  • Every time I’ve met Ravi he seems charming and is obviously well thought of within the club. Think he’d be perfect.

    😂😂😂 It’s not Rav. Just been putting together a few bits via him commercially and amongst the new set up and hearing a few speaking about it wondered people’s thoughts 😂👍. 
  • Dealt with him once in connection with hospitality and seemed very personable but couldn’ t comment on his credentials as a future CEO.
  • a fine man one of the shining lights in the dark days of RD 
  • Sent Ravi an email this morning and he replied 5 minutes later.Lovely impressive guy

    Ravi was very helpful to my Dad when we used the hospitality suites. He went out of his way to accommodate  Dad's needs in his old age and I'll always be very grateful for that.
  • Whenever I’ve emailed him , he’s been very polite and efficient, surely he’d be on linked in if he wanted a reference, not here?

    Ravi is a top bloke and very professional however I have never looked at him as a CEO for the club.

    Ravi is very good at his current job and should an opportunity arrive in the shape of say something like a COO's position then he would be a good fit.

    He's far better qualified than Meire was, although that doesn't necessarily mean he would be up to the job.

    CEO ?  No idea but im sure given his longevity with CAFC he should be the COO .I mean he knows how not to do it after watching Burger Boy.I

    He must have been there a good while now I'm sure I spoke to him about my 50th munch there and that's a good lump of time ago

    Only thing wrong with Ravi from the few time I've spoken to him is that he supports Millwall.

    My dealings with Ravi over the years have been positive.

    I can say with 100% conviction (knowing him well) that Rav is NOT and NEVER has been a Millwall fan.

    Good luck, Ravi, a huge loss for us and Orients gain.
  • Another really disappointing and unnecessary loss of a very competent and amenable bloke.

    Best wishes to Ravi, a real shame when we're losing some of our best staff to Welling & Orient.

    Yes, top bloke. His new job is a good fit for him and his commute will be easier.
    My understanding is that he is staying with us until the end of the season.

    Good luck in your new job Ravi, you did a fantastic job at Charlton. Thank you for all you did for Dad (Tom) and me when we used the hospitality suites.

    Dealt with him a lot during the Addicksdownunder days. Lovely bloke who went above and beyond a few times. Good luck in the new job. 
  • I’m gutted Ravi is leaving, better package at Orient and more staff, I get that, people move on, but it’s sad we’re haemorrhaging good staff, there’s not going to be much left at this rate.
