Reading FC fans protest against owner before game

Hundreds of Reading FC fans staged a protest against the club's owner, Dai Yongge.

Supporters marched from Reading town centre to the Select Car Leasing Stadium ahead of the club's match against Portsmouth on Saturday.

They want the Chinese tycoon to sell the club after late salary payments led to the team being docked points.

Protesters included former Reading striker Dave Kitson and MPs Matt Rodda and James Sunderland.

Mr Dai is facing a football misconduct charge for failing to deposit sufficient funds for the club's wages.

The 大象传媒's Lewis Coombes was at the protest - he spoke to some of the marching fans.
