Reading Bench 8 minutes

[Melton Fox]

Anybody else see this?

After 8 minutes somebody came off the Reading bench and headed towards the North Stand, approached a young Ballboy and tried to steal the ball off him to take it back to the bench. The Ballboy wouldn't give it to him and a "Rapid Response" orange jacket geezer had to intervene. This resulted in an altercation between the rapid response geezer and the Reading bloke. Ultimately resulting in the 4th official having to break it up.

Shed any light?, Anybody else see it?

Dunno but for some reason the ref told them to take all the balls in and we just carried on with one that held the game up.

The reason for this might be that every time they had a throwin or corner the ball boys would take there time in giving the ball back.Then as soon as we got one a spare ball appeared.Hope this has shed some light on it for you.

No, this was after only 8 minutes and they wanted the balls on the bench. I believe they then requested to use a single ball
