    Hate? Don't think so. I reckon many of the millions trapped in negative equity will wear a wry smile at this news though

    Let's be honest this sort of nonsense has no place in these times, good luck to anyone who can get some fool to part with cash to pay for this service. Doesn't matter who it is though obviously he traded off his name and "celeb" status. It was only going to be a matter of time until it ran out of steam f f s. All those staff and in Chelsea, it's not Phil we should be laughing at but the fools who paid for the service over the last 13 years. :confused:
    I came in to this world with nothing and I've still got most of it left. :rolleyes:

    he may not have been forced into administration/liquidation at all, just taken a view that the business is unlikely to make profits over the next few years so it should be shut down. just because a company is wound up doesn't mean it has gone bust, even if he did inject some of his own money to try to turn it around.

    I like him. Not sure why people are gloating at his down turn.
