    And why they entered the bid for the OS. So that they :

    - Could save over 200m (at the time) in construction costs
    - Get the stadium built even faster
    - Cost the UK taxpayer NOTHING


    Think of all the money the Spurs "snoopers" might have been able to save
    the UK taxpayer if they had merely called HMRC and asked them to have
    a look at the Spanner transfer dealings on French players.

    So one of the companies that own West Ham is registered in the Caymans, then? So I was right.

    Or because Spurs weren't actually accused of committing any crimes or asking anyone to commit any.

    Your owners donating a load of money to the Tories and being given a stadium by them is fine, though.
    Nothing corrupt at all here. Please disperse quickly.

    There were certain criteria that all the bidders had to follow, only one did, West Ham, despite being told on numerous occasions that the stadium had to stay as it was, Tottenhams plan was to tear it down, that is why you lost the bid. Maybe if you'd made a proper bid following the criteria, you would've won the bid.

    During the bidding process your club hired people to do some phone tapping so you could get an advantage, that is a criminal act.
    None of it surprises me at all though, your club and it's supporters are the most bitterly jealous bunch of hypocritical twats in football.

    no, you weren't right at all, as you said West Ham were registered there, which they are not, CB holdings are which is holding company of 10% of the shares left over to creditors of the Icelandic consortium. It is YOUR club that's parent company is registered in an offshore tax haven, not mine.
    Supporters should start an online petition to complain, but none of the other clubs have a majority of sad bitter pricks

    The place wasn't fit for football, as you've found out since moving into it.
    Spurs were encouraged to enter a bid that was never going to be considered, in order to make things look honest.
    The whole thing seemed to be a way of pressuring our local council, from my perspective. It seems to have worked.

    Spurs didn't hire anyone to phone tap people and nobody has claimed that's what happened.
    Investigators were hired because of the dodgy links between West Ham, Newham Council and the OPLC.
    You paid the OPLC's Director of Corporate Services to work for you during the bid. They didn't know about it.
    She was also in a relationship with your Stadium Project Director.
    I wonder why people thought that was dodgy! <laugh>

    West Ham are owned by a number of different corporations, at least one of which is registered in the Caymans.
    At least one other appears to feature in the Panama Papers too, though it may be a completely different Conegate Ltd, of course... <whistle>

    Oh, look. Bahamas. Nice.

    As for ENIC being registered in the Bahamas, that's where our owner lives.
    What is it exactly that you think the club's doing wrong? Perhaps you should pop down to your stadium and tell the HMRC?
