Contested deletion[edit]

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because... First of all, the page is currently under creation and was marked as such. Richard Arnold is a notable Company Director of the world's largest sports franchise, Manchester United FC. His work has been heavily documented in the British sports and business media, and the page will be supplied with a number of references to reflect this. His work includes a $600 million USD world-record sponsorship of Manchester United by General Motors (Chevrolet) and the negotiation of a $1 Billion plus 10-year equipment contract with German clothes manufacturer Adidas, and this has been of note in British, European and world sports and business press. Please do not delete this page, it will include an infobox, career and education history and notable acts as Group Managing Director of Manchester United F.C. Thank you. --IrishSpook (talk) 23:46, 11 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Please note that I am a paid employee of Manchester United FC.
