The trillion dollar conman

[DangerousSausage]

As of today there's a new, six-part podcast about our very own fake sheikh Russell King and his ownership of Notts. I'm going to listen to the first episode in a few minutes, but I'm sure it'll be an interesting listen. 

It's on the BBC Sounds app or at this link:

Do we really want to be reminded of that era

Everybody too diplomatic.... Nothing really new and explosive.... Except for Russell King out and about again.... I wonder how big his numerous bank accounts are????

and the UK SFO seem to have done nothing:

I'm one episode in and there's nothing really new so far, but I did enjoy the account of how the club's then powers that be were received in Bahrain (they had someone pretending to be the king), not to mention the interview with Uncle Colin. It's certainly a punchy podcast for outsiders. 

What a crazy time it was, but thank god Ray Trew picked up the tab afterwards

did he not get off due to claiming he has a disability and declining health?
