Yes, there is an Abahani Club that plays in a Surrey league, and they are the runners up in the division one this year. Some N Chowdhury (Nadif ?) and R Ullah (Mahmudullah Riyad ?) had become players of the season last year from this club.

Middlesex Premier league is an Asian Sunday league. Ekta club plays in the third division here. In the
result section of their website, Ahsan Ullah's name came up very frequently in short scorecards.
So, I guess those players did not lie to us.
Anyway, nothing to be excited yet, standard of those two leagues are probably even lower than that of the one Ash played. I hope those boys will find better clubs next year.
