McLeish: we must take the game to them
"We have to make St Andrews a difficult place for teams to come to.
"We will be preparing the players for a very important game. We want the tempo up high, we want the fans behind us, we want to have a full house.
"I am really excited and we have to take the game to Reading, even though we know they are a good team."
