Who the feck is Martin Glen

He used to be called Martin Glenn but he changed his name because people kept spelling it wrong.

Maybe we should give him his £50k back?

At least it looks like he's eating well.

 

[Brown Nose]

Looks like it's all his own fault.

Trying to evade paying tax as a multi-millionaire is not something many will be sympathetic towards.

Stupid man makes a series of stupid decisions.

What? And plunge the Foxes Trust into financial meltdown!

Aided and raided by unscrupulous agents?

Sad news all the same.

Sven-Goran Eriksson 'has at best a year to live' as he confirms cancer diagnosis

Former England and Manchester City manager Sven-Goran Eriksson fears he has at best only has a year to live after the former boss was diagnosed with terminal cancer

Sad to read. Hopefully he gets a bit more time than he's been told.

Sven had the incredible ability to be liked even as he floated from job to job applying very little effort for extraordinary financial rewards.

As City manager, he threw money around randomly and seemed to be completely relaxed about the consequences.

He was always polite and respectful and seemed well liked by everyone.

Not bad for a guy that zoned out of working hard 25 years ago. Sensational shagger too. A life well lived.

He was the subject when I first heard the phrase 'seasoned clunge-hound' - 'nuff respect

He’s a youtube man. I am not yet at the stage where I think it justifies much more than that but his wikipedia I am sure is great!

He’s the younger brother of a significant YouTube star named Logan Paul.

The Paul brothers, thanks largely to efforts at DAZN, have entered the combat sports space with Logan having exhibitions with Floyd Mayweather and becoming a WWE Superstar, where to be fair he’s done very well.

Jake himself has a had a couple of boxing matches but he’s largely living off the fame of his brother. He’s more Phil, than Gary.

Does that help?

 

[H T B]

Thank you.
So he couldn’t get a proper job then?
