That comes as no surprise. No surprise at all. Funny how these characters have similar traits. |  |

Used car salesman to multi millionaire in a relatively short period of time through property investment & development. Firstly selling student accommodation (where have we heard that before?) followed by investments in that drug dealers' paradise of Dubai.

Sounds like he put other people's money into the club, not money that he had earned in an honest manner. Amongst other things, the EFL test is to verify that money coming into a club is clean. So, on that basis he should have failed the test. |  | |  |

No wonder an ex-CEO was alleged to claim they were well run? He allegedly had alleged friends who allegedly ran business of an alleged similar ilk. What a pity we missed out on all that funding. Allegedly. Rather be in the NL thanks! |  |

So he claims that Fleetwood Town, a relatively small EFL club, is indebted to him to the tune of £24m. And today the club issued a release to say that it is business as usual. Now what if the Crown decide that proceeds obtained fruadulently need to be called in - will it be business as usual then? Talk about burrowing your head in the sand |  | |  |

It's in the accounts that £24.4m was owed to group companies, all of which he owns. FTFC are Fleetwood Wanderers on Companies House. The much-vaunted cash cow training complex (as per aGM 2021) continues to lose money. |  |

I recall that points deducted / in a financial mess Reading were also much-vaunted on 1st June 2021 as an example of what RAFC should aim for. By someone. |  | |  |

Imprisoned for an earlier criminal conspiracy, but he still passed the OAD test set by the EFL. Absolute joke, but he deserves every single day of his incarceration, as do the people who helped him. |  |
