[Albion] Football Ownership

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

There's no doubt that TB likes to keep his interests private, but it isn't really a 'rags to riches' story based on gambling. His grandfather Harry (vice chairman in the 70's) was a multi millionaire and I think that the family have always had very well managed diverse interests across the world. TB has simply kept this up very successfully. And simply doesn't even start to cover the complexity involved

Not quite the 'Professional gambler who has made all his money through gambling' that the press always like to portray

It has been reported that he has a massive property portfolio. I think the gambling (and even Starlizard) is mostly a bit of fun. Money making fun, of course, but if you have the skills and ideas, why not?

No need to apologise

(I though I'd been whooshed; for some reason I like being whooshed. Call me wired...)

OK then. Just to make you happy:

And it's in the right colours

director in companies in the UK other than that we know (Brighton, Starlizard) -

I don't think he is a director of Starlizard.

Starlizard does make some serious amount of money, to sign up to join you've got to invest a minimum of £5m. Also money made from gambling is tax free so it can generate a big income. Obviously TB has loads going on but Starlizard is much more than a bit of fun.

(and while he isn't a director of Starlizard any more he is supposedly still a customer/part of the syndicate.)
