My first post on here for ages, so hi to the regs ... oh and well done flushy too, since I've only just also found out about that!
I won't comment directly on the situation at such a sensitive time, but I have met Neil a few times and always found him to be a really decent guy, so I'm incredibly shocked at all of this.
Obviously those of you who have invested have my sympathy and the right to be angry, but for the rest of you perhaps now isn't the time to judge. If his IVA was through gambling then like any other drug addict, he saw an angle and went for it. Unless you're there (and trust me it's not nice) where you will basically do anything you can to get a bet, then it's difficult to understand. My guess would be that this wasn't an attempt to grim although obviously false intentions from the start but to gamble and went horribly wrong then lied and skimmed trying to cover as the lies, bets and cover-ups got bigger (more Nick Leeson than Ronnie Biggs). I realise this is criminal and I'm not trying to justify or excuse Neil's actions but offering a possible, likely explanation that many of us may understand.
I hope that this does prove to have been reported sincerely exagerated and that some of you who have invested large sums get some return.
Good luck all - probably post again in six months lol - Rob

seems a strange scenario to hope for, but these are strange circumstances and this is my gut feeling too Highstack |

Hes still around.
Someone had asked him on his Facebook wall yesterday if he was still ok to be team captain of the Pro Traders at a poker team event next month
so i just replied "I'm not totally convinced by Neil's ability to lead this team by example"
and its been deleted...
