He was supposed to be the money man to pump millions into Manchester United, never forget how he dribbled the ball into the penalty area at the Stretford End before kicking it into the empty net, taking the applause from the fans behind the goal. Although I believe he had money, in relative terms to your average supporter, in football terms I don’t think he had a pot to urinate in. If memory serves he bought Carlisle later on. Pompey had similar people , an oil rich Arabian Prince, his oil was salad oil unfortunately, he disappeared to be replaced by another “ Fake Sheik “ who nobody at the club ever got to meet, followed by two Russians who owned a Latvian bank, they were soon found to be thieves not businessmen, followed by an Indian guy, based in Hong Kong , who took us to the brink before the fans managed to wrestle the club away from these playboys in the High Court. Beware the knights riding to the rescue, they are not always who they seem to be. Hammers and Four Goals Please
