Sick news for anyone involved with Brighton and Brighton football club.
After 13 years of financial insecurity and without a stadium it seems a poker player of all people has come to the rescue.

if he does half as good a job with this as he did with Premierbet then Brighton fans are in for an interesting time.

jmo but it's more likely he was head of a consortium that bid £9.5mm rather than fronting £9.5mm himself.
