"The Greenland Case"

Foreword:

To my possible successors - You will each have two weeks to work out the following case. You may send me two answers and theories, however, only send a second if you feel your first was incorrect. You can send me the theories whenever you want, and do as much research as you like. However, you may not receive any hints or extra evidence from me, so you are now on your own.

Good luck, L.

(P.S. The one who sends the correct theory first will become my successor, however the other shall become head of Whammys house and a respectable help of mine.)

Autopsy: Mr. Greenland, boss of Greenland industries, was found slumped over his desk with severe injuries to the head. Closer examination showed that he had been kicked several times and then hit with a blunt object. However, no object was found. Death was instantaneous. Time of death was around 4:30 pm, as the victim was preparing to go home for the day

Extra: The suspect was a massive football fan, and even had a ceiling fan with football boots attached to the end. He was also an avid reader, having books placed all around his room.

He was going bankrupt slowly.

Crime summary: There are 3 suspects. Mr Greenland wasn't very popular, due to his constant docks or raises in the wages of his employees. The lift next to his office wasn't working, so the killer would have had to have come up the stairs, where there is a camera fitted. All the suspects came up the stairs at least once.

No-one has yet been arrested, but you choose who goes to jail.

Please think about this carefully. Make up something if you like. If I find your made-up theory intelligent and with a decent (but not full) use of evidence, I will accept it. I expect the best.
