Makes me laugh this fanbase.

Mass protests and demanding the owner sells and the board leave.

New ownership ready to come in and pitchforks at the ready cause they're not Saudi's with a bottomless pit of money.

We deserve exactly what we're getting.
Not sure why you think this with the current owner board ect and what they have done to the club. Any new ownership us fans will be worried and with the history of 777 has got a mixed result. Imo us fans have a terrible time. I dont kno enough to say if this is a bad deal or not. We all just want to see some progress now even if it gets us taking small steps moving up, we deserve to not worry about money, getting done by ffp, board going against the fans. What other team has had to deal what we have ij the league, would be nice if we could just get back to just worrying about the football not all the rest

Nothing to do with the bottomless pit of money.

There's just a huge whiff about them and how they've conducted their business elsewhere.

We fit their model though. If they manage it well and keep us afloat, pitchforks will be left for the time being.

Moshiri had no other options to go.
 
He's a douche for saying it, but everyone believes it.

They are no different than any other people investing in clubs.
Yeah
I appreciate you may be right,
For me personally it’s a step too far .
Getting scammed is one thing.
But when a person shakes your hand and tells you , while flashing that shark like artificial American smile , “hi , I’m about to scam you. Have a nice day sir !”, I take it as my cue to leave .
 

Well do we want to ‘monetised ?
I certainly don’t.
I resent that demeaning view of a clubs supporters.
I accept though that many will be happy to buy substandard financial products et al as long as they have the club crest on.
But the art of scamming is to exploit your hopes , and that pretty much sums up the mission statement of this bunch of shady operatives.
Personally I think they represent the straw that will break this aging dromedary’s back.
To be fair though 777 themselves are buying a substandard product with the Everton crest on it.
 
I wonder where the backing for 777 is coming from, I cannot help but feel that we have maybe not completely finished with Usmanov but of course that is something that will be buried deep and nothing will be known until the Russian/Ukraine war is resolved. It is hard to understand how an organisation like 777 can find access to such an enormous amount of money.

I think this is the biggest question.
 
FWIW my tuppence from the other day: these clowns cant possibly own all Everton with what they have. So this has to be a front for another party?
I would suggest looking into the KKR buyout of RJR Nabisco for a bit. They bought a whole Fortune 20 company, worth orders of magnitude more than this football club, without much more than two nickels to rub together of their own money. The story didn't end well for them, other than fame, but they did it.
 
To put it simply, your house has a debt on it (mortgage) and I want to buy your house.

I get a mortgage to buy the house. I give you the money, you pay off the debt (mortgage) and keep whats left. My mortgage company put a charge on the title deeds of my house to protect their money.


However, we are not at the stage yet. We are at, I have looked at your house and want to buy it. I put in an offer to buy it and you say yes.

I now have to go away and get the mortgage company to front the money and they want to make sure they will get the money back i.e I can afford to pay the monies back.

In the above scenario though, what is missing, is the premier league are yet to ratify that 777 will pass the fit and proper persons test.
No, no , I know that.

Its just for the purpose of those that thought Moshiri is walking off with £500 million. Which he isn't.

The concerns are warranted in my opinion as they have a sordid past of financial dodginess with accusations of fraudulent transactions and other legal improprieties along with the fact they just proposed a scheme for the Genoa fans to fund a 5 million training ground as they don't possess the funds to muster it themselves.
 
TBF they aren’t talking about monetising the existing fan base at GP; there’s no more money there.

What they are probably looking to do is increase commercial revenue by getting the % of tv revenue back off the odd Cheshire outfit and growing revenues elsewhere. The new ground helps massively with that.
No they are talking about getting more money out of the supporters.
That is their entire modus operandi.
To be fair to them , they are totally transparent about it .
It’s the only thing they are honest about .
