Palfy Posted September 23, 2023 Report Share Posted September 23, 2023 1 hour ago, Shukes said: I don’t think any are to be honest. As fans we all want the best for our club. I clapped Lukaku for the goals he scored, nothing to do with him wanting out and making demands. For that he received my criticism. I have paid to watch us while we are at the top, and I’m paying to watch us while we’re at the bottom. Because I am a massive Everton fan. I don’t support Bill, as I didn’t support any other chairman before. It’s always been the club for me. If we get relegated…. I’ll be supporting a championship team. If we get relegated again…. I’ll be supporting a league one team. I’ll continue supporting the club I love till the day I die I guess. Starting with the resurgence this afternoon….. COYBs!!!!! Let the climb begin!!! I new we could rely on you for some positivity mate plaidharper, Shukes and Matt 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet I feel if the 777 deal doesn’t go through we are doomed anyway, our owner on paper has said no more money will be coming from him, and Usmanov the true owner if truth be known wants his money back, plenty of dark days ahead for Evertonian’s to come worrying about what the future will bring.

Shukes Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 It’s a done deal already mate. Just going through the motions now. They have already said the finances are in order. That article above is another no news. Happens all the time on football when a team misses a payment. They know it doesn’t make any difference during a period of no transfers.

The only way they get through this is with fan engagement else their investment ends up bankrupting them. I think there's a lot more to be done before it's a done deal.

Moshiri, for all his generosity, is fucking clueless when it comes to the football business side. His due diligence, by extension, is meaningless. We're reliant on the league saving us from this, the same league that held our hand on transfers then put us up for an audit. There needs to be another investor in the wings.

Bailey Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 I would be amazed if they didn't get approval. The league don't give a shit about their past history with other clubs. In fact, I imagine they will see that experience as a positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For him to agree to sell a club without even checking they have the money to buy it would be beyond ridiculous. It’s the basic rule when making large sales. Unless he is totally useless and has been carried all these years by big U! But then that would also show what a complete Buffon Usmanov is as well. Were doomed! COYBs!

Shukes Posted September 30, 2023 Report Share Posted September 30, 2023 Most the clubs they own were in much worse state when they took over. They have stabilised clubs. Even the article above is saying that the debts are from the previous owners and deals that had been struck that hadn’t come into fruition. When I read about them, they don’t seem anywhere near as bad as the press want them to be. Not great by any means…. But hardly the company they have been made out to be.

Because checking someone’s bank statement is the same in any sector mate. I would be more than surprised if he didn’t think you needed to check that when making a multi million sale. Selling a mountain bike for £50 maybe, but not a premier league football club. You got the cash mate? Ye honestly I’ll bring it with me…. Sound, clubs yours. Hi mate, that cheque you wrote seems to have bounced, could you resend it please mate….. must be your bank account, cheques fine! Actually now I wrote that…. I think that’s pretty much how Everton work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a rich snob like Palfy, but a proper cowboy! It’s common to ask to see the funds when signing off on large builds for us. Never used to do it until I started on a business coaching course. But they made me start doing it. But your right, Football is a complete different kettle of frogs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
