    Mel clearly got it wrong, it was a witch hunt, I feel he was hard done by with the ffp deduction. He wasn't with the administration though, he's a wealthy man he didn't need to do that.

    Maybe next time if he's in football ownership he should go down a different route, bribing refs and burning their properties down if they refuse, having judges cars smashed up, or if that fails a bit of drug smuggling will boost the coffers.

    You very cleverly avoid naming names.
    But seeing as you mention it, it can't be Marinakis as he's been cleared of every charge labelled at him.
    Of course, if you know different, nows the time.

    And I hear that Al Capone ruled an empire of crime including gambling, prostitution, bootlegging, bribery, narcotics trafficking, robbery, “protection” rackets, and murder, yet was only ever jailed (eventually) for taxevasion
