Premiership: London mayor slams stadia stumbles

London Mayor Ken Livingstone has hit out at the British government’s handling of the Wembley and Picketts Lock fiascos after giving his backing to Arsenal’s plans to relocate to a new stadium.

Livingstone acclaimed a ‘‘world-class stadium’’ for Arsenal after giving the go-ahead for the Gunners to move to a new £250m (€404.6m) development at Ashburton Grove.
