TBF, Pompey were for a time owned by a Russian-Israeli organised crime syndicate. That takes some beating

I'm hoping the news broke in time for it to be included in tomorrow's Price of Football Podcast and they might have some idea. Although I'd treat anything they come up with with large pinches of salt as for an accountant Kieran Maguire can be quite fast and loose with the facts at times and has a nasty habit of answering a different question to the one asked.
His tweets and pieces are so riddled with rubbish that even a cursory Google rebuts I never know whether to believe a word he says. Sent from my SM-A125F

And then they were owned by Ali Al-Faraj, a sheikh who didn't exist. Unless that's the time you meant! No idea what to make of this really. Hopefully it hastens the end of Power.

As I said - I don't doubt there are bigger shysters out there who have owned clubs, but for sheer quantity of them we have had we must top the league.

Yes he was one of the front men. As I said - I don't doubt there are bigger shysters out there who have owned clubs, but for sheer quantity of them we have had we must top the league.
Ah, yes, on sheer volume quite possibly.

Assume the FA powers are far greater than the FL so any form of punishment is possible
