Reading legend among strong crowd enjoying cup victory over Marlow

Reading legend Ady Williams was among the 600+ strong crowd at Bottom Meadow, Sandhurst, to witness the Royals lift the Berks and Bucks Senior Cup.

Noel Hunt's Under-21s beat Marlow 2-1, a repeat of the first-ever final in 1879, with goals from Jeremiah Okine-Peters and Adrian Akande.

This is the second Senior Cup title since 2022, with Reading beating Ascot United 4-0 in Hunt's debut campaign in charge.

Williams, a Bracknell native, rose through the youth ranks to make over 300 appearances for his boyhood team over two spells.

He was joined by former teammate, and Academy chief, Michael Gilkes.

Director of Recruitment, Brian Carey, was also present at the SB Stadium.

The Royals host Sunderland on Monday in the semi-final of the PL2 play-offs, with free entry at the SCL Stadium.
