Paddock Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 Fuckinell mate don't you get fed up of smelling shit constantly I get fed up of reading it like the quote above. You've been waiting to post something like that since I disagreed with you over Mirallas. What a plank If you read it again properly I said it was a decent back and forth and both put excellent points across but I couldn't decide what side of the fence to fall on with Kenwright. If that's smelling shit then no, the answer to your question is no I don't get fed up of smelling shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 (edited) Seriously you should check out some facts first. Everton have debt? Well so do others. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/may/01/premier-league-accounts-club-by-club-david-conn There is nothing that special about our debt compared to others. Some have more, some less and this holds true both absolutely and as a debt/turnover ratio. You are contradicting yourself and don't even realise it. First you say Kenwright could have sold to the first fella who came along and then you claim no-one wants to buy the club (you must claim this since you object to me calling BK a liar for saying no-one wants to buy Everton - so either people *do* want to buy Everton and BK is a liar or no-one wants to buy in which case he couldn't possibly have sold to the first buyer since there's no-one). You actually said there are no buyers, several times: So how could he have sold to the first fella? Are there buyers or are there not? Could you make up your mind? As for swapping places, you yourself asked if I would swap places with some of the clubs: Why did you ask that if you didn't mean it? I know this is just a red herring you use to try to deflect the discussion. It has nothing to do with whether there are buyers or not. There clearly are so you try to change the subject. As for lying, well he has done it. You didn't see the Kirkby ballot paper? You haven't heard of Fortress Sports Fund (which disappeared once BK got rid of Gregg)? http://harrrps.blogspot.fi/ I give in its like talking to a 5 year old Edited April 1, 2015 by duncanmckenzieismagic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I'll say it again 100% fact, Everton were number 1 choice for Lerner. Aston villa then West Ham. BK was approached by Lerner and told not interested without so much as a meeting. Now you can get into the Lerner good/bad debate. But as much as moyes did my nut in I would like to point out that in his early days he had identified essien, Cech etc and let's be honest the likes of moutinho wouldn't have been 120 page threads, we would have had the money. Hummels, Hazard just to add two more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I'll say it again 100% fact, Everton were number 1 choice for Lerner. Aston villa then West Ham. I don't think that's ever been confirmed as fact, certainly not as far as I can see searching the net. Lot's of speculation and "Doug Ellis told me..." but no concrete proof.

Lot's of speculation and "Doug Ellis told me..." but no concrete proof. Usually you don't get confirmation until a deal is done, so you quite rarely hear about failed attempts. In this case admitting it would have been bad for both parties ("Kenwright, why didn't you sell" and "So, Randy, you are saying Villa wasn't your first choice?").

Hafnia Posted April 1, 2015 Report Share Posted April 1, 2015 I know the person who found out "first hand" - they put it up on 2 websites and they were taken down within 30 minutes. Of course it was never going to come out as fact. Regardless of whether i'm believed or not - Does anyone actually believe that Everton have never been approached by a credible buyer? Lerner is the only one that I know of - concrete. For that reason alone it would not surprise me in the slightest if others have been rejected. The most galling "rumour" is that Sheikh Mansour was interested and fronted by Amanda Staverley - would he have bought us instead of Man City? I don't think so, but by all accounts he never got the chance to investigate enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 its funny isn't it, its only transfer time that people look at kenwright and co. No players = Kenwright gets slated.... £28m Lukaku = Kenwright congratuated The reality is this - the board have not put any money into the club, the recruited an incompetent Chief Exec - we have no corproate perfromance that indicates any real solid planning. The club needs to be sold to someone who has the money to get us a new stadium - simple as that. Kenwright and co have failed to do this.

"I was desperate to move that sponsorhsip to Everton. I met with our media agecy in London but got a deck v thick as to why we cant inevst in Everton. The main things were a) they are not a corporate club they don't need a new stadium. The big commercial companies having boxes is what's important, he says, "that's not this club."

c1982 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I have often thought of Kenwright as similar to Doug Ellis. I'm not sure I like the Everton don't need a new stadium bits but to be fair under Kenwright, we don't, it'd probably be a massive risk with the corporate/commercial short fallings. If we did finally get a new stadium then they'd have to be massive hierarchical change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 It really is as simple as this:- If we are growing our TV revenue at the same rate as our opponents - then there are no real advantages. What was a £10m player will become a £15m player - what was a salary of £50k a week will become £80k a week. Yes, we can clear our debt easier - thats a given. But we need to commercially grow as a club. Commercial opportunities:- Kit sponsorship - awful Match day reveneue - outsourced - poor lower table General sponsorship - garbage Ground - Over 20 years with no improvement to capacity or obstructed views Merchandise - pathetic, kitbag and one club shop In short, Richard Scudamore and co are credited with being the people who are keeping this club financially sound.

It's not the role of company directors to put money in (initial investment aside). I'd venture to say that Phillip Carter never put money into the club, though he did a great job as chairman. According to the Institute of Directors their role is to.. determinine the company’s strategic objectives and policies; monitor progress towards achieving the objectives and policies; appoint senior management; account for the company’s activities to relevant parties, e.g. shareholders. The managing director/chief executive is responsible for the performance of the company, as dictated by the board’s overall strategy. He or she reports to the chairman or board of directors. And they'll take a hefty salary for that which our directors haven't. The minted owner putting in millions is a completely different scenario to where we are.

Hafnia Posted May 1, 2015 Report Share Posted May 1, 2015 Missread the £350k for elstone, the sickening thing is that it won't be far off. That clown has cost the club millions with his shockingly poor business decisions. I take it Robert Earl gets £350k on top of the ridiculous interest that the club are paying him through the vibrac loan? we have some payday loan with a director of the club (just not directly in his name).

For not putting any money in, actually. And I've said before, I don't blame BK for that, everyone knows he hasn't got the money but the other board members? That's a different story; they're minted. How do they expect to make progress and achieve objectives if they aren't willing to put anything in to help make that happen? I can only assume their objectives are to achieve absolutely nothing. Then another role of theirs is to appoint senior management - well, if their choice of Elstone (and others that have come before him) are anything to go by then they're completely fucking useless. But, yeah, again, they want to make a lot of money out of this club when/if it's sold. Totally understandable when they've done so much for this club!
