Agree with O'Keefe here, I read somewhere that the maximum fine is $5M, the old cunt has made a billion dollars since covid FFS...
Why would you do that? Because it sounds good? I don't know his familiarity with the American system but his take on its face it seems dismissive...and naive.

Typically, those fines are on a per count basis...JL is up for 19 counts. Sure, he's worth 6+ billion but how are those endeavors going to fare when this news hit? He clearly understood the collateral financial jeopardy when finagling his interest in Spurs.

I just wonder how long JL and DL have known about this and how that has it informed our apparent short-termism.

Good job that Lewis doesn't own Spurs then.
 
Mate, people get convicted of this shit all the time - you rarely, if ever read anything about the people they spoke to at a party one time. It just doesn't happen.

This is serious for Joe Lewis and anyone who knowingly took part. This isn't serious for every single person he has ever met.
A lot of insider trading is personal . This is passing on stolen information to friends , employees, they have 19 counts so far . You think they’ll stop there? These 19 are probably enough to convict him or they wouldn’t have been so public & it’s not like this is a political case. It’s pure greed. They will continue with investigations

Insider trading I get.

Can they prosecute people for acting on information received from insider trading ?
Or is it a case of just interviewing these people to build a case ?

Im not disputing they will investigate, the only people that will be implicated and have any kind of issue with this are those that were involved.

No one is knocking down spurs players doors looking for evidence of insider trading.

He no longer has anything to do with the club, in truth he never really had, we were just another investment among hundreds, we just happened to have the highest profile...
...is that cos he knew what was coming.. .?
No, it's because he's in his mid-eighties
 
Eh ??

Enic, which is a limited company, of which THFC are a subsidiary.

Lewis signed over all rights and control to his daughter and it's administered by lawyers.

Ah so the Wikipedia article that I posted must be wrong then.

You’d be compliant , unfortunately for many they will be investigated, of course I hope not but everything Lewis has done regarding finance will be scrutinized, that could include Kanes trip to two of his homes , the 150m loan to the club , buying property cheaply.

They will be very thorough
