Apparently a guy called Mike Dellios, who’s an agent, is the main man behind the bid. His son is one of three players who have been on trial with us. I’ve heard the manger was told he had to sign him and that this Dellios chap walked into the changing room at Stark’s unannounced to say he was buying the club. I know nothing about him but have spoken to somebody who said his involvement is a big red flag. Hope this isn't true. If it is, it sounds like Anelka mk2.

Doesn't look a bad player, certainly no worse than some of the players we have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 So how does a Swiss agent, running a micky mouse youth academy out of Glasgow get their hooks into a shonky private equity firm in Hong Kong? Certainly this guy's involvement clears up why a HK investment firm knows about Raith Rovers... On the face of it, it sounds like a nice fast lane to oblivion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently a guy called Mike Dellios, who’s an agent, is the main man behind the bid. Mike Dellios shows as affiliated with EVRO Skill School and EVRO Football Pro LTD, both based out of Glasgow. Formed in 2018 or 2019, EVRO Football Pro LTD is currently overdue for a confirmation statement with Companies House, but its accounts are up to date. Principle activity is running a football academy, but it’s accounts note problems with COVID interrupting its business…plus it added about £300k in debt in 2020-2021. Edited to add: George John Fraser was affiliated until 2020. This is the Fraser now active with Broomhill FC.

Quick look on Facebook if it’s the same guy he was born / comes from Arbon Switzerland and his son is of the same name all ties in with the BBC Scotland report , I’m beginning to worry now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McGuigan1978 Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 (edited) Just having a look through the now apparently defunct “Evro Football Pro” Twitter feed, and my favourite post, hidden amongst the cliché ridden, meaningless tripe, is one where they wish everyone a “Happy February” In all honesty, I’m less worried about some Swiss agent’s son sitting in the main stand watching the game each Saturday, than I am about the club being connected in any shape way or form to George Fraser.

Absolutely in bits at some of the posts, I’m not sure any of them make any sense. They read like they’ve been written by AI. Really enjoyed this answer they had for what was apparently a frequently asked question - 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
