February 16, 2008 by Robert
BBC’s gambling expert and TV pundit Angus Loughran, better known as Statto thanks to his appearance on 90’s cult TV show, Fantasy Football, has been declared bankrupt.
It has emerged that Loughran has been unable to pay his creditors and was declared insolvent at a hearing at Manchester County Court on February 4. Details of how much he owes, and to whom, were not disclosed and it remains unknown whether he declared himself bankrupt or if it followed a petition from someone he owes money to.
Loughran’s work includes being a racing correspondent at BBC’s coverage of race meetings, which include the Grand National and Epsom Derby. He also writes a weekly betting column in the Daily Telegraph and commentates regularly on football matches covered on Eurosport.
