💰 Sell Before We Dai | Money In Football

In October 202- we did a Podcast on Reading called 'The Royal Gamble' (https://www.patreon.com/posts/podcast-planet-42484453), a reference to the club's desire to reach the Premier League and why if they didn't make it into the 2020/21 they probably wouldn't make it at all.

Fast forward nearly three years and The Royals have just been relegated to League One with the taxman chasing them and a...
