  1. Interesting chap for sure, look forward to seeing the rest of these. That first answer though, certainly was a very genuine legitimate product that added to the landscape… and then premium charge and the sportsbook came along. I suspect he isn't quite so proud of that bit, still, everyone has their price and I can't fault him for cashing out.

  2. I remember him being interviewed on Steve Wright in the Afternoon on Radio 2 when first launched ! Imagine a bookie being promoted like that on radio these days. That's how innovative if was back then.

  3. Seems like a great guy. Real shame he decided football club ownership wasn't for him. Swindon Town were heading back to the Premier League with him at the helm.
