Still have a few left and would love to get them used up. RT’s welcome as the deadline to use them is 8am tomorrow 👍 #readingfc

ANALYSIS: A sign of the times at #ReadingFC ?

For Alex, one particularly rundown, out-of-date sign is a visible metaphor for the state that the club has been allowed to degrade to under the stewardship of Dai Yongge.

Safe ❤️ amazing efforts from all involved at the football club. Let’s now see what the takeover brings 🤞

🚨 BONUS POD KLAXON: Dropping soon: a conversation with Tim Kilpatrick.

Hear about how Ruben influenced the season ticket campaign and more..

#readingfc

This game is up there with the great Reading 'What ifs?' If Forster doesn't get injured I think we win, and probably beat Sheff Utd as well. However, that means no Coppell, Pardew stays and who knows what next.

What a result to wake up too. Love this bloody club, even when it’s doing its very best to make my life miserable 😂 Huge credit to Ruben, other staff and the squad. Can’t fully relax yet but that’s a big step ❤️

Southampton 1-3 Reading 🥹

Nothing much I can add on the takeover talk except to say that this whole ordeal has shown the true strength of this club's fanbase and why someone should WANT to own it. Feel very proud to be one tiny part of this club. Keep the faith folks!

🎧 In a special episode of the podcast, Ben Thomas and Ross Webber sat down with #ReadingFC first-team coach James Oliver-Pearce.

Reading fans protested outside Wycombe's stadium in response to news that the club's owner Dai Yongge is selling their training ground to their League One rivals 🔵⚪

1.⁠ ⁠We’re excited as everyone else, but we’ve been burned before.

2.⁠ ⁠⁠We have been lied to before - remember no players sold in January?

3.⁠ ⁠⁠There is also a pattern of good news being released when fan feeling is at its highest…and when something awful has just…

What a brilliant piece from The Tilehurst End and a stark reminder of how quickly a football club can be absolutely wrecked when it’s allowed to fall into wrong hands.

Below is from Club1871:

Hey all, this is a message from @Club1871. Some of you who thought we should be disbanded may have got your wish as our account has been locked!!

We just wanted to say, please stay in the stands tomorrow. We know emotions are running hight, but these…

What on earth?! How is Dai Yongee unable to get anywhere with selling the club; yet is wrapping up a deal to sell the club's training facility in no time at all? Dreadful.

Reaction to statements from #readingfc and #WycombeWanderers

Football's ownership problem has reached a new low.

Emotions are running sky high, and I’m sure some fans are saying things they may well regret later. Football is about family and friends, thus the thought of losing that which connects us to so many is something that’s so hard to articulate. Look after each other everyone ❤️

Financial mismanagement & incompetence have led to Reading selling their training ground to generate cash to pay payroll & tax bills. It shows what happens when wealthy individual buy clubs as executive toys & then discard when bored. A football club is so much more than this.

This is all I have to say as a Wycombe fan today 👇 👇 #readingfc #wwfc
