Manager – Jose Gomes
Experienced Portuguese manager Jose Gomes first started coaching in this early 20s and worked with a number of clubs in his homeland before landing a big job as assistant boss with Porto. He held the same role with Malaga and Panathinaikos, and worked in Saudi Arabia before being appointed new Reading manager in December 2018.

Pre-Match View
“It's a long, long war and now it is time to rest. Time for me to try to think and try to find the best options for the Plymouth game. Because the truth is my players are tired.” Jose Gomes
