Millwall boss Ian Holloway has reassured Byron Webster he will get another chance in the first team.

The defender, a summer signing from Yeovil Town, was taken off just 26 minutes into his first start for the Lions as they slipped to a 3-2 defeat at Reading on Tuesday night.

Webster gave away a penalty which put Millwall 2-0 down before he was replaced by winger Martyn Woolford as Holloway made a tactical reshuffle.

Holloway said: "It was purely a tactical change that we made, nothing at all to do with Webby's performance.

"Of course he was disappointed but he was so professional about it and I said that afterwards.

"He took it absolutely brilliantly and that's the sort of attitude that we need. I have a lot of respect for him and his chances will come."
