In The Traitors, has any contestant figured out yet that the last person through the door is usually a Faithful who was discussed for murder? #CelebrityTraitors

The Coates family are worth billions, yet throughout their ownership of @stokecity we've still had to operate within the same rules as everyone else.
They've invested hugely in Stoke-on-Trent, creating jobs through Bet365 and contributing millions to local charities, education and the NHS.
But none of that gives them, or anyone else, a free pass on football's financial regulations.
If the allegations against Man City are proven, the ramifications are enormous. The damage done to the integrity of the game would be immeasurable.
Yet all we seem to hear is denial and deflection.
Personally, I hope the Premier League throw the book at them.
The UAE owners have invested billions into Manchester and have helped transform the local economy, creating thousands of jobs and opportunities for people.
The Etihad Campus alone has supported around 14,000 jobs, with the latest £300m+ development expected to create another 2,600 jobs.
So if the Premier League thinks it can push Manchester City into a situation where the owners pull back their investment, a lot of people are going to feel it.
Workers will lose jobs. Businesses will lose customers. The local economy will lose billions in investment.
This isn't just about football anymore.
Keep playing with 115 if you want.
Just remember that there are real people and real jobs behind that investment.
