The Royals caretaker manager Scott Marshall is carrying on despite uncertainty.

As Marshall approaches his third game in charge of Reading FC, the club appear no clearer to appointing a permanent replacement for Paul Clement, who was sacked earlier this month.

"We'll just continue and do the job we're doing at the moment," Marshall told 大象传媒 Radio Berkshire's Jack Winstanley. "I'm enjoying working with the group and working with the players.

"It's obviously a really busy period, and all the players need a good body of work in them going into that period."

And Marshall knows just how difficult a match it will prove to be against promotion chasing Middlesbrough.

"There's a lot of good players in the squad, they've got an experienced manager.

"We're expecting a really tough game at the weekend."
