Some 23yr old business prick in town on Saturday. . . . .obscene although more than likely just some big publicity stunt.

Quote

A self-proclaimed financial whizz-kid who shot to notoriety after spending more than £200,000 on drinks in one night has been arrested.

Foreign currency trader Alex Hope, 23, is being held on suspicion of unauthorised trading after the City watchdog alerted police.

Hope racked up the huge bar tab – larger than the value of the average family home – in a Liverpool nightclub last month.

The bill included £125,000 for a giant bottle of champagne.

The raid, by City of London police and authorised by the Financial Services Authority, took place at a property in East London on Tuesday. If charged and found guilty, Hope could face jail.

City rules state that, while Hope is allowed to trade currencies – converting pounds into dollars or euros and vice versa – to make a profit for himself, he must have a licence from the FSA to work on behalf of others.

Such a licence can cost £1,000 a year.

Hope was catapulted into the media spotlight last month thanks to his astonishing drinks bill at the PlayGround nightclub in Liverpool’s Hilton hotel, where he is said to have entertained Wayne Rooney’s wife, Coleen, and Manchester City stars Joe Hart and Adam Johnson.
He spent £125,000 on a double Nebuchadnezzar of Armand de Brignac champagne – the equivalent of 40 ordinary bottles.

It weighed 99lb and had to be carried by two waiters.

The tab also included 40 bottles of Ace of Spades champagne, along with £4,000 worth of Grey Goose vodka.

Along with a 10 per cent service charge of £18,540, the total bill was £203,948.80.

But rather than shy away from publicity, Hope, who had previously been pictured socialising with Desperate Scousewives star Layla Flaherty, revelled in the attention, even hiring a PR firm to promote himself further.

MO spotted dining in Chester on Mothers day, exactly at the same time as the manc's were turning out at Wolves, prompting a thought that there is not much interest in his team mates there and making a lie of the suggestion that MO is likely to make any contribution in the ' title ' run-in.

Think I saw David Johnson and Howard Gayle at The Isla Gladstone Conservatory for the Man City game last season, they are part of the hospitality package.

Forgot to post in here!

A week ago, before the Blackburn match, my mate met Carroll!

He's down in Blackburn staying in a hotel for whatever it is he's doing, all paid for, lucky git. Anyway, him and mates were in the bar or whatever, and he said Andy bought him a drink, but then realised he wasn't over 18 and so drunk it himself?! (This was BEFORE the match) but the best part was, he then got him a pint of water to make up for it.

My mate didn't even know who he was! My first response was, was he drinking? Dickhead! But then he scored the winner and I said whatever you did it worked.

He's always in Chester.

If there's one thing he could do that would possibly give me a little bit of respect for him is if he went and played for them. They've just been promoted to the Blue Square North, he's not going anywhere at United and it'd be a nice touch. Not like he needs the money.

OK - so yesterday was a let down, but the highlight for me was sitting right by Jocky Hansen!

He came out just at the kick off and sat right in front of me! Couldn't believe it! Managed to shake his hand and get a photo. He was with his wife, daughter and her boyfriend (I'm guessing). He was happy to talk about the footy and that, slaughtered Skrtel for their 2nd goal, and I had to laugh when he described Mata getting man of the match as a 'diabolical decision'.

Jumped around like any fan when we scored, and seemed to have his own superstitions by changing seats when we were getting beat.

Legend and made my day to be honest!

And no - I wasn't sat in Club Wembley or anything, top tier row 6, seat 100!

Bumped into the youth team players outside Wembley yesterday - Suso, Coady, Ngoo etc.
A few of them (none of the above) were pretty arrogant actually.

Anyway, saw Ged too. He stopped to sign autographs and let fans have a photo with him.
Seems to have really aged.

Gave him a round of his "allez Gerard Houllier"
