From conceding after 17 seconds to capitulating in the second half, it was another horror show from Reading as they lost 4-0 to Nottingham Forest on Saturday afternoon. Nothing is changing and we’re left to berate the same mistakes again and again.
Olly Allen is joined by Ben Thomas on this week’s podcast to dissect the defeat at the City Ground, debate Reading’s survival chances and look ahead to a difficult week with games against Bournemouth and Blackburn Rovers to come before the international break.

We’re delighted to be joined once again by football finance expert Kieran Maguire, host of the Price of Football podcast and author of the book of the same name, to go through Reading’s latest set of financial accounts.
We dive into the reasons for Reading’s £36million loss in 2020-21, the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, the now infamous wages to turnover ratio and the continuation of Dai Yongge’s financial backing. Plus, Kieran gives his view on reports that Barnsley have written to the EFL to claim that Reading are not complying with their agreed business plan.

It’s been quite the week. In the last seven days, Reading have had an unhappy birthday, sacked their manager (but didn’t) and then put in a drab performance in a relegation six-pointer. Now frustration, anger and worry are all high among the fanbase and justifiably so. We’ve surely reached breaking point.
To discuss the chaos, answer your questions and look ahead to another inevitable defeat at Preston on Saturday, Olly Allen is joined by Adam Jones and Ben Thomas on this week’s podcast. Buckle in for a bumper show.
