I have no idea what point you are trying to make. Nobody is claiming Richardson paid for anything are they? Are you saying he had no involvement at all and therefore didn't have an agreement in place to purchase the land and didn't arrange the deal with Tesco?

This is a myth. The data just doesn't back it up at all. If you look back through history you will only find two Labour governments who have ever left office with the national debt higher than when they came into office. All other Labour governments have lowered the national debt (as a...

Not sure who Astute is actually arguing with! Is there anyone who actually thinks Richardson put his hand in his pocket and purchased the site?

Problem is the same thing will happen to Leicester and Stoke as happened to Southampton. Their best players will leave, possibly to club that finished below them but are still considered bigger clubs.

That's how I read it. That he arranged the deal.

The rights deal should have expired over the summer. For some reason it is still Ricoh but with no announcement being made about them renewing. If I recall correctly the football club was the draw for Ricoh. Wasn't the idea of naming the stadium but forward to Ricoh by the top dogs at NRG, who...

Agreed. I would have thought the tax man would want to know what the ticket revenue was, not how many were there.

That would be the west stand thats opposite the TV cameras. So the stand people were looking at then taking the piss on twitter about all the empty seats.

Just had a look and the same game last season got 16,712.

More likely to be one idiot ISIS sympathiser acting alone from what has been described.

The Telegraph normally put a load of pics up don't they? Not sure how easy it is to navigate back to past games.

Had a quick look on twitter, found a few more pics. Doesn't look anything close to 10K to me. They must be counting all the free tickets they give away that don't turn up. They're getting the piss ripped out of them by fans of other teams. Seems it was on the TV. Doesn't seem like they're...

Not owned by Cardoza is it?

Think she's put a curse on him!

Mourinho's reaction to all this is great. He refuses to believe there's anything wrong and just keeps blaming everyone else.

Looks worse than a Tuesday night early round JPT game. Sure Italia will be on later to tell us it was a huge success and there was definitely 10K there.

What is untrue? Richardson claims he arranged a deal with Tesco where they purchased part of the site for £66.5m, it was actually sold to Tesco for £59.4m. The CT reported CCC purchased the land for £20m including the cost of decontamination. That would leave nearly £40m towards stadium...

The pitch at Wembley was £100K, If the pitch at the Ricoh cost £40m its no wonder things don't add up!

You're not comparing the same things.
