The son of a Top 4 England Premiership football club owner is a deadbeat, so claims intermediaries working on behalf of a Costa Rican-based online sportsbook looking to collect funds owed.

"He (the son) admits to owing but claims he's lost enough money in the past to the book that the debt should be forgiven," the intermediary, Charlie Bishop, tells Gambling911.com. "He also says that the sportsbook slow paid him once but that's because this individual was a notorious slow payer in the past."

Now the England football club owner's apparently refuses to pay monies owed.

The amount in question is just over $800,000.

The individual owing money currently resides in South America on a sprawling estate and appeared on a high rated reality show, Bishop disclosed to Gambling911.com.
