Define the conflict of interest, please, as I don’t see any. I see a group willing to invest in British speedway at not just team, and league but also at national team level and goodness me, we need more like them. 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
snapper 193 Posted January 25, 2023 Of course British Speedway is a wash with possible league sponsors so they should turn the Allied money away and get another sponsor 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thank goodness the chairman of the BSPL has no conflicting interests either. 1 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wonder what benefits they will get from it I wouldn't see Glasgow the speedway team getting any benefit, apart from what I would see as potential prize money if they were to be successful in the league.

So the company doesn’t lose any money then as it goes right back into the hands of the same people. Doesn’t sound fishy at all. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's much less of a conflict than having the same people owning more than one speedway club in competition with each other. So the Facennas choose to invest in Speedway in the UK and all they get is S##t from people. I guarantee they've put more ££ in than they've got out of it. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaizer 2,879 Posted January 25, 2023 Ffs the facennas throw more money at British speedway and the first responses are the usual negative bs. Must wonder why they bother. This is a conflict of interest but Godfrey and ford on the manage committee that's no issue. Couldn't make it up 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
