    Reading FC hit with transfer embargo for late HMRC payment
    3 hrs ago
    READING FC
    Reading have been placed under an immediate transfer embargo for failing to pay HMRC on time again, the Reading Chronicle understands.

    Due to pay a bill last week, the club are yet to pay the 'significant' amount and have been placed under an embargo.

    This comes less than a month after the club were served a winding-up petition for the same issue.

    Set for a date in court on August 7 for the last bill, which was eventually paid, it remains to be seen how this update will impact the hearing.

    A bit more detail.

    And yet I'm sure I saw an article last week about the ten most valuable players in League One and two of them belonged to Reading.

    Makes you wonder how their embargo can be lifted when they have a HMRC court case pencilled in!?!?
