so you think the new owner(s) are going to strip back spending and sort themselves with a few seasons in league one? or just spend just slightly less than the previous owners to get back into the champ asap :roll:
The new owner is a known rugby fan and has apparently only really taken control to secure the safety of the ground. He owns a 25% stake in Wigan Warriors.

They're not likely to be as mental as they have been previously. He has been clear that he wants the club to be stable and sustainable.
Who owns the ground? Why don't the rugby club just buy it?

I bet the rugby club can't stand the football club :lol:

The embargo means they cannot sign players or add to the club staff.

Reading can do the f*ck they want if they turn Burton over on Saturday. Never would goals from a financially doped strike force be more welcome.

Reading have sold their 1800 allocation for their traditional inflatables day. It'll be a raucous in celebratory mood. Entirely possible there'll be more away fans than home. Every little helps.

They've been banned from taking inflatables though I believe.

That decision will leave Reading fans feeling pretty deflated i'd imagine

Indeed. Though, coincidently, Reading's final away game in 2017 was at Burton. The stewards began confiscating inflatables when the turnstiles opened, but pretty soon gave up.
