Ady Williams chats to Reading's former Chairman, Sir John Madejski, who saved the club when he bought it in 1990.

Madejski then went on to build a new, modern stadium for the club to play it's football, and made the decision to bring Steve Coppell in as manager, who eventually led the club to the Premier League in 2006.

The club also provided Madejski with the lowest point of his life, when Reading found themselves in deep financial trouble in 2014.

(We asked Anton Zingarevich if he would like to add anything to Sir John's comments and views, but he has chosen not to take part)
