Match Report	Reading YMCA Rapids 0 Bell & Bottle 4
	Reading YMCA Rapids' winless run extended to 4 games as they suffered a comprehensive 4-0 defeat to Bell & Bottle. Apart from a 15 minute spell at the end of the 1st half, the Rapids were never really in the game and they found themselves 2-0 down at half-time. The Rapids missed a chance to pull a goal back when substitute Mark Lemm shot straight at the keeper with 20 minutes remaining and it proved costly as Bottle scored 2 further goals to complete the scoring. Rapids boss Paul O'Boyle said "We were never really in this game and can have no complaints about the result. We're in a bit of a rut at the moment but we've had a tough start to the season and our next couple of games are really important as we badly need a win."
