    I think, realistically, with 777, we can look forward to, at best, midtable mediocrity for time to come...which is better than relegation scraps!
    I mean, that's what we've been for most of the last 30 odd years anyway.
    I just hope there is a plan that involves reigniting the youth set up...I find it very hard to believe we don't develop players good enough for a bottom of the table scrap...and a young manager with a vision...that we, as fans, allow to develop for more than 12-18months.

    If we weren't a cash cow, or rather a potential cash cow, there's no way an investment firm would be looking to buy us, let alone put up with all the shit around the acquisition. These groups, and 777 by its own admission, buy clubs to strip them to the bone and rebuild from scratch, assuming they can continue to load debt onto the club a la Glazers.
    Seeing them asking for extensions to gather the cash because they don't have a positive cash flow isn’t fear mongering, but it sure as hell is scary. The issues at their other projects, like not paying players, isn't fear mongering, but again is extremely concerning. The shiny "crown jewel" quote is nothing more than propaganda that any sane person representing an interested party would say and it may well be true, until the next opportunity presents itself.
    It's not a matter of fear mongering, it is a matter of seeing the warning signs and being wary. They will be hard pressed to not improve us but the cost to the club is going to be high and I don't mean monetarily.
    "777 Partners have been sued by multiple organizations for unpaid debts and contract breaches with lawsuits describing their financial practices as a "house of cards"[28][29][30] and a "sprawling fraudulent enterprise".[31][32]"
    Just fills ya with hope, dunnit

    I hear a lot of scare mongering about what 777 Partner are going to do once they aquire us.
    Everton are not a cash cow, our revenue is pretty poor in PL terms for anybody at the moment and I don't see how a 'quick buck' is going to be turned by buying something for more that it's potentially worth, and then 'selling off' the best part of the business. 
    Evertons biggest issue over the past 5-6 year (and beyond) is that its not been properly run as a world class PL footballing business.  
    To me surly the best way to make money out of a poorly run football club is to actually run the club properly and increase the Everton brand globally.
    We have seen club run by some very nieve owners who have thrown money around all over the place, with it pretty much all wasted.
    I am fairly sure 777 Partners will.be putting their top sports business  people to work on the Everton project. It will not be about how much money they can throw at the project, I will be about making Everton a good or great footballing business.
    Although, I say it with a degree of caution, I think the 777 Partnership takeover has the potential to improve this club massively - time for new blood and new approach.

    In the middle with Gana picking up the scrappy bits.
    We need 'a Gana' in there aswell as 'a Gomes'.
    Onana ain't doing it. Garner is...way off boil. I think Garner has more to him...just not alongside Onana.

    unfortunately that's a big only. it's go to the point now that teams smell blood around Everton. Forest and Luton will be look at us winnable games. 
    fucking hell do we miss Gana when he doesn't play.

    If they get in then be prepared to be milked for everything you have, mate.
    It'll be the fans that pay for their takeover, not them.

    Or they've pumped so much money into a company that's clearly going bankrupt and they can't afford to lose that investment...
    They're keen because it was a potential cash cow for them. But at this point, if they get to take over before the summer transfer window, they'll be selling everything they can to reclaim their losses.

    Needs to work harder...all of them...
    Limp through.
    We need to show more fight than Forrest & Luton.
    After a 6nil drubbing and Forrest at home next, 3 home games on the bounce, they really now need to shake this off, and any self pity, distraction around points taken off and all that, and fight fuckin hard!

    6-0 eh.
    Nows not the time to argue over who's this, who's that.
    This team needs every single fan behind them...as painful as that is...to help them limp over the line.
    We shouldn't be losing 6-0 to anyone. Let alone an 'average' Chelsea.
    Fuck all is going to change in terms of tactics and players so we are just gonna have to rally and hope 🙏

    But he won't.
    If we've seen anything about Dyche during this torrid run it is that he keeps going back to the same old same.

    The only thing Dyche can do is rip that team. If he starts the next game with the likes of Young, Doucoure, Coleman & Onana it shows he is actually okay with that performance. Beto was honking but the lad was at least honest.
    Our problem is our players who have a slither of talent don’t seem to care so much & our players who are yard dogs (of which there is a few) do care.

    I'm no fan of Dyche but you give Guardiola the job tomorrow and we're not pulling any trees up. The club is absolutely riddled with fuckery from top to bottom, and this is just a by-product of how bad we are.

    Just stuck my testicles in the fridge door and slammed it shut which funnily enough was more enjoyable than this shite. 
    Spare a thought for the people that went down to London, on a Monday and paid to watch this in the flesh. They'd be much better staying at home and buying a fridge.

    “We should be on 35 points and I would be getting measured differently, myself and the team and the players and the club in spite of having a tough run."
    Sean Dyche insists he'll continue to work his hardest no matter what's thrown at him or Everton.
    He's right to be fair.
    Such tough and unique circumstances.
    He and the lads need to dig in deep. End the season well. Re-assess.
    Wouldn't blame him if he thought 'Fuck this, I'm off....'
    Don't think he's the quitting type.
    (Mind, don't think any managers are when they know they'll get a fat pay off if they get sacked 😂😂)
