Reading

I'd agree that there should be a ban of homes fans for 3 games? Its difficult isn't it for fans, how do they draw attention to the issue that makes a noise? Perhaps the most useful thing would be to boycott home games?

It does make the EFL look rather weak and unable to exercise control on who takes ownership of these clubs, the "fit and proper" person test seems useless, the Reading owner has had similar issues at other clubs abroad he has either owns or may still own, so its not as if the evidence of what was likely to happen. But then if one looks at "our" Mel, there was nothing to suggest he might bring the club to its knees.

At the root of all this of course is fans (inc some on this Forum) who demand money is spent on players to get their club success!!

Not sure who, on this forum, is ‘demanding money is spent on players to get their club success’...however it seems a tad harsh to blame fans as the ‘route of all this’.
Probably fair to criticise those who caused the abandonment last Saturday, but those fans at Reading will have contributed in excess of £5m to Reading FC by the end of the season. Likewise at Derby regular fans are likely to have paid around £12.5m by the end of the season...is it unreasonable that such commitment should lead to reasonable levels of expectation?
