    Joe Lewis has been indicted for alleged insider trading.
    He has (allegedly) form for this.
    More often than not but indictments turn into convictions.

    Presumably he traded better advice than Spurs are ****e and were gonna lose, cos betting on that would hardly make people a fortune.

    Does this mean Spurs might go bust?

    I sadly assume not as it seems to be about him rather than the club, could be another Abramovich style quick sale.

    Agreed with this, nothing to do with spurs so there will be a line of demarcation between the alleged insider trading and Spurs. If proven, I would expect a sale to progress swiftly though

    He’s handed himself in. Easier then giving Tottenham a transfer budget

    Sounds like he is in big trouble, plenty of assets to strip from him but unlikely to affect the spuds. If anything getting rid of him and Levy could be just what they need...

    He transferred ownership to a trust in the Bahamas last year. The PL should have been all over that last year

    Joe Lewis is just a shareholder of ENIC. I doubt it would require ENIC to actually sell Tottenham.

    Music mogul Jay-Z is preparing to bid for Tottenham if the club's owner Joe Lewis is convicted of alleged fraud and insider trading. (Sunday Express)

    He probably wouldn’t fail the ‘fit and proper’ owners test for fraud and insider trading.
