Ridsdale taking the credit

Tue Feb 09, 2010 7:39 am

Surprise surprise he's taking the credit for paying the £1million. Makes it sound like he's paying the tax bill - Peter Ridsdale, today paid around £1m of the £2.7m owed to Her Majesty's ­Revenue and Customs.

Also says Ridsdale Sells ther land :lol: - Confidence has been boosted after Cardiff City Council, which owns the freehold, allowed Ridsdale to sell two areas of land around the stadium to the Capital Retail Park Partnership for around £750,000.

Cheeky baztud :lol: - I notice he's not taking credit for the season ticket fiasco :lol:

Anyway heres the article - http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010 ... city-debts

Can't stop laughing at the cheek of the bloke :lol:

I hate the idiot but be fair there are no quotes from him there and as chairman of the club he is the person who is fronting the club and it's debts

I think it's hilarious, the front of the man is unbelievable, he is the most brazen character I have ever come across. The cheek of the fella knows no bounds :lol:

£750,000 for the land, I thought it was being sold for £1.8m?

Soon picked up on these Ridsdalism's, when anything works or is succesful, he's done it on his own, I delivered the stadium, I built the stadium, I have taken the team to the cup final.etc etc.

When things are going wrong it's either something that was done by others, set up before he came here, or it's the collective WE that we now hear so often.

there was no way the land transfer was to take place in 6 days
i would think the 1 million has come from the season ticket sales.
