    Sad news and can certainly understand the discontent and anger of their fans. Is it yet another indictment against Chinese ownership? Maybe such a comment might be seen as racist by some given that there are plenty of other foreign owners as well as domestic ones who have failed their clubs but the reputation of Chinese owners certainly isn't good. Doubtless the recent financial troubles and deflation issues in China have played their part.

    One of my most hated away grounds is Reading, you could drown in your own p I s s waiting to get to the loo and the concourse is hideous as is the wait to get off their car park.

    A nonentity of a club for me, a small club who had a rich owner who built a ground that was too big for them.

    I feel sorry for their core support of 10,000 but they are not a very attractive proposition as a purchase.
