Soar Fox Posted 12 May 2016 Posted 12 May 2016 Be very surprised if he won that much at that casino, I'm sure they limit you to how much they bet. Also that casino has a corporate box at the stadium bang next door to the owners box.
nobby.bk Posted 12 May 2016 Posted 12 May 2016 Don't think so. He's been quietly donating sizable money to many worthy causes for a number of years now. Thai kids who are learning football at LCFC Academy are jointed funded a scholarship programme set up by him and Singha Beer Co. He doesn't blow like to his own trumpet (rarely grant interview to newspapers) but people do notice and talk about him.

Rich people can negotiate higher limits to play with on card tables, so long as the player is playing with so much money.
thybluefox Posted 12 May 2016 Posted 12 May 2016 They'll have donated to the Leicester Hospitals for tax right off purposes I'm not that up on my tax affairs - but how is donating £2million going to make you pay more than £2million less in tax? It literally makes no sense.
stevelcfc Posted 12 May 2016 Posted 12 May 2016 Hasn't this already been posted a while back? How about the owners donated it because they are genuinely nice people and want to give back to the city.
