    I imagine he looks like Trigger from Only Fools and Horses.

    Swap Triggers blue suit for a chocolate brown one and that's Tickles .

    It's hilarious that the US government tax two-thirds of lottery wins

    Providing its 49% I dont see any problem.

    Equally I don't see any major investment coming in for a minority share of the club.

    I read an article about the lottery win ellewoods mentions, and they said that of the £223m prize money, he'd have £100m left post-tax. Not quite two-thirds, but bad enough.

    From the Mail Online article the day after we went up:

    "Allam, who runs Hull City with son Ehab, will have more considerable investments to make.

    But with the Premier League TV money, plus other significant investors ready to back them, Bruce will be able to plan properly."

    I asked at the time if anyone had heard anything more with the question: Any idea if the 'other significant investors' is just made up by the Mail, speculation or based on some inside knowledge?

    I think only Tigermaul replied and seemed to think the reporter was usually pretty good.

    You are taxed 49%. They difference in % because when you take the cash payment rather than the scheduled payments you get less money so you are being taxed at the smaller amount as opposed to the listed lottery total. They say that the cash payment is more money in the end if you invest it yourself as opposed to taking the scheduled payments. In reality most go broke a few years after they win the lottery so the scheduled payment plan is the way to go if you have no self control.
