Highlights

  • Reading owner Dai Yongge's high asking price for the club is deterring a potential buyer.
  • The club's financial situation is dire, with non-payments to HMRC, embargoes and player wage issues leading to deductions and fan anger.
  • Dai's demand for a large sum is likely because he has invested heavily in the club, but should be selling for a small amount considering he has been the architect of this mess.
