Reading manager Paul Ince has confirmed his side are likely to be handed a six-point deduction next week by the Football League.
It will be the second time the Royals have been punished within 18 months having failed to adhere to the EFL's profit and sustainability rules. They then agreed to a business plan to reduce expenditure and increase revenue while also introducing a wage cap to help balance the books.
There are mixed reports regarding the reasoning behind the latest point deduction. The Guardian claim they have broken rules within the current plan while Berkshire Live state it relates to a historical issue and one that was out of Ince's hands.
