The Royals boss says he's pleased with how well his first season has gone so far in Berkshire.

A 1-0 win over Wigan on Saturday saw Reading FC confirm their place in the Championship play-offs.

"I am very proud," he told Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio Berkshire's Tim Dellor. "It's not all about the players of course.

"It's also the other people around the team, the physios, the conditional trainers, my staff, and how we work together."

He also was full of praise for player of the season Ali Al-Habsi.

"Ali's done great for us, made great saves, very important saves.

"I think how he's been developing even with his age...he deserves it."
