THE reported sale of Reading’s training ground to Wycombe shows the club is “firmly on life support,” a supporters’ group has said.

The Royals issued a statement on Sunday, saying Dai Yongge was “open” to the idea of selling Bearwood in order to secure sufficient funding to keep the club running until new ownership can be found.

It has now been reported that their League One rivals Wycombe have reached an agreement to buy Bearwood, and that the agreement has led to a consortium which had been interested in buying Reading walking away.
