WATR (The Rovers Trust)

[DeeCee]

Or the new CEO comes in, a professional with gravitas, and bails within 12 months?

have you email the chairman of the We Are The Rovers to asked why they haven't joined the Coalition and why they are sticking to original plan?

Nothing will change and unless they get someone in with a sound knowledge of dealing with league business and legislation plus all aspects of the inner workings of a club then how long before we fall foul of the authorities ?

Not long i'd say, no surprise if points deductions are on the horizon within 12 months time.

points deductions for what Tompill2?

No and there is no reason they can give to justify why they don’t join. All I can tell them to do is join.

I reignited this thread on the back of the women’s team going.
 

We now know WATR have now spent 5 years talking and talking and talking and talking to a guy who Venkys have just dismissed in 2 sentences.

Because some clown will make some monumental cock up at some point then try and cover it up.

It's absolutely amazing we didn't end up in trouble when they clearly had a 3rd party running the club in plain sight.  They'll not get away with it again and they've had Suhail hiding in the shadows running things but obviously he couldn't have a proper title for years due to whatever.

That kind of thing won't go unnoticed nor will the investigations in India, which so far hasn't involved the club, but how long before someone over here wants to investigate BRFC paperwork if some administrative cock up draws attention to the club.

Suhail is now the COO of Rovers now so that's not an issue

Rovers isn't an India company so how could India investigations investigate Rovers paperwork. The owners aren't on the board of directors either. 

I don't know enough whether they could investigate over here in the UK or not. do you have knowledge of whether they could or not?

Of course it could be an issue if he doesn't know what he's doing, that's the whole point he isn't an experienced football administrator.

I was referring to if something goes wrong at this end due to poor or incorrect administration the football authorities will then become involved.

That's the danger of having novices running the show.

If there is any suspicion of money laundering, it could be investigated anywhere. 

There have been suggestions in the past, that the initial funds used to purchase the club, were not necessarily traceable. I don’t know if there is any truth in that, or if it was investigated properly.
Pasted below is quite an interesting article.

Under SwagHail AND Broughton they couldn't get twp incoming signings involving good money over the line.

Benefit of doubt says they made cock ups although a lot would say there was more to it than that. However it still points to how amateur and odd it can still be behind the scenes at Rovers and now there is no real DoF nor experienced administrator in a CEO.

To go from that to the shadow boss and his tea boy is a recipe for disaster imo regardless of feelings towards Waggot.

They got away it seems with the training ground loopholes but what next if they are flailing around looking for short term money ?

It's those kind of cock ups that can become very expensive and lead to points penalties that's why clubs have to pay people like Waggot in the first place.
