lee_saint Posted 28 April, 2009 Author Share Posted 28 April, 2009 I believe Jersey, one of the Islands, I had it on in the background and caught a bit of it. Def Ben Steele was one name, Quinton was the other, missed the surname. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry not over excited about this at moment Maybe not, but you gotta look who they have links too, with a League One club it's never going to be a big name, then again, if they have any links to Project Blue company then it's got links to Dubai.

The9 Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 Yeah, with the names being Ben Steele and Quinton Hubburd.....I can't find anything on these guys, not even their names to any property developments in the UK and Europe. Me neither, I keep finding a rugby player, a northumbrian graduate in environmental issues and a bloke who makes BBC documentaries, and that's just the UK search. The international one has all sorts of randoms. Then again property development is only usually newsworthy if it's illegitimate or unscrupulous, so that's not such a bad thing.

The9 Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 I'd be reluctant to make any half-baked judgement about the suitability of someone to potentially own and/or run a football club based on their name alone... though weirdly I seem to be in a minority.

Pancake Posted 28 April, 2009 Share Posted 28 April, 2009 "Their batting has been strengthened by the arrival of 28-year-old Quinten Hubbard, who has joined the club after arriving in the island during the winter. The ****gy-haired property developer has represented Hampshire at under-19 level and he is the husband of the island hockey development officer, Becky Hubbard. ‘We’ve lost a couple of people but gained a good cricketer in Quinten,’ said the captain. ‘He looks a solid middle-order batsman and a very useful orthodox off-spinner.’" He's a youngster then...
