[Football] StarLizard and... Ipswich?! (Tony Bloom makes showbiz gossip email Popbitch)







Cheshire Cat

The most curious thing..
Just for interest, I just had a look on Starlizard’s website.

There is a vacancy for a Graduate Football Expert. The application requires you to rank, with comments, every Oxford United football squad player!
That won't take long
1 =:shit: , 2 =:shit:, :shit:, 3=:shit:, 4=:shit:,5 =:shit:, 6 =:shit:, 7 =:shit: etc.

How much do you want to pay me?

I'll take the statement from that article that TB doesn't own or run Starlizard with a similar pinch of salt, to the statement "a fortune estimated at £714million" from that same article.

Could you imagine Mrs TB's face when Tone says "I've blown half of everything we own on my football team" :wink:

I had an interesting call from a city journalist about TB and his wealth. He made it clear that the media have no idea of how much or ultimately where Uncle Tone has made his money, but the educated guess was that it was well over a billion.

An uneducated guess reckons that may still be low.

IIRC Harry had already made a few mill out of Car Dealerships over 45 years ago. With a bit of sensible investment ???

Easy mistake that one. Bigger question is why it is spelt nous not nouse, or not pronounced noose or probably more efficiently why are mouse and house not spelt mous and hous.
Well if one is culturally well orf and live in the Home Counties one would imagine their people live in a hice . No doubt the gamekeeper would have shot any rodents that were buggering about - what.

A friend (who has no interest in football) did some high end Commercial PI work for him, and has always maintained he is worth considerably more than 1 billion.
