- Caroline Parker from the 'Sell Before We Dai Campaign', speaks to Mark Saggers on TalkTV about why 1,000 Reading fans invaded the pitch to protest against Dai Yongge's ownership.
Reading’s plight is an example of why a stringent owners’ and directors’ test is imperative under a new football regulation bill, according to Fair Game chief executive Niall Couper.
Saturday’s Sky Bet League One match against Port Vale was abandoned after approximately 1,000 home supporters invaded the pitch in what one fan group have promised is the start of protests against owner Dai Yongge.
The club have been hit with a series of points deductions and financial penalties under the Chinese businessman’s stewardship and following Championship relegation after being docked six points they are 21st in League One having been stripped of four this season.
“Football belongs to the fans, but it shouldn’t be down to them to take action,” said Couper, whose organisation work to find long-term solutions to issues like protecting the heritage of clubs.
“Reading FC fans have, for years, paid the price of mismanagement of the club. The mismanagement has now put the club’s future at severe risk.

At what point are we going to have a fit and proper persons test for the people who run the EFL!
SOLIDARITY. BROTHERS AND SISTERS FROM an Aldershot/QPR fan🤘
From a vale fan, we are with you! We've been where you are and totally stand with you. This can't be allowed to keep happening!
I’ve been watching Reading spiral down the leagues it’s obvious something is really wrong there. Used to be a very well run club
I'm supporter of Reading fc....they run threw my blood.... WE need all supporter from every supporter...because it could be your club run like a business...Not a community football club
I support one of Readings old rivals but I really hope they can get this sorted . My team has had a succesion of crooks owning the club .... there seems to be no way of stopping them.
This shows why i have become so dissolusioned with football today , a game I've loved for over 40 years .
We had all this at Leyton Orient and went to Blackpool for what looked like being our last ever game. Both sets of fans united with our message to the woefully weak EFL then and nothing has changed with them. The plane banner said it all **** the EFL
Ive never seen a successful Chinese owner that's all i gotta say 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Carolinne well done for the Lightening of what’s going on in Reading Fc , But we supporters we know at the end of DAI STOM THEY WILL BE A RAINBOW 🌈 COME ON UUUR’S
Used to watch reading at Elm Park BITD , the club & the town has gone to pot
Football ownership is a mix of middle eastern monarchy, used car salesmen, and a few decent owners. Seems like anyone with cash in the bank and an ego equivalent to Cicero to own and run futball teams into the ditch. Bery, Yeovil, Birmingham, Southend, Scunthorpe, etc etc etc.
Just found out there stadium ain’t call the Madejski anymore always liked that stadium name.
if we have to play behind close doors why dont they the fans in for free
This is a very confusing comment, can you explain exactly what you mean?
Their owner is no fit or proper person
That's the same thing the glazers are doing at United. They don't care.
Get a grip it’s nothing like the same thing ffs.
These Reading fans geered and celebrated and sang songs about Portsmouth going out of business. Now they are in the same situation. Boo hoo.
The same fans that was happy to take Dai when he was pumping money on transfers and a state of the art training ground . The hypocrisy is very laughable
Of course. you’d back, support and be happy with an owner who is investing in the club - wouldn’t you ?
@dalessandrelli which one is it ? Either you are happy with the owner or you aren't.
@@Matt-pn1ce because money isnt a problem when its being spent
im sure youd love it if your club had hmrc up its arse. the hypocrisy is crazy. in the same situation youd be crying like a lil bitch
Did you watch the video?
Someone who hasn't a clue making a stupid point.
