David M. Zornow, Legal Counsel to #Tottenham owner Joe Lewis:

"The government has made an egregious error in judgment in charging Mr Lewis, an 86-year-old man of impeccable integrity and prodigious accomplishment. Mr Lewis has come to the US voluntarily to answer these ill-conceived charges, and we will defend him vigorously in court."

Well he would say that!

I wonder what kind of excuses the ENIC IN brigade and anti change mob will come up this time, they have been preaching to us for years about how squeaky clean and whiter than white our owners are.

Just been reading a bit more about it, can't see anyway in which it would impact the club like some other accusations/charges against other owners or clubs could?

Bit of a shock in the sense it's someone who owns the club but not sure how it would impact the club in anyway other than if he decides to sell?

I have little understanding or knowledge of sketchy financial/insider trading but it seems entirely separate from the actual football club?

He doesn’t own the club anymore, he put it in to a Trust that his daughter now manages.
