READING stars were subject to abuse from their own fans after suffering yet another defeat.
George Moncur’s last-minute winner for Leyton Orient left the Royals in the League One relegation zone – four points off safety thanks to their four-point deduction.
Several Reading players approached the away end to apologise for the defeat
Harlee Dean spoke to raging supporters
Manager Ruben Selles also spoke with some of the travelling contingent
That sparked outrage in the away end with chants of: “You’re not fit to wear the shirt” ringing around Brisbane Road.
Fans also sang: “We want our Reading back.”
Manager Ruben Selles approached fans to apologise for yet another away defeat – Reading have now picked up just 12 points from a possible 87 on the road dating back to the beginning of last season.
Several Reading players applauded the more than 1,200 travelling support with defender Harlee Dean also speaking to fans.
However he was met with a lot of finger-pointing from fed up supporters, who saw their club suffer relegation from the Championship last season.
Reading have been embroiled in crisis for several months and have been deducted 16 points over the last two years.
Last month they were hit with a four-point sanction by the EFL after failing to deposit funds.
The club was also placed under another transfer embargo and came close to a further points deduction by almost failing to pay their players on time.

On the pitch the team has not fared much better with just three wins in 11 games.
Fans have protested against the club’s owner Dai Yongge and managed to get last week’s match with Burton suspended after throwing tennis balls onto the pitch.
Yongge is open to selling the club but has reportedly set his asking price at £80million, which some fans believe is too high.
