There's no way it's paid back in full

It's either been transferred or lifted because he's started repaying, would be my guess.

The club, according to the Chronicle, are insisting the debt concerned has been “cleared”.

Given the club's statement says nothing of the sort and local jornalism is shit, I'm not buying.

"Cleared" as in no longer an obstruction to the club. I'm not interested in any other detail.

Mystery buyer pays off the Chinese Government getting them of Dai's back; buys RFC, incl the Stadium and Training ground off Dai for £1.

The question is, of course, who is the mystery buyer.

Until that question is answered, its difficult to get too excited, as it might mean going from one sh1tshow to another.

But just what a piece of work Dai is, not informing a prospective buyer NOR the EFL of the fact that there was a £55M charge against the stadium.....he is an absolute crook, and a stupid one at that!

That could be classed as libel, if the allegations were made against someone who wasn't an absolute crook, and a stupid one at that. I'm no lawyer, but I'd say you were in the clear.

He would need to attend court Forbes, and my highly paid lawyers would be demanding the hearing was held in Reading........... :twisted: :twisted:

In fact, it's difficult to get excited until someone actually buys the club ...

Googled the name and this came up: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Taylor_(comedian)

Feels appropriate given the situation.

No dinner for him if he has bad intentions, we might need to look for a new training ground though. but I`d trade that in a heartbeat to what we have now.

Everyone's favourite ITK, Huang Kad, says -

Just as an FYI #readingfc fans, Paul Taylor knows Dai very well, they crossed paths when Paul was associated with China delta export limited. This is still some way off being a done deal. He hasn’t even been put forward to the efl yet.

Isn't there a covenant on the training ground land around usage?
