Brogue
With the proposed sale progressing towards completion, the League has extended the time allowed for Mr Dai Yongge to divest his interests in Reading FC until 17:00 on Monday 12 May 2025.

As communicated earlier this week, a sale of the Club has been agreed in principle with Redwood Holdings Limited.


This doesn't fill me with confidence...

Presumably, it must be close because that only gives 2 working days from now to completion.

I agree, the announcement on Saturday seems a bit premature.

Didn’t take long for the ‘just need a club to support’ to turn into ‘we want promotion at any cost’

Maybe stabilising the situation and paying people on time would be a good start

And with only 5 or 6 players definitely confirmed, it will take a sizeable effort to replicate 2024/25

Anyone else just a little bit twitchy at this still not having been all done and dusted??

The straw I am clinging onto is the EFL giving extensions; I would imagine that if there wasn't a realistic chance of the deal happening, they would act to expel us. So the fact they haven't done that implies they have been given cast iron assurances from both Parties.

Same. If it starts to drag too long I'll be more nervous.

Though I suspect Couhig has drafted everything to be so legally watertight that if they fcuk about they're still being forced out someway or another.

Does she still have shares in the club? What do you know? Is it likely to stop the sale?

Royals and Racers Am i being stupid but how can we be losing 1000-£1000 per month running a football club ?


STAR statement has some context

https://star-reading.org/wp-content/upl ... s_2223.pdf

That covers the current situation also


O'Dell also needs to go. He is a Howe man. Clear the lot of them out Rob

Not sure why the EFL extended again. Suspending us means nothing for the next month. May as well let the Dais know they're on borrowed time.

Retired Huang too early. This would have spread like wildfire from that account.
