I remember Ridsdale saying at the Brunswick that the American takeover had been rejected because the 'figures didn't add up'

That's charming coming from him :lol:

It's all true guys. Buy tomorrow's paper to find out how we found a double decker bus on the moon as Peter said we would. Wednesday has "How Peter saved my cat" by a cute 6 year old girl, Thursday's take is "Peter saves pensioner from being mugged." Friday's installment hasn't been finalised yet, we are waiting for Pet... I mean our source to provide us with further details.

i was in hospitality saturday. i spoke to risdale when he came in and when he left. he was alone on both occasions. came in on his own and left on his own. so dont know where the press says he came in with 3 americans, because unless they were in his arse pocket they wernt with him.

I saw him walking around the stadium on Saturday with a few blokes. Walked all the way around.

As a matter of interest can anyone identify the 'American Bankers' in the above photo?

The back row seems to be made up of Ridsdale and Harris on the right and Toshack and friend on the left.

That leaves 3 guys in the middle one of whom looks like security. That leaves an Asian looking fella and some old bloke and TBH none of them look like high powered New York bankers. :lol:

At half-time Ridsdale came out of the directors resturant early and stood on his own in the directors box for a good 5 minutes. It looked very odd considering he should have been entertaining the American guests

probably minders lol. he did leave abruptly after game tho i
was having a fag when i spoke to him when he was leaving alone but he was on the phone, so it was only pleasantries. i spoke to him before game outside level one in hospitality suite. he was alone, had the mrs with me and she was on my case not to upset her day lol. so didnt give him to much grief lol
