Wigan Athletic chairman Dave Whelan has slammed Blackburn Rovers' new owners, the Venky's Group.
Anuradha Desai, the chairman of Venky's, sacked Sam Allardyce last month and put Steve Kean in charge.
But Whelan blasted: "It's strange what's happened there. I know the old owners of Blackburn.
"I have great affection for the club. It was really odd when they sacked Sam Allardyce. One thing he gets is success."
And Whelan lashed out at agent Jerome Anderson - who it is claimed has been advising Venky's.
He added: "Hopefully the club will settle down and stop taking notice of this agent they've got."
