Should be suspended until the end of criminal investigations rather than sacked imo. If he's found guilty then sack him fine, don't think you should sack anyone who has a run in with the law until they're proven guilty.8

I guess the bankruptcy order is enough though, given the comments of the registrar. It's very sad, though, for all concerned.kentaddick said:Should be suspended until the end of criminal investigations rather than sacked imo.

It's a shame because without a job he will not be able to pay all those people their money back.

Sad if true, at the ripe old age of 31, he was my hero growing up.1

What message does it send out to the kids at the academy. "Your coach is a tea leaf".
Great role model.

Very saddened by this. That's all.0

Disgraced former Premier League defender Richard Rufus was on the brink of being sacked by Charlton Athletic on Wednesday after being found to have masterminded a multi-million-pound “criminal” fraud.
Telegraph Sport has learnt Rufus will be told to resign or be fired as academy coach and ambassador for Charlton Athletic Community Trust less than a week after a High Court judge ruled he conned victims out of almost £9m and pocketed more than £3m from a £16m “Ponzi” scheme.
The 40-year-old, once voted Charlton’s greatest ever defender, was branded a “rogue” and a “dishonest character” for orchestrating a scam involving almost 100 unsuspecting investors – including family, friends and congregations of churches he attended.
He could face criminal charges after being hit with a 15-year bankruptcy restriction order by Registrar Clive Jones in a civil trial last week.
The Insolvency Service described the case as “one of the worst” it had encountered, comparing it to a £32m scam that in 2012 saw a City trader jailed for 13 years.0 - Sponsored links:

'God is my only judge' sounds like the title of one of the more low-rent spaghetti Westerns.5

The club cannot just ignore the scale of his dishonesty. What message does leaving him at the Academy give to the kids?0
-
If we don't sack him and he subsequently faces criminal action, it could be pretty embarrassing for the academy.1

Richard may find this is not the case.
Very sad.0
