Really? Earlier this week they'd got 300k to finish their ground and hope to be in it by christmas? Whats changed?
Funding in Place
The club are delighted to advise that the £300,000 funding that had been required to progress the ground to the level necessary to host Vanarama Conference South football is now in place.
As a result, works will commence shortly with a view to finally returning home, with the aim to be back at Beaconsfield Road by Christmas 2015.
The club have agreed terms with Maidenhead United for a further short spell of ground sharing until our own ground has been approved for the grading necessary.

They've "aimed to be back by Christmas" for a few seasons now. The ground is an empty shell with varying estimates of how much is required to fit it out. They're forever looking for the capital investment required to make it habitable

Reading Town FC are in all kinds of bother and the situation is so bad that they may cease to exist.
Last summer the Battersea and Wandsworth Trades Union Council took a controlling interest in the club and secured sponsorship with the GMB who through the Southern Region provide the Chairman and Chief Executive of the club.
There has been a problem paying players their expenses (not wages) and apparently this was because the players were not submitting their expenses in a timely and correct manner. This was believed to have been rectified by the players understanding and agreeing to the process and due expenses were to be paid. However, the promised payments (dating back to December) had not be paid at the beginning of this month and therefore the majority of the players have walked out of the club and that was after the manager quit earlier in the year. Since this time the club have failed to fulfil a couple of fixtures (the fact that Hellenic League have made a massive mistake in rescheduling the games rather than awarding points to the opponents is another discussion) and have now managed to scrape a team together to complete the remaining league fixtures but have withdrawn from the Semi-Final of the Aldershot Senior Cup where they were due to play Camberley.
It has also been announced that despite some of the players now being paid their expenses back, most of them will not play for Reading Town FC. Additionally the Caretaker Manager will leave at the end of the season alongside the Secretary.
The rumour mill has suggested that members of the BWTUC were not overly keen in getting involved in the first place.

Christof Slough have withdrawn their appeal against the decision to replay the abandoned match against Banbury Utd, as it's taken so long to get to this point (the original game was abandoned in October) that they don't want the Southern League relegation decided by an appeal - better to have a match to decide it instead (hopefully Slough lose to Frome on Saturday to keep it interesting, then stuff the Oxfordshire ruffians on Tuesday).

I can understand the principle, but hope that it does not set a precedent for other matches to be influenced/abandoned/replayed because of some scrote's actions (apparently/allegedly, the scrote that launched a bottle at the ref is still attending matches)...
Anyway, if anyone fancies a feast of football/niggling aggro in Banbury on Tuesday, see you there...
