    Trigger reacted to RuffRob in Kevin Thelwell (Director of Football)   
    From what Dyche said in his latest interview Thelwell is very constrained in the deal that he can make, and pulled a bit of a Rabbit out of the hat tailoring a deal that got a £25M signing of Beto over the line.
    It is extreamely difficult to judge  DoF at this club. It sounded like both Walsh and Brands where pretty much dictated to by the owner or indeed the owners real  puppet master - Usmananov. Transfer business was shocking under their stewardship, but blame goes far beyond the pair of them.  
    Thelwell seems to be making a better fist of it, given what appears to be significant financial restrictions dealing with the aftermath of FFP and lose of significant sponser (although the sponser and owner interferance appeared to be hand in hand).
    Our biggest outlays - McNeil (22), Onana (20), Garner (21) Beto (25) and Chermiti (19) (ages when purchased) look to be decent transfers. The only real duck expenditure wise so far is Maupay, although we are still early days on a couple of these, I feel we are now consistently shopping the the right window now. Thelwell just need a bit more cash so the quantity of these types of signings can be increase and spread accross the pitch - i.e your Gnonto's etc. He is definately having to deal with one hand behind his back at the moment.

    We have dickhead fans, like every club, but the way some of them think it’s ok to act is beyond me. 
    The only saving grace is that this is a handful out of hundreds of thousands. Unfortunately the stupid things they do gets them attention. 
     
    We could do with the all together now campaign jumping on this too, as a strong collective, to condemn it. 
     
    Somewhere there is a huge banner with Moise Kean’s face on with “no to racism” on it. I’d like to see that at Goodison at the weekend. The face on the banner doesn’t matter, but the message does.

    That horrible twat, Hinchcliffe, and his horrible co-commentator, Bill Leslie, should apologise on air.
    Pair of pricks.

    Neither did I think you would look forward to signing Che Adam’s, nor did I think anyone else would for that matter😩

    I keep on saying it. He can't play because no matter when he has the odd good game, he CONSISTENTLY gives goals away through either incompetence or simply not being switched on.

    Or, to rephrase:
    Our midfield is not crying out for crap. That is McTominay.

    I’d take McTominay and 25m and buy a striker

    The manager and the director of football don’t think they are promising. That’s why they are being shipped out.

    I don't think our expectations are unreasonable. I think we all know we're a mid table team at this point.
    However, when there are teams like Brighton and Brentford who have A LOT LESS resources and money and are making MUCH smarter transfer decisions with much better scouting than us then I think we have every right to question how we've been running things and to demand to do much better.
    Given we're just out the top 6 of commercial revenue Everton should be the leader in innovation of data analysis and scouting to find the talent that the bigger clubs at this moment in time are missing because they are more likely to go for the ready proven known entities. This is ultimately the ONLY way we're going to build and to get in and become established in the very top tier again.

    His role is to grow commercial revenues. So sponsorships, everton online shop and city stores, matchday business entertaining packages etc 
    Your questions would be more for CFO/ Finance Director.
