Twitter is great for finding out which of your friends and aquaintences are horrible racists.

Facebook was always the default.
Instagram is useful for sharing pictures of the kid with grandparents and friends.
Twitter is useful for stalking William Storey.
WhatsApp is for groups and organising.
LinkedIn is for promoting work stuff.

Etc
What’s your Twitter name/handle/thingybob?
ive been blocked by him so many times I can't keep up. Usually something with Rich in it though.
con man Will has done it again! He's been "sponsoring" OMG racing in the BSB for a couple of years and has now stopped sponsoring them mid season whilst they're leading the championship. He's blaming them with all sorts of crap, but the reality is, you can't buy the drink on the website because it's been taken down, you can't buy it on Amazon because they've been thrown off for selling out of date product and the whole thing has come crashing down. I love seeing this conman fail over and over again!

Can’t believe anyone went anywhere near them in the first place, hopefully the team aren’t affected too badly, but if they are they can’t really blame anyone else but themselves for getting in bed with the scammer.

I would 100% take sponsorship money off them. Why wouldn't you!

mental isn't it. I have no sympathy for OMG to be honest, they knew the history and still listened to Storey.

I would allow them to sponsor my TikToks, if they pay up front 🤣

Maybe gavster can do an out of date food series on some of their cans if he can get hold of any 🤔

They'd find that stuff in 1000 years and it'd still be fine to drink 😆

It sounds like Mr Storey is an unscrupulous nobhead. However, as far as OMG go, getting money is a different kettle of fish when it comes to sponsorship, it's not like getting a job or work contract. I used to help a guy with sponsorship for his racing seasons and it's a complete PITA getting ANY money. Lots of empty promises from people and dead end leads, especially after you meet someone at an event and they've had a couple of drinks. Maybe you guys have the inside track on OMG's thoughts, but they could have known it was a risky punt, and a risky punt is better than zero £ when you want to race. And if they're leading the championship then it puts them in a good position to get a new sponsor right now, as they've got an awesome value proposition as leaders.

Theres a risky punt, and then there's associating yourself with a well known fraudster who's already publicly fucked over another motorsport outfit.

Again, the promise of a little money does wonders for removing peoples sense of right and wrong...

Unless you've been involved in behind-the-scenes discussions between OMG and Mr Storey, then you're simply gossiping based on what you've seen on social media and are not in a very good position to pass any kind of balanced judgement over OMG's decisions.

Defend him all you like - he's a con man with a well publicised history of bullshit.

As the judge said: "He had a tendency to make impressive statements, which on further investigation or consideration were not quite what they seemed."

Alex Gardner was aware of his history, so is either a terrible judge of character, stupid or in on it.

Yes...but if he was going to give me money for sticking some logo's on my race car id shake his hand.

The problem would be said money arriving after said handshake however.

Bit of a different proposition if you were talking about sticking his logos on your job though.

"Guys, the money hasn't come through - everyone ok with not getting paid this month?"

You can say the same about almost any CEO though

Unbridled optimism + unerring confidence = proclamation of amazing things just about to come true (that rarely do)

this was in a court of law where he was being (successfully) sued for copyright theft. Theft of the logo that he used for his company, shortly before that company went into liquidation owing millions - like all the other companies he's had.

I was surprised to see they are sponsoring a BTCC team.

for now... won't be long before they realise they're not getting paid either!

There's a book out soon about Storey - should be an entertaining read...
