Was a bbc documentary about investment schemes run by a load of chancers that'd left a load of internationals in the lurch. Wonder if he got swindled when he was here or was at another club.

Much sympathy has been expressed re this, and indeed such fraud is a dirty little crime.
I'm always aware however the motivation for the players was to avoid paying taxes, y'know like we chumps have to.
The irony being those same players want the police and regulatory bodies to intervene and bring the criminals to justice and find out where their dosh has gone.
Those same agencies paid by, erm, taxes.
….Jack Harrison getting a rare run-out for Leeds currently playing Derby in the FA Cup. Leeds with the luxury of resting DCL but also an outing for the much-linked Willie Gnonto.
iirc howard wilkinson was on the swindlers payroll, he was one of the primary drivers of the LMA (League managers association) and had vouched for the criminals reputations. It is a bit underhand conning a bunch of teenage and early to mid 20's kids out of their career earnings. Some that fell foul of the schemes weren't long term top flight players so not the super wealthy elite with image rights and modelling careers.
I suppose a victim of a crime is still a victim regardless of their social or financial status. When something seems to good to be true it often is.
….Tom Davies in an FA Cup 3rd round thriller, currently Sheff Utd 3 Mansfield 4 with 15mins left.
It was on recently, Sean Davis and one of the Wallace brothers had been wiped out by it.
They`d taken what they thought was sound financial advice, to minimise their tax liabilities, as anyone would do in those circs and fallen foul to chancers masquerading as financial experts.

Used to work in Insolvency, you would be surprised at the players I came across who went bankrupt.
You wouldn't think that footballers would have money problems, really shocked me.

….Duncan Ferguson declared bankrupt in 2016.
Fair play to him, bet he’s earning an absolute fortune.

"Another judge profiled by the FT invested in tax avoidance schemes while ruling on similar cases." Do as I say, not as I do. Guilty!View attachment 339790
