REVIVA on 12:46 - Jun 13 by Plankton | Reviva. Owned by Gulf Oil |
Gulf oil is owned by the Hinduja group a massive Indian conglomerate. Gulf UK is a small company run by the company's lawyer and based in London. Perhaps its called a holding company or shall company. I stand to be corrected on that. (It has no serious money of its own). I got the feeling the first link with Gulf was when a local petrol Service station chain in Swansea was taken over by Gulf Oil and Gulf took over as the shirt sponsor at the same time simply to fullfill its corporate obligations. I cannot remember the name of the local company but it had black and h yellow livery. I would be surprised anyone of that era would remember it such that the link was re established. | ![](/images/avatars/27402.gif) |

Donald "Curly" Humphries owner of Action Petrol sold up to Gulf back in the 1990. (33 years ago). https://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/curly-petrol-king-mourned-2206320 Swansea had a yellow and black strip to match the service stations. I was unable to download it on account of not being clever enough with my chrome book. Rather than getting frustrated just accept it. RIP Curly. [Post edited 13 Jun 2023 20:27]

I was not in the area at that time so cannot comment on whether Curley diluted the petrol to cut costs. Gulf bought the company anyway. It could be local gossip but I keep an open mind on your accusation. Was he ever pulled up for it? You can carry on distrusting the owners who put money into the club. Xenophobic filth is illegal and I draw your attention to it. Some Welsh people like me find it offensive. The club and the Welsh FA claim to be 'zero tolerant 'of all abuse and therefore in my opinion need to act. | ![](/images/avatars/27402.gif) |

Have Wrexham just had a 10 million cash injection then. If we can't be upbeat about our prospects now may as well find a new hobby or support Wrexham perhaps | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

The little know coffee company will not be little know for much longer. it is owned by the Hinduja group. This is a massive Indian conglomerate who want a piece of the coffee roasting action. It looks like a start up and some advance subliminal recognition fr the launch next year. They are likely to go big in the UK in my opinion. https://www.forbes.com/profile/hinduja/?sh=5f393db84482. Good to see little Swansea get noticed amongst the world's richest people just because of Curly from Newport. [Post edited 14 Jun 2023 0:36]
