Having read both the articles in yesterday's Daily Star Sunday and the Sunday Express if they were true it would be suicidal for Ridsdale as chairman of Cardiff City and there is no way he is that stupid.
Times are hard at the moment for Petre Ridsdale, unhappy fans, the press, the taxman, further investment and takeover talks all at his door, who said being chairman of Cardiff City was easy. Being English has very little to do with Mr Ridsdale problems with the fans at the moment, trust is his big problem and the lack of it.
A statement was quickly put on the Cardiff City Official Website yestreday saying,
CHAIRMAN DEMANDS APOLOGY
An article in today’s Express implies that I said that the agenda from some sections of the media to force me out was because I was English. We will be seeking an apology from the Express as I expressly said that this was not the case. In fact my grandparents were Welsh.
I do feel that some sections of the media have an agenda but my background has never in my opinion played any part of that. I will be seeking an apology and a retraction from Express newspapers.
Peter Ridsdale
