Hi @Lee Strafford
Firstly no vendetta here. Just a normal Wednesday fan here, who’s losing sleep over the current situation and started digging. Definitely not part of any Tapton Lodge massive.
Just been pointed across to this thread, and your comments in it, after discussing David Richards MBE in the “to the fans” thread.
I am fairly certain that you are incorrect about David Richards MBE being the nephew of Sir Dave Richards.
See this thread on the Sheffield Forum from 13 years ago which includes a post from a member of the Richards family, clarifying the family make up.

Merlis is David Richards MBE’s Dad. Merlis’ brothers (and David Richards MBE’s uncles with the same surname) are called Earl, Clive, Peter and Hilton.
Furthermore, it is public information Sir Dave Richards’ son is known as Dave Richards Jnr.
How many families do you know that give cousins the same name?
I understand you state that David Richards MBE told you this information first hand, but as far as I can see - it is false.
I won’t speculate for the reasons on this, but I wonder what your current personal relationship is like with David Richards MBE?
From previous posts on this website from many years ago it seems you were involved with him at Wandisco but left in 2010. In 2013 you made a post alluding to the fact that he might be able to save us in a couple of years, if he sold Wandisco for what you projected he might. It seems like you held him in good light.
Now it seems you’re against him being involved. Is there more to this Lee?
I just want to state that these are not leading questions and I’m not accusing anybody of anything. I’m just curious to understand what’s going on here.
