    Spot the difference:

    Fred Goodwin

    Nick Leeson
    To be fair Len, Nick Leeson was merely a mid-level offshore trader who cooked the books disastrously and his superiors never found out until it was too late.

    Fred Goodwin was running the bloody place!

    Nick Leeson did not have a clue what he was doing and made no money out of his incompetance, save his book and a few speeches. He was just a wannabe trader.
    Goodwin made loads of money and still has a £300k per year pension for the rest of his life.

    I suppose with Lincolnshire leading the Western world out of economic stupor you have every right to gloat.

    When are you going to make me laugh though?
