I would be turning up at Alexander Jarvis home or Liverpool office first thing in the morning and giving him a real hard kicking for leaking my involvement with a supposedly “secret” bid Rochdale that is now fully public because of the ineptitude of Blackbridge Sports forgetting to provide the evidence of funding to the EFL.
After giving him a prolonged and robust kicking I’d sack him as my adviser.
Andy Curran and Darrell Rose had previously held a veil of anonymity so far that the EFL have said today they “cannot find any evidence of the source and sufficiency of funding on behalf of the potential purchaser having been provided to us.”
It does looks like both Curran and Rose has been the victim here of a premeditated and vicious sting/con by Alexander Jarvis. Andy Curran and Darrell Rose, both with limited football club experience, appears to have been taken in by an experienced footballing intermediary chancer and I sincerely home they are not out of pocket for this chancer’s time and costs.
To start off with the picture from outside the BBC which Jarvis posted on Twitter. “Looking forward to a morning of interviews. #BBC”
He’s never been on the telly according to the NYT! Just posing outside.
Duffen said it soon became clear to him that Jarvis “had not done a football transaction before, or more likely, any transaction.”
So limited football experience…….not helpful if you are either Andy Curran and Darrell Rose, his clients paying good hard earned money for supposed “expertise”
Company records and interviews with people who have dealt with Jarvis indicate that Jarvis may have overstated his connections with some of the top figures in the sport and exaggerated his partnerships and associations with top clubs and companies – some of which have asked him to stop trading on their names.
So a liar……again not helpful if you are Andy Curran or Darrell Rose. If he is prepared to lie to people in the past then he is likely to have lied to you.
“In the football space I’ve got unlucky on a few big things, been screwed over on some things. But I’ve not lied,” said Jarvis,
So inexperienced……not helpful if you are “unlucky” all of the time. You tend to find that winners don’t make excuses like that.
“Barnsley, a second-division club based in northern England, was looking for new investors last year. Jarvis had established a relationship with Chien Lee, a Chinese-American businessman who owns the French club Nice and is now part of the ownership group at Barnsley. Jarvis introduced the businessman to several soccer teams in Britain. Jarvis said he also acted on behalf of the Barnsley seller Patrick Cryne, who was terminally ill at the time and died earlier this year.
The relationship grew fractious, and people close to the Cryne family accused Jarvis of leaking information about the deal to the news media in order to boost his company’s profile. Jarvis denies this, describing Cryne as a “bitter man” who was “high on drugs” at the time. A lawyer for the Cryne family declined to comment.
So a self promoter who described a dying man as “bitter”. Nice one Alexander.
There is not a lot of information in the public domain about Alexander Jarvis’ successes and you’ve got to think that is because he hasn’t any. If you google his name and company the third best link is this messageboard.
It’s amazing how people are taking in by these snake oil sales types. Looking at the internet he left school at 16, was a painter and decorator and now is Managing Director of a company of 1!
I'm not sure how much Curran and Rose have paid for his advice but it looks like money wasted!

Not according to the EFL records he didn't......
Jarvis the baby faced assassin by the looks of it, seems like he specialises in taking people for a ride (Curran). If these people want to create a racket then they picked on the right Club. After what Bottomley etc have been up to we have guard dogs in every corner of the Club...that was very evident following the recent AGM/ EGM. The spotlight has been shining full blast for the last couple of years that’s why Bottomley etc are no longer in the building. We are about four miles from Bury, enough said.

Pictured with Oyston here. He's like an old bike. Gets around.

And also, someone who hasn't got the manners to take his hat off when indoors!
Jarvis has got a face that needs a slap.
Preferably with a wet fish.
Does this star Dick ever show up? Not that I'd waste a wet fish on him. These sort of people always need to hide behind something and I bet you would find it hard to meet anyone who remembers him fondly, if at all. I wonder if he was ever seen in Dobcross? FF wud know.

3. The NYT article in the OP noted how he'd upset Barnsley.
So that is Barnsley, Blackpool and Hull that we know about and he has been nowhere near the running.
Maybe he just cons unsuspecting people like Andy Curran so he can ride around with them all expenses paid and in some luxury rather than having a proper job.
The rich are very generous people and Curran probably thinks that Jarvis is there to help him when really Jarvis will just use Curran's wealth and connections, fail to get a deal done and then move onto the next rich sap and fleece them for a bit.

That Liverpool "office" is a rented mail box.
Deluded.
Judd... how very nice of you and I don't think we've had the pleasure. Fred would love to meet you one day. You are saying that The address on Mr Jarvis website, 110 Imperial Court, Exchange Street, Liverpool is a rented mail box? Well, well, well...
indeed it is young man. It is a shop called MBE (Mail Box Etc) where people that don't want to be found, hire a postal drop. You usually see fraudsters using such places.. shocking really. You pay an annual charge for someone to collect your mail.
So Mr Jarvis doesn't have an office at all... well I'm shocked

Fred Plane - lovely bloke. Spoke to him many a time at games. When I was a young 'un, must have been about 1977, Dale were away at Colchester, February/ March time. Me with me hippie hair half way down me back and Fred in a shirt and tie. We stopped at a pub on the way on the coach and I was illegally drunk. Fred had so many great stories to tell about times following Dale, and he was quite the philosopher as well. A true gent, Marjorie. If you say "Gong" he'll remember me. That is what our Rochdale AFC is all about. Our people.

Not officially, but he was a source of finance with the payback being his son getting a 3 year contract and a guaranteed first team squad place - despite being useless. He has now signed for Maidstone which is still probably above his level.
Don’t feel sorry for Curran. Him and his loud mouthed cronies used to rock up at away games in a fancy Roller - right Billy Big Bollocks. If he’s lost money, great. Couldn’t happen to a nicer bloke!

Good morning Sandyman... lovely to speak to you and fond fond memories indeed... Do you remember my Geoffrey... He was a Police Inspector at Rochdale...
Sadly Sandyman I fear for the future of our club and our memories. These criminals want our club for only one reason. I see we have some Swindon people on this forum. I'm going to have a word with them.

Good morning... lovely to hear from you if you are from Swindon. I am so sorry for the mess you are in and could I ask.... is this connected with Mr. Curran and his loud mouthed cronies? Would a Mr. Darrell Rose be one of those? He's a car dealer I'm told from Worksop. I am old and sadly I am not the fastest as I try and piece this together... Mr. Curran is from Essex ? Mr Jarvis is from Liverpool (well his postal box is) Mr Rose is from Worksop... What a tangled web they weave. What would they want with my football club?
Wasn't young Taylor Curran at Southend as well? So thats Swindon and Southend... there's a pattern here isn't there. Looks like we are next.
Stayalert indeed

Give my regards to your Gary, or 'Tank' as he was affectionately known. You've still got an amazingly sharp and perceptive mind Marjorie for someone so advanced on life's journey. I applaud your acuity. Remarkable. Keep up the good work.
