I think you're right it's a family business (all directors seem to be a Bell)........its website and the one of bell sports management seem quite similar also in terms of layout and colour scheme, would of thought you would have set up a new tel number right enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is all just a bit to weird. http://www.bellhydraulics.co.uk/ Not as weird as phoning up companies you've googled on the internet and then hanging up. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the keys handed over or will there be a meeting with all shareholders prior to concluding any deal?

Guest Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 No Mark Campbell is the sole shareholder (and chairman - whoo hoo!) for Fairway Sports Capital - set up April this year probably as the vehicle to launder mon.....sorry......purchase Sunderland & Falkirk. Guy A Bell is a shareholder in the Brooklyn Coffee Co, still to trade as the van needs 2 new tyres. He will be loaded like Mark as coffee has made him a fortune. https://www.linkedin.com/in/guy-a-bell-esq-4a20896His agency is Bell Sports Management 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Park is doing the scouting then thats a fair one, but if you have an owner and his buddies that are agents then i would guess that the only way they make money of those players is if they play every saturday which i would guess Rays not going to be picking the team any longer and its the player whos signed up with Bell sports management that they are trying to shift in the hope he has a good game and someone notices him to move him on for a fee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't really have an issue with that to be honest. At least it would mean that the players would have to be half decent to get any cash for them. If it got us better players and we get some of the cash for them then why not? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of ways it could play out but like i say with the sports management thing popping up how many players do you reckon they have on their books at the moment, i reckon this is one of those woke up in the morning wrote the idea on the back of a post it note and thought we will wing it with the finer details. All the businesses that have been folded/closed no accounts were ever filed for them is this the latest money spinning idea to bag millions ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
