    Interesting article in the Mail today, all not what it may seem at Reading. There are some parallels with us in that there is a housing development in the owner's sights and promises that seem to have been broken, sounds familiar? Apparently money from future parachute payments was 'sold' for a fraction of it's value.

    It just makes you wonder what sort of deals have put us into a seemingly cash-starved situation and the real motives of the owners, are we really going to be happy just being a bottom-half Championship team after quarter of a billion quid wasted? Worrying times for many football clubs targeted by sometimes less-than-pristine foreign owners...

    Reading is just too far away from the coast to be anything like Portsmouth, so I would say no...

    It could happen, that's why I pointed out some of the similarities. They only let us know the minimum, plenty of unanswered questions about so many things they're involved with...
