He told the official website, "Full-back is not a hot-spot for us at the moment - we are well-covered with a number of players able to play there. Scott obviously has promise and I liked what I saw, but big Daniel Jones is doing well enough to keep hold of the shirt at the moment. He may as well play in Reading's reserves as opposed to ours and I was honest with him about that. I could not guarantee him first-team football and the departure has freed up some room on the wage bill, which we may need."
