Highlights

  • Reading FC has faced significant financial difficulties in the past 18 months, leading to potential administration and a winding up order.
  • The team's relegation to the third tier for the first time in two decades has added to the chaos, with a four-point deduction complicating matters further.
  • Many of the new signings have short-term contracts, and the departure of longer-serving players next summer leaves the squad in a precarious situation for the future.
