Jason Roberts: 'Massive impact'

Assistant manager Nigel Gibbs could not be happier with Reading's activity during the January transfer window.

The Royals brought in Jason Roberts, Tomasz Cywka, Matthew Connolly and Karl Sheppard as well as agreeing new contracts with Jimmy Kebe, Alex McCarthy and Mikkel Andersen over the course of the last month.

And Gibbs feels the Berkshire side are now in a terrific position to push for promotion from the npower Championship.

He told the club's official website: "We've made additions to the squad and signed new contracts with players so we were delighted.

"The window has closed now and we can all get on with the most important thing, which is winning games.

"Jimmy signed and we've all see how important he is for us, that was massive. Jason Roberts made a massive impact in his first game, the crowd were lifted and the players were boosted as well."

here has only been 3 players who made me hold my breath in dread when they picked the ball up anywhere near our penalty area...in their prime Scholes and Giggs... and always Drogba. Awesome player who on his day was the best striker in the world in my opinion.

remember him scoring a 25-yarder, either the season just gone or the one before, against Bolton at the Reebok. I've never seen a ball hit that hard before in my entire life. You could almost feel the shockwave from his foot contacting it 40 yards away in the stands. Didier Droga. You might not have loved him, but you just had to be in awe of him.

den Hazard, def. - 1) that girl in a club who makes eyes at you all night, who allows you to buy her a drink and walk her home arm in arm, who then gives you a suggestive kiss on her doorstep before declaring how tired she is and how she has to be up early the next day. 2) A cock tease.
