The Times reports that Kingsley the Lion will be born free and the mane charges against him and been dropped. He can walk the touchline with pride and roar on Hunt and and other members of the Royals pack.
With Reading chasing a Uefa Cup place in their first season in the top flight, Kingsley might have had to miss the vital match against Watford at the Madejski Stadium on Saturday. However, after reviewing video footage, an FA spokesman said: “We will be taking no further action.”
Thank Lions for that. It is the last home game of the season and my son would have been gutted not to see Kingsley this Saturday. Common sense has prevailed otherwise there might have been a 5-year old pitch invasion to take out the reference. He was really annoyed when he saw him being “sent off”.
The premiership rules are so prudish. Back in the Championship, Kingsley was allowed to do much more, such as belly flops over the inflatable advertising hoardings.
