack Mills bagged the only goal of the game, powering home a header ten minutes after the break to chalk up a season double over the Sky Blues.

Oliver Kelly came close to doubling the lead moments later as he drew a smart save from City 'keeper Michael Quirke, and any hope of a Coventry comeback was dashed as midfielder Suleiman Leluu received his marching orders in the final ten minutes.
