Gold slaps down Chelsea fan’s Twitter jibe

David Gold has given very short shrift to a Chelsea fan trying to give him a hard time over the Olympic Stadium.

After seeing his team cheat their way to a draw against the Irons yesterday a Twitter follower tried his best at baiting the Irons co chairman by dredging up a subject which has been aired relentlessly and maybe to beyond even boredom.

Enjoying a small moment of spotlight from OS envious fans via 69 Twitter ‘likes’ cfc away @Cfcaway tweeted: ” Why should the rest of London subsidise you new ground?”

The question of course – which has been answered a million times – should have been posed to those responsible for agreeing the deal with West Ham –  the London Legacy Development Corporation who are ultimately responsible for what does and doesn’t happen at the stadium..

Gold, however, chose to respond saying: “The tax payer is not subsidising the OS the tax payer is investing in a vibrant, profit & job generating project. dg”
