Tyler Durden Posted April 27, 2022 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Yes how we chortled when he made his son at Oxford sell us Dean Saunders causing Mark Lawrenson to quit in protest. Probably had his fingers in the Mirror Group Pension fund at this point. Master fraudsman. IslandExile 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using your pension scheme as a contingency piggy bank was not unheard of, and was not of itself illegal at the time. Of course, it enabled you to keep rolling the dice perhaps beyond the point you should stop. Maxwell and Mel, 30 years apart but some surprising similarities..... cstand and Crewton 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawley_ram Posted April 28, 2022 Share Posted April 28, 2022 As it happens, I was looking at the stack of papers last night from when I was born (Jan'91) and the front page of the the Telegraph reads "What are you doing to our club" with a picture of Maxwell in a Derby hat and a damning report about him!

He'd be 99 in June if still alive. Not saying that's beyond possible, but he was a fat bloater with health issues I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To think we won the top division exactly 50 years ago, then again 3 years later, wearing Navy shorts. You'd think the difference would be obvious to everyone but apparently not...?♂️ CornwallRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but he is also one of the alien lizards in human form that make up the Illuminati. Those beggars live longer than giant tortoises.

It was mossad agents acting on the orders of the Queen mother and Tiny Rowland.... Or was that the Diana conspiracy theory? I get so confused.... ?
