BBC presenter forced to apologise after Reading fan's outrageous comment about Wembley live on air

A BBC radio show presenter got more than he bargained for during a live broadcast over the weekend.

The incident occurred on a live show on BBC Radio Berkshire on Saturday 5 April during a post-match segment following Reading’s 1-0 win against Wycombe which saw the Royals go within one point of the play-off places in League One.

The presenter said: “I said on this radio station last week if Reading get to Wembley, I’m gonna wear my white Versace suit,” however before he could finish his sentence a caller interrupted.

“If Reading get to Wembley, we’re f***ing loads of prostitutes,” the caller shouted before the presenter quickly jumped in and issued an apology.

Fans on social media saw the funny side and could not help but have their say.

One said: "I was in the car with my daughter at the time.

"Couldn’t help but laugh!!!!"

Another added: "Wheeeeey!!!!!!! If we get to Wembley, I'm all for it."

While a third commented: "Sounds like a party."

Aside from the supporter’s comment, the fact Reading are even in the promotion picture is quite a remarkable feat.

The future of the club hangs in the balance after owner Dai Yongge was given an extended period to sell the club by the English Football League (EFL).

In March, the EFL announced that Yongge had been officially disqualified under the EFL’s Owners’ and Directors’ Test.

"As stated previously, the League's priority is to progress a sale of the club at the earliest opportunity, in order to end the current uncertainty surrounding its future for its staff, supporters and wider community," an EFL statement said.

"While Mr Yongge is yet to divest his interests, as is required following his disqualification, discussions for him to do so remain active and ongoing."

If Yongge fails to fulfil the EFL’s requests by the April 22^nd deadline the association could suspend Reading from playing matches.

"The terms of any suspension would be at the discretion of the board, and while suspended clubs are not permitted to fulfil league matches, they would continue to be a member of the league at that point," the statement added.
