I remember Vlad parent’s Fish & Chip shop in Bell Street when I was a kid in Pascoe Vale. I also remember his eldest brother Jim, who played a few games for the Bombers. Played footy for Pascoe Vale, and he was a few years younger than me, but he had a good reputation. People now say he is a great bloke who does great community and charity work, not like the baby of the family, Vlad.

Vlado actually owes $311K to the Acquire Company ( nice little loan that has not been quietly written off by shonky accounts people in the meantime.) . Hopefully the receiver will claw it back from him, now that he cannot hand out invites to the GF lunch networking opportunity to gain influence and get off.

Sponsorship of Carlton by one of his companies fell over. Similarly, problems with sponsorship of Cronulla ( Scomos’s team) by a subsidiary of Capitol Health was in trouble, NAB had to restructure Capitol Health’s $50m debt to NAB. Just about everything he touches turns to dross. However he still seems to have some sort of advisory position with David Evans company. Players beware - his wealth generation may not be yours.

And the donkey they rode in on.
Can you put a global autocorrect on the C word (football club and inner northern suburb) to the correct spelling (rhymes with ‘Brunton’) ?
(Or should I just stop saying that)
Wasn’t Vlad involved in some sort of sneeky stuff with Crown Casino a couple of years back?
Think it is/was Crown Bet, which is an AFL sponsor
He’s at it again folks

He is in good company with two other Crown Directors - Coonan, a duplicitous former Coalition Minister and Halton, a former senior Commonwealth public servant who was in it up to her neck in the Children Overboard cover-up.

Teflon Andy will worm his way out of it again.
Huge stories about Crown having links with Asian crime gangs, prostitution, people smugglers, money launderers, the scum of the earth…
What the journos have overlooked is all this pales into insignificance considering they have on their board that colossal scumbag, Andrew Demetriou.

And this fat crook had the gall to critique the who ‘Pushup’ King kept as company.
“No,’’ declared Uncle Andy, ‘‘because I’ll tell you what I didn’t do - I never injected / people smuggled / prostituted / laundered / associated with any person / drugs / illegal proceeds / Asian gang members”. *

Who cares if the Casino does business with dodgy operators. Whether we like it or not crime figures are involved in legitimate business.
H’m, I wonder if Crown will get done for bringing the game into disrepute. I don’t think so its more like thanks for all your support James.
Ahem…facilitating money laundering deliberately?
