Lads and lasses,
I need to be very careful what I say here for confidentiality.
A friend of mine( kopite) works for Deloitte and 777 are one of his clients.
He has just provided me with some reassuring words after me going into a meltdown.
When I questioned their funds he said without doubt they will have co investor.
That’s as much as I can probably say on the matter.

A mate of mine works for another large firm in this area, and he told me his firm, and all the big ones, flat out refused to audit Everton's accounts, hence we ended up with a lower tier firm doing it in the end, and we were probably lucky to get them.

Not one big firm wanted to touch us due to Moshiri and his associations with Usmanov. They simply did not want the exposure to dealing with a sanctioned individual, and they simply did not trust Moshiri to provide any truthful information. He is persona non grata in UK financial circles.

This is why I've been saying for months and years ANYTHING that gets their poison out of our club is welcome. At the moment we are only functioning at all through luck and some blind eyes being turned. No matter who comes in they day they are out will be a good day.

Also worth noting, everyone very quick to point to Sevilla and the trouble they're in despite 777 having a minority stake. Since they began investing in Sevilla in 2018, they've won the Europa League twice and had several top 4 finishes.

Now do the clubs they have majority stake

 

[Pabbers]

Yer they are definitely the only two options available

Thats how this social media / online thing works though......1 extreme or the other.

You said 1, and I said the other.

I was thinking that as well. I can imagine he will just say not his business and I have no clue what is happening, I just manage football matters

They may be complete cowboys but it could not get any worse. That's something at least.

Oh it can...

God I hate press conferences, just mundane pre scripted no BS.

He will say something like “I know there’s a lot of noise over the takeover but it’s my job to prepare the team for the weekend”

Blah blah blah

Subject to fit and proper tests etc it’ll all be done and dusted by the end of the year!

We can only hope for the best now.

I don't know exactly what they will bring and they will need to outline it all in due course. I will judge them on what they do, not what they say, and not what the initial perceptions are.

They appear to buy stakes in struggling clubs so the truth is that we will only be able to tell how succesful they have been after a few years. For example, Hertha are struggling but they've only been involved since the spring. Where they are in 2 years will tell us much more.

And yes some of the comments about the commercialisation of fans have been totally ridiculous and clearly I don't support those comments or ideas. But this is a big enough club, with a vocal enough fan base and strong enough traditions, to push back strongly on any attempts to impose things at this club which are not acceptable to the wider Everton community.

This is the biggest club they will own, and they will quickly realise how they need to align their values and objectives with the values and traditions of the fan base and the local area. If they fail to do that, they won't be successful. There is huge potential at this club if the right people come along. Despite how down I am about Everton right now, I still firmly believe that. It's up to new owners to improve every area of the club, both on the pitch and especially the business side. If they can get everyone pulling in the same direction, we have a chance of this working.

It surely has to be a snap decision now, we need to know what they plan to do with us. It is more important to see positive impactful changes immediately rather than small deltas two years down the line. With us being the largest club they will own also means we may be stripped down to our underwear.

we really need a bawling my eyes out reaction for this forum...

 

[Armaghtoffee]

What can we realistically expect now?

If you’re hungry and someone offers you a dogsh!t butty do you just eat it no questions asked

It looks like that “ dogshit butty“ is staying on for now going by Moshiri’s goodbye statement, that’s if the deal is ratified by the FA which could take quite a while, until then the cockaroach that is Kenwright is clinging on!
