It's like something out the USSR.  Secret shadow men, competing levels of reporting up the chain on one another.  Historically, all of that came with skimming off the top and a fire sale to finish.

From the information and who it resolves around, you'd suspect that comes either directly from JE, or somebody with close links to him.

Also, I've been (mentally) calling you Irac. Today I learned that it's just 'Carl' backwards.

Got to be JE & he's every right to put his version across.

Yep

Agreed. The old one just used to post transfer twaddle and then some vague shit about venkys possibly selling up every now and again.

This incarnation is posting some pretty damning accusations, some of which has been corroborated by other people's bits and pieces of information.

Once again, venkys are shown to be involved with the day to day goings on. They always have been.

Right. I only posted what I was sent.

I know. And the ‘Ashley’ chap seems big on detail. The Ashley chap is Inside Rover.

The one I quoted is Rovers Insider, who was the guy who popped up on twitter/X after JDT left. He’s the vague one. So you got the wrong one when you quoted me. I wasn’t on about your pal Ashley. 
 

Also @Herbie6590 has got Rovers Insider’s name wrong on the thread title, which makes it even more confusing, cos now there’s a chance there’s a 3rd insider😉

Ashley insider (Ai) seems to know a fair amount.

You can certainly say that again!!

Too many insiders.

However, it does seem as though the owners have been intentionally kept in the dark and/or have neglectfully left SP with full autonomy to run the whole club.

You would hope that this information and his blatant abuse of power / lack of competency in role will get back to them.

It would seem that he's the root of all evil - as well as being the one constant - as far as what's wrong with the club.

If you look back at the tweets from the OG insider it does seem like they've been right in what they've posted re Suhail...Matches some info with the latest insider also.

I do believe it has been accepted for a while now, that he is running the show and he is a dangerous individual.

He is no longer in the shadows though and despite his desire to remain anonymous as he can, I do believe the net is closing in on him.

[StHelensRover]

Been out all day and just caught up with this. It's all very exciting but I just worry and think everyone needs to be extremely careful. From a legal point of view and also from a credibility point of view.

If this stuff is genuine, then that's brilliant that it's in the public sphere and the club will hopefully be panicking.

If some bits of this are not quite right, but go viral and the club can easily prove they're not, it helps them derail genuine protest and discontent: "can't take these guys seriously, they believed/stated X"

Worst case scenario is that there is deliberate leaks and misinfo, or that it is someone on a massive-windup. All using bits which are just about believable. 

Let's see. 🤞

When he/she first starting posting the OG Insider got stuff about the new kits right. But after that it got more and more vague. The tweet you posted has been exclusively taken from stuff posted on here the last few days, especially stuff by Glen. 
 

[DE.]

Unleaded posted that Park left because of JE. Now we've got this fella suggesting JP got on with JE and actually had issues with Gestede...

 

 

 

[Tomphil2]

He has nowhere to hide now i just hope enough exposure gets around to enough fans to realise this harmless bumbling 'Owners Conduit' act has always been a load of bull shit and he is just another installed clueless puppet who now tries to run the club as he wants it.

Shebby was right on track to do this very thing until he got derailed, god rest his soul.

We've ended up with the penny watching message boy running the whole thing it's no wonder it's a consistent mess.

I disagree slightly...The below screenshot (posted earlier on in the year and last year) matches the new comments from this other insider.

Fair enough, but again that bit about SP being the problem has been posted on here many times. I might be wrong but I just think the OG was once in the loop but isn’t anymore. I was convinced at one time Rovers Inside was GB!

From what I now know, my opinion is that Pasha was the one that failed to hold on to Eustace and appointed Ismael. His remit is likely to be, the Eustace compensation, means, we got a manager for free for 12 months.

Pasha is unlikely to care too much about the play offs, his agenda seems to be ensuring that the owners don’t have to spend.

Hopefully, with signs of unrest being made public in India, the heat is about to rise.

This side of things interests me. Why has he suddenly, after all these years, assumed a public persona?

We know that he has been heavily involved since at least 2015. In a decade since there have been no interviews, a couple of photos of him sat next to Waggott and that's it. 

Now all of a sudden he's volunteering to do hour long sit down interviews and he's apparently overseeing the commercial operation.

It's just a very odd recent shift in his approach. 

It also doesn't make much sense to me that he's now seemingly tasked with overseeing operations and commercial activity and 'reports' to Waggott on this yet continues in his other role as Venky representative/communicator.

I always assumed that his anonymity and silence in the shadows was enforced by the owners, because they didn't want one of their gang being exposed and publicly scrutinised after their experiences back at the start of their ownership. Then with this I ask myself whether it was all his decision to remain silent and run things from the shadows, and he has chosen now to be the time to emerge.

Why now?

We've technically been in worse situations during his time - relegation to League One, League One, a very close relegation battle last season. No appearance or comment from shadow man.

I'm linking his emergence to his new job title as 'COO' which has only happened in the last year. 

I am however convinced that he is the biggest issue in the corridors of Ewood - far bigger than Waggott or Gestede - and I am also of the belief that it is he who has ensured there is no link between manager and India. I remember Broughton and JDT wanting to go out to see the Indians but it was scuppered by someone - I think he enjoys being the only point of contact to India - but nonetheless the Indians are the root of all this. They have to go and the regime collapses quickly at Ewood.

[StubbsUK]

The Rudy thing about him taking over from Steve Waggott was discussed at a meet the former players event last season. He was on stage with Craig Conway and he was clearly there for another reason because all the questions were quite clearly written for Conway.

He was asked why he was back at the club and he told us he'd been doing a course on football business management and was there to discuss shadowing Steve Waggot and wanted to become CEO at a club. I don't think anyone there that night was left in any doubt which club that was going tobe.

Perhaps because this is the first time in a long time that the unhappiness on the terraces has become mainstream media news. He’s had to come out of the shadows to try and quell it. He hasn’t needed to before.

My view is that he has been forced out, into the open.

We had the statement a few weeks ago from WATR which forced him into a meeting with them. Since then, people seem to have cottoned on to the likelihood that he is the decision maker in the UK.
