Don't understand this and it's repulsive to me but everyone does this sort of thing. And it's not always quality (although usually is) but design as well. MLS and NHL are all over this--and maybe it's a fanatics initiative--but the if you don't want to pay $200 for an official kit/shirt/sweater...
Ok, but what about the homage to Goodison that must be in every kit, shorts, socks, training gear, knick knack, and digital signature from now until eternity? Does the new kit have that?
Ty for all comments; not challenging you but following up on this, not much info is available (he's not on the Forbes list). Estimated wealth is $3B+ but not sure how much of that is liquid. Part of the DuPont family tree but probably not close to that money. Interested to see what he's actually...
Ty; with regard to "risk taking" this can mean a lot of things in a lot of contexts, but interested if you have more to say about this. (@Alan Whittle made a similar comment.)
For context, Moshiri spent a lot of money on "sure bets" but then his money dried up like an 82 yo whose run out of...
Who is on his list? My list is simply Mark Cuban, but then I don't know anything about most potential owners. There's probably between 2 and 3 thousand billionaires in the world and the reality is most of them we don't know and most have some dirty laundry, but a lot of them would make good...
If and let's be clear this is IF there were such a terrible owner, would it kill any journalists to write a damning story to be published in a major newspaper about how terrible these owners are?
What is the Owner's and Director's test anyway? Can someone study for this or is it like a handshake, you get one attempt and the judgment is subjective?
Right, this makes sense in a traditional economic model--if you walk into a car dealer and say, "I have to buy a car today" you're not going to get the best possible price. But the market for buying and selling football clubs is not a tranditional marketplace and who knows what else is going on...
Based on knowing his name for 5 minutes and watching one video of him ranting for 90s, it does not surprise me at all that he likes to have conversation/negotiations in the full public eye. He seems like a straight shooter.
That said, who knows what is really happening and who knows what this...
In his last 2 years at Everton Barkley had 13g + 16a in 74 appearances.
Since leaving, over 7 years at Chelsea, Aston Villa, Nice, and Luton he's had 17g +16a in 141 appearances
