FIFA vice-president Jack Warner is facing renewed questions about conflicts of interest after his family firm were given the rights to sell Trinidad and Tobago's ticket allocation for the World Cup finals.

Warner is a special adviser to the T&T football federation and eyebrows have been raised after Simpaul, the travel agency owned by his family and of which he is a director, bought the rights to sell the tickets.

Critics believe the rights should at least have gone out to public tender rather Simpaul merely paying £50,000 to be the authorised ticket sellers.

Simpaul is offering a £2,720 package for Trinidad's three group matches, including 12 nights in a hotel but not flights nor transport costs in Germany. They are not selling tickets, which would have a face value of a maximum of £207, separately.

It is not the first time Warner's business activities have appeared to conflict with his role in football administration.

In the 1980s and 90s he obtained FIFA's TV rights for the Caribbean and then sold them on to broadcasters.

His business is all perfectly legal, but it does raise questions about whether someone so high up in FIFA should also be involved in the commercial side of football.

This may not be the end of the matter for Warner however, because Trinidad's prime minister Patrick Manning - mindful of public opinion as this is T&T's first-ever World Cup - has ordered a report into the affair.
