#4 The Lizard” - The (international) poker playing chairman with the cool nickname
The chairman of Brighton & Hove Albion is a certain Tony Bloom. A property investor by trade, Bloom also happens to be a professional poker player. He has appeared in tournaments such as the final table of the World Poker Tour.
His glittering poker CV includes winning the Australasian Poker Championship individually and the Poker Nations Cup with Britain. To top it all off, he is nicknamed “The Lizard.” Not sure how many clubs are around whose chairmen carry such a cool nickname.
