Michael Chopra fronting some bid to buy NUFC 16:31 - Aug 17 with 2062 viewsthebooks

I seem to remember ITFC bailing him out of his gambling debts so the heavies wouldn’t kneecap him, so I’m sure this is all legit:

Who better to front a football consortium to buy out a club with a history of trouble between a very passionate fan base and a succession of owners, than a former player who played for their bitter local rivals, has a documented gambling problem, and has been chased down for money by hit men.

Fit and proper person test, anyone?

What can possibly go wrong?

Fronting the bid is stretching it a bit - the article literally mentions he is enlisted to help. Hardly fronting!

Are the fit & proper person tests the same throughout the leagues, or is the PL different? If no different to Wigan, then he'll clearly sail through!

Someone told them it's Michael Chopra, but it's actually Aaron Cresswell.

If you are buying a circus, it makes sense to have a clown fronting the bid.

Frankly I’m not sure what you would have to do not to be a fit and proper person for our football authorities!

I think the guy at Charlton failed to pass it so they must have some standards.

I can't believe Chopra played more games for town than any of his other clubs (according to wiki!)
