Daniel Wright, who racked up three football banning orders during his troubled days, once wreaked havoc on the Bradford City company known as The Ointment. His violent career culminated in a six-year prison sentence.<\/p>\n<p>However, he is now recognized as the lucky investor who pocketed \u00a31 million through British Millionaire Makers in April 2022. That large windfall enabled him to buy a new house and splurge on a luxury Rolex watch worth \u00a340,000. Despite his reformed lifestyle in the Durham market town of Yarm, the 41-year-old recently reflected on his hooligan days.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>When asked about the most terrifying football mob he had ever faced, he declared, &#8220;The best company I&#8217;ve ever seen is Manchester United in Bradford.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Anyone who says Manchester United is not a good company is talking complete crap. There are just a huge number of them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Speaking on the podcast Anything Goes with James English, Daniel continued: &#8220;Speaking of those early pranksters, they were the best in the country for a long time. That might have been their peak. They were really good back then. Really good.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He also claimed that he once mobilized 600 supporters in preparation for street clashes.<\/p>\n<p>Asked if their numerical strength made them superior, he admitted: &#8220;Definitely, who else could score 600 points?&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Daniel claimed that The Ointment were the most fearsome and unpredictable, and admitted other opponents had come close to matching United&#8217;s notoriety.<\/p>\n<p>He said: &#8220;My top five would probably be Man United, Tottenham, Millwall and Birmingham in no particular order.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>After a short pause, he continued, &#8220;Middlesborough, Sheffield United, Leeds, Aston Villa, those are the teams I would probably play there too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting Leeds in particular, he later said: &#8220;In my day Leeds always won, but I&#8217;ve seen Leeds on their day, like the England-Turkey game at the Stadium of Light.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That company in Leeds that I saw that day was an absolutely incredible company. They were a top company at the time, there&#8217;s no denying that.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2144712\/Football-hooligan-Euromillions-jackpot-Premier-League\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A notorious football hooligan who changed his life after winning the EuroMillions jackpot has revealed what he thinks is England&#8217;s toughest company.
