Royals owner, Mr Dai was not only kicking every ball and contesting every challenge with his first team players as he watched us pick up a point against Aston Villa from the West Stand... he even came down to join the lads in the dressing room after the game!

“Today we had in the stadium the club owner, Mr Dai, who watched the game," manager José Gomes mentioned after the stalemate.



“So I invited him to come into the changing room after the final whistle - to let him feel the atmosphere of room.



“It was a chance for him to see the players, see how the players are feeling, the way we are living as a group.



“And he got the chance to see how his players are fighting to achieve the target we want.



“I think he liked what he saw in terms of the performance, the way we fought, we were really bold and he felt this.



“He was pleased with the way our players tried to get the win and we would have liked to have given him the three points. But unfortunately, it wasn’t possible today.”
