Re: ALK Capital or Farnell/Elkashashy takeover
Yes, I think they’re an example of one club that was funded by their owner (well done on the spelling, I didn’t even dare attempt). He stood out as a genuine, well intentioned (and rich) owner who was understandably adored by the fans but sadly impacted by tragic circumstances. I’d classify the Ven...
