D'ATH MAKES GLOVERS SWITCH

Yeovil have signed Reading teenager Lawson D'Ath on a one-month loan deal.

The 19-year-old midfielder made his first-team debut for the Royals last month when he came off the bench in the FA Cup defeat to Stevenage.

After that game, D'Ath told Reading's official website: "I'd say I'm a box-to-box midfielder, I've been known for playing the attacking role too with the youth team but in the end I think I'll be a box-to-box midfielder.

"I'd be happy to go on loan, but if the gaffer wanted me here then that's fine too."

D'Ath, who progressed through the youth ranks at Reading, signed his first professional contract in 2009 and scored more than 20 goals in the Under-18 and reserve sides last season.

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.
