Is he just another Geoff Sheard or is he actually more involved than we think.

0114 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Everything is so odd at the moment. Clearly some sort of power struggle between Alonso and Paxo. However I hope the clubs goes with Alonso & WBD sports. Who have clear workings with some successful elite clubs, amongst other decently run clubs such as Leicester, Southampton and even Cardiff. Paxo has only been connected too Doyen and you only have to search their name to understand they are a cancer amongst football. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiJ Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 I'm sorry, but this guy comes across like a complete moron. Honestly, this is so similar to the crap that was going off in 2009. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paxo is faceless and despised, so if he comes across as fan PR etc, then he gets people on his side. Hopefully there's actually some substance behind all this PR stuff he's doing and he's not just a salesman. Presumably he has spotted the fact that the club communicate virtually nothing, so trying to build fan advocacy by actually saying something and trying to look like he cares A cunning master plan.... just like . Baldrick's...... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
striker Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Well our other advisor has been nothing short of a disaster. I'll give this guy a chance, see what he brings to the table before dismissing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owls Loyal Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 If Erik Alonso wants to win over the fans in a big way I would suggest that he persuade DC to take on Paul Cook as our next Manager. If Cook comes in and we survive relegation (he probabl;y has the best chance given his track record) it will be a great achievement. Fans will be very grateful not only to Paul Cook but also to Erik Alonso for making the appointment happen. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alonso and his partner Sumal, and the companies No Limits Sports and WBD Sports are not FA registered intermediaries https://www.thefa.com/football-rules-governance/policies/intermediaries/fa-registered-intermediaries-list So how are they working with these elite clubs? Paxo has only been connected too Doyen and you only have to search their name to understand they are a cancer amongst football. Before jumping out of the frying pan into the fire have you tried checking out WBD Capital & WBD Sports? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theowlsman Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 It’s a bit of a bummer the pubs being shut, and international travel being curtailed. I can’t seem to agree where or when we can meet up to hear about his proposals for the club. Sorry, can’t vet him for you yet. Will let you know about Disco Pepé once I’ve found anything out. Mrs DBowl might know something about him though. I might ask her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SallyCinnamon Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Interestingly on Erik/WBD’s website one of their clients is Wu Lei. The Chinese player who plays for Espanyol. We played Espanyol in a friendly the other year. A lot of Chinese fans turned up to watch Wu Lei as he’s huge over in China. Maybe there’s some kind of connection there? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarrowbyOwl Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) The LinkedIn description of WBD Capital is cut and pasted from the OSO website, OSO being a company group owned by wealthy Indonesian politician and businessman Oesman Sapta Odang. Alonso knows his son Raja Sapta Oktohari who is also a boxing promoter. But is WBD Capital Management and subsidiary WBD Sports part of the OSO group as suggested here?
