Xu Ke has refused to answer any of the 38 questions asked by minority shareholders at West Brom, according to The Liquidator.

It is reported that the sole director of the WBA Group has cited confidentiality and that those asking the questions are simply not entitled to the answers.

The Daily Mail reported recently that Shareholders For Albion had sent Ken and Guochuan Lai a letter with numerous questions as they prepared to meet in China.

They wrote: “Breaking News: The sole director of WBA Group, Xu Ke (aka Ken) has refused to answer any of the 38 questions recently posed by the club’s minority shareholders.

“Claiming that they aren’t entitled to the information and citing confidentiality.”

Wow.

This is an update that will surprise exactly zero West Brom fans when they read up on the news.

It is shocking the lack of clarity surrounding the ownership at The Hawthorns, with Lai and now Ke simply hiding away and doing nothing about the mess at the club.

The fact that there were 38 questions tells a bigger story and the fact that they are all being left unanswered show that there is no care about the trouble on the horizon.

Carlos Corberan nearly pulled off the unthinkable by getting this Baggies squad to the playoffs, but another year in the Championship is only going to add to the issues.

With parachute payments running out and big interest loans being taken, it is no surprise that questions are being asked, with no answers coming.

All eyes are on what happens next in this terrible never-ending story, no doubt.
