barryj Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 yeah. i think usmanov will try and buy another club or come join moshiri, he's not going to sit on the sidelines any longer being locked out of the board room. Maybe I'm clutching at straws but my guess was it's his last roll of the die to get control at Arsenal and now will move on. Maybe I'm being greedy but I'd like two billionaire owners.

aaron Posted May 24, 2017 Report Share Posted May 24, 2017 Usamov is a well known huge Arsenal fan, he wont give up that easily, he's in that for the long run unfortunately for us, plus he may not even want to go to another team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's worth more than 2 times kroenke. He won't sit on the sidelines. I think he will try and buy another club or come here. He isn't just going to accept kroenke ousting him. Otherwise he wouldn't be the business maverick he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c1982 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 (edited) Has anyone else had a thank you card off Bill for attending away games? Nice touch. It says there'll be an exclusive event in the summer too. Edited May 31, 2017 by c1982 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually Southampton's not much more than 100 miles away, could've done that. One of the games that I always went to in the old days when I lived in London but never been to St Mary's, just The Dell.

c1982 Posted May 31, 2017 Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 I decided to go to St Mary's (had never been) for the 3-0 in Martinez's era... unfortunately the 3-0 loss in the the freezing cold rather than the 3-0 win, a season later, in the glorious sunshine!!!

Romey 1878 Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 Just listening to Keane's EvertonTV interview and he pays thanks to Kenwright (as do a lot of players that sign for us). It's never been in doubt that Kenwright talk a good game and can be all gushy about the club, just keep him away from decision-making and it's a great move to keep him around.

Paddock Posted July 4, 2017 Report Share Posted July 4, 2017 I doubt our PR team would tell them what to say ? If people are paid enough money they will say what they are "asked" As I say- it's probably not that way but not beyond the realms of possibility. We all know Bill likes to be in the limelight. Just seems strange all these deals are flying into place so quickly when they weren't before yet Bills one of the deciding factors. Maybe it's Koeman who knows.

Maybe it's Koeman who knows. I'm pretty sure it's the contracts/negotiations team. Before it was bill and elstone and an intern (ok probably not an intern). I think after moshiri saw how shitty that went he replaced them with other people (Russian lad on the board possibly?) who are used to the moshiri business method. Like Romey said, bill is just the hype man and feel good local. I don't think he even talks money (I bet the Russian or some cutthroat business guy does).

StevO Posted July 16, 2017 Report Share Posted July 16, 2017 (edited) When there was talk of getting out of the ten year deal half way though. It wasn't some massive loop hole though, there was just a half way break clause. At the time there was social media uproar and the club posted an article about how good the deal really was.
