I can’t get the scene from the wolf of Wall Street out of my head where the FBI interviews Leo on his yacht with two blondes waiting for him in swimsuits.

This is the life Joe Lewis was leading in his 70s maybe even his 80s.
And who says money can’t buy you happiness/ happy endings!!

Haha he gets frustrated with anything anti THFC and I get that. He’s been critical of Levy unlike the other maniacs who staunchly defend every action their tyrannical leader takes

Literally noone does this.

One of the reasons you have no credibility is because you say things that are obviously false about people who disagree with you. People interpret that as you having no interest in the truth or good faith discussion.

In what way ? So far we have seen no defence ( like his football club 😂). Innocent until proven otherwise.

Also the average sentence handed out in such cases seems to be about 18 months.

He’s in his late 80’s. He ain’t doing 18 hours inside. And the maximum individual fine is, it seems, $5m. $6.6 billion less $5m is about half of one Matt Doherty 👍. Uncle Joe’s pool ain’t going cold. Worse case he accepts the charge, does a deal and moves on.

Without “Tottenham” being part of the story there really does not seem to be any reason for the headline news. And he is no longer connected to Spurs in a personally significant way ( allegedly )

There is something odd about the whole thing. It’s not exactly nice how Billionaire Joe made his cash way back when. So finding out that he has no morals is not exactly good detective work.

All this mere hours after we hear that David “the porn king” Sullivan left Loughton cop shop, but that’s not news.

Is there any point where their defenders might say 'you know what, perhaps these guys are no longer fit for purpose and we need a change'.

I mean add insider trading to appointing a dodgy DoF, constant changes in manager, falling down the table, not sorting the team out, 3 month managerial searches and constantly rising ticket prices.

Every few weeks there's a drama, not of the good kind. Is there a cut off point? I grant you in terms of gallows humour its an endless supply of material but Its not great is it.

Once we went down the road of selling out to the abomination of the European Super League then anyone who still supports ENIC is beyond saving.

These people are rusted on.

I don’t know about that, this whole operation is part of a huge crackdown in America on illegal/insider trading, they are looking to make examples of people, especially foreigners getting rich there. Fining a filthy rich guy really isn’t gonna make much of an impact. Seizing property and assets would be the next step up, prison? Might be a stretch to far.

Well he'll have a fancy lawyer so perhaps some of the charges won't stick, maybe they'll make some sort of deal with the prosecutors.

I’d say a lot depends on what info they have and how convincing it is. IMO and I have no facts as yet the only way they could have concrete evidence is if they have a whistleblower or an agent on the inside.

Anybody with integrity would be an improvement. I would rather be ordinary on the park with decent human beings running the place than vice-versa.

Some of us have a moral compass.

For example?

Show me a person that can afford to buy our club that won't have skeletons in their closet.

Im not advocating for ENIC to stay, I'm just wondering who you would deem a decent enough human being with integrity that has the wealth to buy a football club.

If you just want the money that's fine, but lets at least be honest about it

ENIC owns us not Lewis. Nowhere does Lewis name show on any paperwork of the club or ENIC anymore as far as I know. It was passed on to 2 family members. Lewis has known this has been coming.

Mate, you know full well how this goes.
Indeed he knew this was coming. The timing is at best " curious ".

You don't need to have Zuckerberg's name on a document to know its Meta. Reputational damage.
