And the other one is a convicted watch smuggler.

And not just any old watches either. Rolex ones worth £84,000 which he apparently got as gifts from the Qatari world cup bid team who also paid for him to take a free holiday at their expense. Just the sort of behaviour you would expect from people associated with squeaky clean Bayern! Another club that dubs itself European Royalty.
 
I think it was the estimable @tolmie's hairdo who said that some of these football correspondents see themselves as stars these days. And this would be one explanation for the stultifying arrogance of the tweet below, in which a tabloid football writer affects a deep knowledge of how top commercial law firms interact with their clients.



FWIW, I've spent 20 years of my career working in commercial law firms, including some of top global and national players. I spent another six in an advisory role in the legal service of a central government department. The above is bollocks. City's lawyers will have given them a very thorough and impartial appraisal of the strength of the case we'll be putting to the CAS. Doesn't mean we'll win, as you can never absolutely guarantee that in litigation. But we'll be very well aware of the level of the risk that we might lose. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a clown.

Lipton makes it up as he goes along. He loves the limelight, he loves everything anti-City. As you say nothing is assured, but one shouldn't worry about anything he has to say.

That's an amazingly stupid tweet, surely he can't think we use the law firm 'No Win, No Fee' of Sue, Grabbit and Run?
