And hire the lovely guy Sebastian Vettel for karting lessons.
I'd buy Harry Redknapp's house but I don't think £213m would be enough.
Useful for the FA Cup third round replay at Bournemouth in January.

Strangely, I've never considered putting go-kart racing in the same sentence as being as green as possible...........................

I've said to myself before that I would carry on working, even maybe only 3 days a week.
But really, I'd probably say f*** 'em

1. I'd buy a nice place in the Highlands, somewhere modest with a runway there or near by and a couple of houses elsewhere, one somewhere warm and another secluded place in America/Canada
2. Flying lessons to utilise said runway and a smallish private jet, something like the Hondajet, a twin prop plane for the smaller runways or maybe a Spitfire (Shoreham is too short for the Hondajet
)
3. A mainline registered heritage railway locomotive, something for more sedate journeys around the country when the plane isn't desired, preferably with an old Motorail van to bring a car with me, a sleeper carriage and an old Pulman coach as well
4. A fleet of very nice cars, I'm a sucker for McLarens so a couple of those, I'd have to include something like an Audi RS6 Avant or Mercedes E63 estate as something practical to ferry to dogs/child around and definitely a Ford GT40
5. I'd give BTCC or GT racing a go for a year, why not.
I'm not sure I'd give up my job at first though, I'd like to think I'd carry on even if its just to see how much I could get away with before being fired. I'd also do the stuff everyone would do, make sure family and close friends are pretty much set up without debt and could live comfortably without giving them enough to give up work, just the freedom to do anything they liked.

Make sure my two daughters are financially secure for the rest of their lives...buy a house in the West Indies - St. John's and one in kefalonia. Buy a small yacht and moor it in the marina in St. John's. So six months in the WI and 6 months in the Greek islands.

If that was the case how would you get back to The Amex for games? I have always said I would live in Spain and assuming the games were on Saturday fly back to HH on Thursday spend the weekend visiting family and going to the match then fly back to Spain Tuesday unless a midweek game in which case it would be Wednesday.

It would be Spain or Cyprus but there are too many Russians in Cyprus for me now. Possibly The Algarve but I prefer Spain to The Algarve

I'd start/take over a non-league football club- probably at county league level and just go on a massive spending spree
-Build a stadium and name it after myself (inc. statue of myself obviously)
-Hire a flair manager like David Ginola or Jose Luis Chilavert
-give him a massive transfer WARCHEST to sign loads of flair foreigners
-Gain a reputation for constantly interfering with the playing side of things (eg. giving myself the number 9 shirt and forcing Ginola to give me 10 minutes at the end of every game)
and just see how far I get before bankruptcy

I really wouldn't bother. I am still struggling to get any enthusiasm these days ( west brom renewed it for a couple of days) and really wouldnt miss it!

should the enthusiasm return you could always take out a Bein Sports annual subscription as you would not be in the UK.

At the very least;
Open a live music venue in Brighton, after purchasing an empty site
Buy a house in Brighton and kit it out with rooms for a vinyl collection, a media studio to record radio shows and edit my YouTube live music series
Travel around the world - flights to the States are only £130 each way!

I'm not sure you realise when you're being funny. Which is one of the reasons you are such a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, covered in hair and Vaseline.
