Reading FC head of football operations Mark Bowen had issued a message to supporters as the team heads into the final 10 games of their League One campaign.
Ruben Selles’ side currently sits in 16th spot on 39 points following their away success at Carlisle United just days after the club received a two point deduction.
The Royals have now lost six points in total this season and 18 under the ownership of Dai Yongge, who took control of the club in 2017.
Bowen issued a message to the Royals fans. He said: “Another hugely difficult week for the club, the players, the staff and also for you, our fantastic fans, has just passed.
“What never ceases to amaze me is the uncompromising support you always give us.
“I feel now is the perfect time to say a heartfelt thanks to you all, from Ruben, the players and myself.
“And with ten games to go, in order to secure our League One status, that TOGETHERNESS which I’m sure we can all feel is going to be of big significance.”
Bowen also gave an update on the takeover process and believes the sale of the club is ‘progressing’.
He continued: “The sale of the Club is progressing, with the help and expertise of Nigel Howe.
“There have been an extremely high volume of enquiries, with some primarily focused on the Club’s real estate assets – notably the Select Car Leasing Stadium and Bearwood Park.
“Whilst every proposal is considered, the primary focus for Nigel and Mr Dai is to sell all assets and the Club inclusively – so we must be patient in allowing the correct process to be followed. I know Nigel is keeping STAR regularly informed and I thank them for their support with our communication.
“This fabulous club has 152 years of history behind it, and I know that we can all play a big part in creating a successful future as well.
“So I say again, with just ten games remaining a BIG THANK YOU to ALL of our supporters.”
“Keep doing what you’re doing.”
