    What were the Russos thinking?

    He lives in a dream world, taking out an order on someone for 1 million and is probably going to take out another one on someone else for 3.5 million, time he woke up!

    I'm sure he's plucked those two figures from what we got from Swansea for Danny Graham, and the payment to LNOC...

    Actually this is a bad thing. It's the people he owes that get stuffed.
    :bass: gets away with not paying his bills and the minor inconvenience of not being a company director for a couple of years, then effectively he gets off scot free to do it all again.

    Would have been better to send the bailiffs in to recover goods.

    Putting my amateur lawyer hat on.

    The good news is that he has been quoted in court "I do not own any property" Therefore the Red Lion must belong to someone else. Or whoever is paying rent on it to him can cease without legal recourse.

    Soon he'll be homeless ******* off a Belgian business man in a phonebox for £5.

    Is he a Stevenage fan then?

    No he wont. His family is still very wealthy - he'll be running a business or three again in a couple years time

    I'd like to propose a minute's applause at the first home game of the season as a tribute to LB

    I see your proposal and raise it to: all of the 1881 wearing one of these and all raising and lowering them in unison to a chant of w-@-n-k-e-r for a minute at the 18th and 81st minute of every game.

    He will have to change his name to Larry Bumsini now.

    Declaring bankruptcy is just a way of avoiding paying off the people he owes.

    The Russos were bloody fools to get into business with someone who had prior history, and they are the ones who are going to be significantly out of pocket.

    Can't see his family being daft enough to lend him any money. Which is a shame, as I was hoping to find a partner to help me buy the 2022 World Cup off Qatar, and Bas seemed ideally qualified.

    Exactly this. Do you people gloating at this news understand what this actually means? Baz has transferred all his substantial wealth into other family member names/accounts, a lot of which I suspect was done as/before the Russo freezing order was granted. He is the one who is laughing. Scum like him just use bankruptcy as a way of ****ting on others and keeping hold of there wealth. He has no shame in becoming a bankrupt again. Utter. utter scum.

    Is he still taking Sky Sports to court?

    The saving grace is the Russos, who he owes money to, are equally deserving of being shafted.

    Yes because folk like the Russo's are well worth shedding a tear for. Pull the other one!

    Yes....that's where the £3.5m is coming from.....the other £1m, that's due to him, is from the Watford Observer, for publishing him wearing a read hat.

    How do we know he hasn't changed his last name to Deeney?

    I think you are misinterpreting my post. Ho Hum. I have no sympathy for the Russos nor did I express any.

    Does he not have any equity in his Stanmore home?

    Bas would have expected this and planned for this, I hope I am wrong but he won't be out of pocket, he will be doing a similar thing in a few years time under another Name, he should do time for things like this, trouble people have no shame nowadays by being made bankrupt. They use it to their advantage.

    The sad thing is that even though this is his second (or third?) bankruptcy, they'll still be some foolish people who'll choose to trust him and lose a lot of money.

    A truly detestable little man.

    I'd still like to see how he'd run the club if he had a full preseason.

    I bet Bas will need to watch his back. I suspect there'll be a number of people looking for payback.

    These are only civil actions which mean he can't serve time unless he is convicted of fraud or income tax evasion.

    This detestable piece of filth walks away with just another tarnished reputation.
