isnt there some kind of conflict of interest (or speculative interest, i dont know how to call it) in the people that could come into the board with a Rosell victory? i mean this one is into tv rights, one other is into managing sports facilities, others into sports management, whatever that means, and etc. call me suspicious but i would defo hate it if the club falls into the hands of people that would only milk it for their own personal profit.
ReplyDeleteyou touch a very good point, anonymous. one rosell will certainly have to reply to during the campaign.
ReplyDeletethere's obviously a danger there. on the other hand you could say: they are very well skilled in some areas, so they can also help the club there.
true that, am sincerely hoping it would be a case of help the club and not help themselves to the club. thanks pep. hmm i see my comment posted twice..
