Reading heading for intetesting times

[studio150]

A report in the Telegraph saying that even if Reading win play offs they will be blocked from being promoted toPL.
This is due to chinese take over of club. While EFL have agreed ok subject to conditions. PL not happy as same Chinese that were turned down to buy Hull and PL will not sanction
Maybe the season will extend to the Courts.

I am sick to death of clubs being sold to "know nothing" owners, whatever nationality
Swindon Coventry Blackburn Forest and on and on.
Hard to feel sorry for Reading fans, but I kind of do. Almost

They probably thought they were buying a library.

Reading. That seething metropolis that is so renown throughout the world that even in deepest China, business people are just queuing up to invest in its glorious football team .....

Does this mean they've given up fighting butterflies?

Isn't there something going on with the land around their ground,and development of it?

I believe the current owners are keeping hold of all the land around the stadium, so they will profit from any redevelopment. New owners will just get the club and stadium

 

[Lindfield by the Pond]

We shall fight for the glory of Reading.................

Already plush homes built and being built on the land.....It's certainly not about the football for those lot that's for sure .....

Oooooh that has swung it for me. I'm on my way etc.

Here's some for you ready and waiting and the tip of the iceberg

 

[crookie]

Again, makes it realise how lucky we are. Plenty of clubs being used as vehicles/playthings/development opportunities by far-east entities who will never had heard of them for most of their lives

Reading. That seething metropolis where no one with any taste would choose to live, let alone buy a house

Dreamy. How much?

Don't forget the stunning views of the M4

 

[Soulman]

Seeing as the Chinese are big in steel, they probably thought they were buying Leading..........

 

[perseus]

Sell a biscuit to every Chinaman in China for 5 pence is £277 million and rising.

You know the weekend's result was bad when despite this huge news for the club, I still can't stop thinking about the first half on Saturday.

I keep having shell-shock style flashbacks

To be fair, I don't think it will be a problem for you this season!
