Yeah, maybe. I'm no Tory but maybe I'm so used to 'ROI' that I can't see it from any other perspective now. Kenwright used to run the club / fund transfers by borrowing money and effectively giving 'ROI' to other parties through interest...

Not an endorsemenrt of 777 - but you do wonder about some fans expectations when they complain about owners taking income from clubs. That's the only reason anybody runs a business. I guess moneybags from the middle-east have distorted things a...

Leverage, asset-stripping and consolidating debt. Going well then. I'm scared to point out any silver-linings in case somebody exploits them for their own profit.

The contrast for me recently was talking to a mate who's a Palace fan - he was telling me how terrible they were this season - then they go and win at Anfield. I was saying we were worse and then we go and lose 6-0. There isn't really a...

There is a chance he does something to try and protect his investment - but he's spent many months trying to make Everton somebody elses problem and has seemed incredibly reluctant to put a penny more into the club.

I assume in his head he has already sold the club - hence 777 paying for everything at the moment.

This is a trick question ? ;)

I think people are still in the Bill Kenwright 'there's no money' where we'd find it to get a new manager. This is an 'Absent owner no money' where there is literally no cash - or manager that would want to come anyway. Only option would be...

Well, i think it is fair to say, he got that one wrong. No money to replace him though.

I don't think it is a particularly big if - we have been scraping relegation for a few seasons and if it doesn't happen this season - what happens when we sell our best players next ? Put that in the context of some organisation thinking about...

I wasn't clear - I mean precarious that Everton will be receiving it every year for the long-term - ie. we may well be relegated and not receive it.

To be honest, I think Bill has left us pretty much in the same situation as he had us in for his tenure - scraping by with huge debts stopping any sort of ambitious spending. Moshiris plan seems to have been the same - with some hope that...

Agreed. Especially interest rates going up has meant an investment like a risky football club is much less attractive. After all, you can probably get 4%+ on your capital just sticking it in a bank at the moment. From a boring business pov -...

The stadium possibly - but TV rights depend on PL status - which has been looking precarious for a few seasons.

To get the lower interest rate I think you'd need some sort of guarantor - problem is right now is that our credit risk must be extremely high. I guess the point is - the loans / rates right now represent the situation we are in.
