Tell me about it ! lol
I take it Farthead didn't turn up at Wimpy for his meeting with FAB.
What I have taken from all this is I have no idea why Farhad actually wants to sell the club, unless of course he was fully funded by Usmanov and now that cannot continue.
However if he is a billionaire in his own right which places like Forbes say he is, then surely he is better to come out and say ‘I have made some mistakes with transfers, directors of football, doing silly interviews with Jim White and promising things I didn’t deliver on, but we are about to move into a brand new stadium and I want to be here. I will not sell the club now, I may do in the future but I am fully behind Sean and his team and I am committed to keeping Everton going until the day someone wants to come in and take it over.
I cannot understand why he actually wants to go. No Kenwright no DBB, just hire a chairman, tell him to get a board of directors and make sure they are all football people and just be what a good owner usually is, in the background.

He doesn't like Evertonians and they don't like him.

Probably realised that he’d get more enjoyment by setting fire to millions of pounds in his garden rather than just seeing it disappear into the black hole of Evertons finances

I think I would spontaneously combust if this scenario took place.
What if he said he was really, really sorry?

He would need to go through a full public humiliation ritual in the centre circle at Goodison, broadcast live around the world, before he can start to begin to atone for what he’s done.

The objective of football teams as companies is to make as much money as possible purely so that you can spend even more than you just made.
On the basis he has zero affinity for Everton, and seemingly zero interest in football, he would have made far far more money and had more enjoyment dumping his millions into a NatWest children’s ISA. And that will never change. Clubs are billionaires vanity toys, or vehicles for self/cross promotion. He accidentally ended up owning one, apparently without any clue why he would want to. And certainly with no idea how to.

Looking at turning the ship and actually turning the ship are two different things. And then there's the fact that the ship was turned in completely the wrong direction in the first place. Set on course to sink really.
Not owing much money out in transfers is nice but doesn't mean the potentially catastrophic amount of loan debt pouring out of the club should be disregarded. And building a 'billion pound stadium' isn't a much to shout about when the initial forecast was for a £300M stadium.
we need someone very rich and care free
We've had rich and careless so we're not far off.
