I'm not so sure. Given the ridiculous extent of the undervalue of this arrangement, there's going to be an ongoing outcry against this. A very good article to read is from that revolutionary left wing agitator, The Daily Mail -

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...-Stadium-deal-entirely-financed-taxpayer.html

There's a number of avenues to challenge the legality of this arrangement, including EU laws on competition and government subsidy. If the Daily Mail are prepared to go hunting Tory grandees, then anything is possible.

They must've forgotten to give the Viscount his cut.

As I have repeatedly said, you cannot fault their owners.
They speculated on what would happen, and they were correct.




You couldn't be more wrong if you tried. For starters the THFC bid would cost the taxpayer zero pounds.

We've explained this to you before.You don't care, why should you?

Those of us who live in London have been paying an additional Council Tax levy for the Olympics for a decade now. For a government body (LLDC) to give this asset away to the detriment of those Council Tax payers is likely to be proven to be ultra vires and illegal. The perpetrators have attempted to hide their doings behind ridiculous claims of commercial sensitivity which the FOI Commissioner rejected out of hand. The fact that the players on this are all members of the Tory party and involves individuals making large political donations to that party makes it something that should end some political careers.

There has been cross-party support for the publishing of this information by the elected members of the London Assembly who don't trust this deal. If your Local Authority decided to sponsor Derby with your Council Tax money, how would you feel?

Equally, I apologise - "You don't care, why should you?". The Foxes Trust has been 1 of 14 such trusts working on this with Charlton, as are Spurs, Chelsea, Arsenal,Manchester United. Anyone acting against this is a friend of proper government and the hope of true accountability of those who seek public office and its rewards.

It's still too early to call it, but it's a long way back. Painful lesson about starting slowly.

You appear to have failed to notice that your place in the organisation is currently 8th to our 2nd.
Not sure how you missed that, to be honest.
