FAMILIAR FACE:<br />
MIKELE<br />
LEIGERTWOOD<br />
Midfielder Mikele Leigertwood featured in successive<br />
Championship-winning seasons, playing for QPR in 2010/11<br />
before moving to <strong>Reading</strong> and matching that achievement a year<br />
later.<br />
Leigertwood, who began his career at Wimbledon, won promotion to<br />
the Premier League with Crystal Palace before moving on to Sheffield<br />
United and then <strong>Rangers</strong> in a £900,000 deal in August 2007.<br />
During his three and a half years with the Hoops, he was also deployed<br />
in central defence and at right-back, finding the net 12 times in 131<br />
games prior to joining <strong>Reading</strong>, initially on loan.<br />
The Royals signed Leigertwood on a permanent deal at the end of the<br />
2010/11 season and he went on to score the goal that sealed their<br />
promotion a year later, eventually retiring due to injury in 2014. He<br />
returned to the club two years later as Academy loan manager.<br />
