馃挵 Sell Before We Dai | Money In Football
🕑 Added 2023-07-07 15:26:56 +0000 UTCIn October 202- we did a Podcast on Reading called 'The Royal Gamble' (https://www.patreon.com/posts/podcast-planet-42484453), a reference to the club's desire to reach the Premier League and why if they didn't make it into the 2020/21 they probably wouldn't make it at all.
Fast forward nearly three years and The Royals have just been relegated to League One with the taxman chasing them and a wind up order issued.
How serious is the threat to the club's future? What it's worth? Plus, The influence of Kia Joorabchian, the women's team foreced to go part-time, the mistakes that have been made that may worryingly be repeated and the fans group who are now asking Dai Yongee to #sellbeforewedai.

I always try and look on the bright side it鈥檚 admittedly difficult but we鈥檝e had several late payments of tax bills under Dai he鈥檚 always sorted it before. All of the massive contracts weighing us down are now gone save for Ejaria and the profit and sustainability charge we鈥檝e been under for 3 years is now gone too so there is a chance to start again now and do things properly. How Selles and Walcott fit into that is concerning but I do believe Mark Bowen genuinely wants to do the right thing so maybe they wouldn鈥檛 be on silly money. We鈥檝e got the spine of a good league 1 side I think but as you say we need bodies, we need to get this tax bill paid asap and do some sensible business to build a squad. I鈥檓 not against the sell before we Dai crowd at all but I鈥檓 sceptical he鈥檚 remotely moved by it
