Town manager Joe Royle has announced his squad for Saturday's opening game of the season at home to Reading. New signings Drissa Diallo, Kelvin Davis and Georges Santos will all make their Town debuts.

Royle has no injury worries other than long-term absentee John McGreal, so this 16 is currently his strongest available selection.

There is no place for unwanted keeper Andy Marshall, Lewis Price is Town's sub stopper.

Reading are also without injury and are likely to include new signings Shaun Goater and Scott Murray in their line-up.

Town: Bowditch, D Bent, M Bent, Couñago, Davis, Diallo, Magilton, Makin, Miller, Naylor, Price, Reuser, Richards, Santos, Wilnis and Wright.
