  1. From supporters consultation meeting 2017 Andy Bayes: Quick question form the floor. Paul Keogh: I think most people in this room or most supporters at home will be pleased to hear that we’re no longer linked to SEM and Kentaro. Does that also mean that Suhail Pasha no longer works for Kentaro? Because he did previously. Paul Senior: Well I can’t comment on what he previously did but I do know that at this moment in time he’s not employed by those organisations; he’s employed by the owners. He looks after a number of the, or has a relationship with a number of the owners’ portfolios, including this Football Club - working in other countries as well. I have not been aware of any link or relationships between a professional at that level. He’s employed by the owners, by the club. James: What’s his real name, Mike? Obviously on Linked in, he’s called Suhail Sheikh. Every news article I read – Lancashire Evening Telegraph, even yourself referred to him as Suhail Pasha. So what’s his name: Suhail Sheikh or Pasha? Mike Cheston: I only know him as just Suhail. Paul Keogh: My question is to Mike. It’s regarding Suhail: you’ve just confirmed that he is employed by the club. Does he have a title for the club at all? Mike Cheston: Yes he does have a title. Paul Keogh: Which is…? Mike Cheston: Errrrrr errrrrrm Something like ‘Management Consultant’. I can’t remember the exact title. Paul Keogh: And do you not find it a little bit concerning from your point of view, Mike, that Paul has come along tonight and confirmed that he can openly pick up the phone and speak to Belaji or Venkatesh over in India? You’ve been here for how long now? Mike Cheston: Three years. Paul Keogh: Three years and you still have to go through Suhail? Mike Cheston: I don’t have to… Paul Keogh: Well why is he here, then? If you can open dialogue with the owners freely, why are we wasting money, under the current financial position that we’re in, and paying a Director or ‘Management Consultant’ to jet between India and England? Is that not a drain on our resources? Mike Cheston: I’ll confirm his exact title. I just can’t remember at the moment.
  2. Yes that's right. It's just odd that there was a fairly lengthy period of time when he seemed to be universally referred to as Suhail Pasha rather than Suhail Shaikh which he now seems to have reverted to. Maybe it's a Gamst / Pedersen situation who knows?
  3. He was definitely a Kentaro man. His original role at Rovers was as a 'consultant' before he became 'the owner's representative' or 'conduit' as Mowbray called him. Who knows when he actually became a Venky's employee or why he seemed to be referred to as Pasha rather than Shaikh for a period of time.
  4. Great read. Being "in this together" is what supporting a football club is all about - someone needs to tell the owners.
  5. I don't think these court hearings have much relevance now. The outcome of the ED investigation is what is important and that could roll on for ever and is not affected by the court hearing requested by Venky's. My belief is that there is still no official permission ( No Objection Certificate ) to send money out of India. However some 'agreement' has been reached which means they can send money - as confirmed by the recent cash injection to Venkateshawa London to pay off the training ground loan to Crossbaron. They didn't have to wait for the court approval for that. I suspect that when they sold the Neville house they probably paid off the tax they should have paid when they bought it in the first place. This may have earned them enough brownie points. So, in theory, they can send money to VLL for Rovers to use in January and there will be no FFP restrictions either. It just depends if they can be bothered or not.
  6. He has a wide range of musical tastes it seems. I bumped into him at a UK Subs gig last year.
  7. I wonder how much coaching McFadz gets involved in. He certainly seems very influential in terms of motivation and team spirit. It looks like a sensible decision to keep him around this season despite him not getting on the pitch very much
  8. Is it a coincidence that our Rovers' COO is currently in India on business ? I doubt it, wouldn't want to miss the party.
  9. Looks like they have paid off the loan from the guy in Bolton. I wonder if they had to pay a bond in India to cover this ? https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/13452736/charges
  10. Half season tickets on sale - a bargain at approximately 70% cost of a full season ticket. They are going to fly out!
  11. OK mate, no point continuing. You won't answer any of the genuine questions I am putting to you and you just want a playground squabble. If you change your mind and want to have a serious conversation send me a message. Thanks
  12. But you aren't able to tell me what happened or when. You just swallowed Waggott's 'no impediment' statements. I didn't and still don't. It's hard to know what believe because nobody - including you - can provide any evidence. I tried to get to the truth by asking Suhail but you don't believe what he told me about the July date. So it appears you know more than he does - fair enough, I'd love to hear your explanation.
  13. What is odd ? My beliefs are based on the reports from the court hearings that did not allow for future funds to be sent. How do you know something happened before July ? Do you know more than the COO of Blackburn Rovers ? I am obviously more likely to believe him than you - don't you think ? So, putting all that to one side, please inform me what happened before July, how did you know about it and where can I find the evidence? Thanks
  14. Isn't the whole point of administration to save jobs and keep a business alive ? If the club can't pay their bills in the near future due to cashflow problems but the general structure of the club is sound and the potential to recover is evident, then administration could well turn everything around. There are some very positive examples - Crystal Palace have been through it twice !
  15. What I always said was that the court hearing that allowed them to send money in November 2023 did not create a ruling that they could send any further money. That was confirmed by Suhail. However, something happened in July which, according to Suhail, changed the situation. I don't know for certain what this 'something' was and have yet to see any evidence as to what it was. Prior to July, they could not send any money without going back to court. If you were saying they could before July then I don't think that was correct. If you were saying it only after July, please explain what happened.
