Love him or hate him, trust him or not but Huang Kad has just posted a picture of a corner flag.

One of those situations where you don't trust the account but know it has been right on more than one occasion (wrong on others) and hope this is one more occasion where it is right.

I don't know about you lot, but I'm starting to think that Dai Yongge isn't a very good businessman.

Supporting Reading hasn't been normal for about 5 years, but even by the standards of this season, the past 5 days or so has to go down as one of the bonkers weeks.

Couhig suggesting on Twitter this was his plan all along which is either A-grade copium or some top tier 4D chess

I think none of this would have been public knowledge without the Athletic's article. Perhaps they were at relatively early stages. Whoever leaked threw a massive spanner in the works.

Winston Biscuit If the planning permission issue is pretty watertight and it precludes anyone but us using it, then the purchasers have the upper hand in negotiations
If that kind of planning permission caveat exists, then hats off to Wokingham Council.
Would be handy if the same applied to the Madejski Stadium, but it has that Community Asset order so that should ensure it continues as a sporting venue, hopefully for Reading FC.
Maybe something to consider for the future if the club ever seeks planning permission to extend or anything

I suspect (and it's only supposition) the planning permission was made personal to Reading so that the council can keep a tight control of how the facilities are used. I'd be surprised if they objected to transferring it to Wycombe - or even to allowing both clubs to share (although there may still be a delay before the permissions could be transferred). Rather, I suspect it's to stop somebody buying the facilities and trying to get their maximum commercial potential by putting on events, letting the facilities to over users, perhaps opening parts up as a private sports club... Of course, that's exactly what might put off Wycombe's third-party investor from being interested in buying Bearwood.

Typical that he'll be right predicting bad news last week and wrong predicting good news this week.

I think its decent account with high accuracy, but do worry he has gone early with the corner flag.... In Huang we trust!

I tend to only go on Twitter when something is referenced on here. It's a cesspool of idiocy.

I was in a few RFC Facebook groups but left them all because they're largely occupied by insufferably thick twats and my feed was being swamped with nonsense.

Stranded It shouldn't block any sale of the club/stadium to any potential owner as the club don't own the training ground any more due to Dai's shiftiness, so club is just a name.

Now Dai could try and throw that in and muck things up with the alleged deal but if this is all as people expect, Dai has a very weak hand now with the training ground.

He can only sell it to someone wanting to be RFC's landlord and this planning permission means that the club can be pretty tough when it comes to any rental agreement etc as they know the owner can't simply go and offer it to Wycombe or anyone else.

Of course, he could get in a strop and decide to mothball the whole thing but we are all pretty much expecting that anyway.


Top analysis.
Dai transferred Bearwood away from the club, thinking £££££££££££££ :D :D :D :D :D :D
Dai finds out only RFC can use it :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:
There just aren't enough :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

But I thought Dai and Pang wouldn't let emotions cloud business decisions?

When has anyone ever said that?
