777 Partners / Whatever the hell you like

[Weebarra]

I don't think "serious buyers" will be any more interested in us if the investigation ends favourably for us than they were before the investigation was announced. We're a car crash of a club.

I hope Everton don't get any points deduction as that could scuttle the Everton FC, for good.

But I believe if unscathed frombtge enquiry it makes Everton a viable proposition for a buyer. I hope its not 777.

UTFTs!

I voted "not sure" first time around but it's a definate "no" this time. We can do much better than this bunch if any of the recent stories are true. Seems to me that they'd leach us for everything they could. At a time when middle East oil money is king... their should be no shortage of suitors without the agenda 777 could come with.

hope so m8.

 

[Weebarra]

He owes Usmanov at least £400m for the initial loan he borrowed and recent stories suggest Usmanov is looking for it back.

It seems so what a mess.

 

[Weebarra]

What’s not in doubt is 777 are lending us money at huge sums to cover ongoing costs and stadium costs in the really short term . This will still be required for at least another year and have they got the ability to keep doing this .
i can only see a fire sale coming up in January because by then we are going to need another injection and if they have their feet under the table it’s way of carrying on without borrowing or if the takeover fails then it again is the only way to buy us time . I can’t see anything but a sh@#show coming up around Xmas time and beyond

Good points raised, if only thd club would communicate its position to the Everton supporters.

 

[Weebarra]

Correct, Gordon was sold to put money in Moshiris pocket rather than for the sake of the squad. The Stadium isnt an altruistic endeavor, he plans to make more money from it than it costs him to build. Once he sells it hes not going to reimburse the money he has pulled aside these last two years to finance it. Hes using the playing squad as his bank to finance his future profits.

Scary indeed.
The future is not certain but we live in hope.
UTFTs!

 

[Weebarra]

Screwed if they take over
Screwed if they don't
We are screwed.

So it seems, but there's hope!
UTFTs!

 

[Weebarra]

Moshiri is/was never our owner though.
And never really gave a rats about Everton. It was all just a laundering exercise for some very dodgy money.

777 are not going to be any better.
Club is goosed bigly

Sadly it seems a few a miracle buyer, is needed.

Are 777 linked with the Uzbek?

 

[Weebarra]

Said it as soon as they were linked.

I don't want any yank venture capitalists anywhere near us.

100% agree. Lessons must be learned from the Mosh years.
He and BK have brought the club to its knees.

 

[Weebarra]

I’m sure I read somewhere that Dransfield is due to leave his job with 777

That's another twist.

 

[Weebarra]

It doesn’t really matter what we think, none of us know how serious things are. There’s no evidence Moshiri has the means to keep us afloat.

Loans piled on loans to pay wages isn’t exactly a sign of stability.

Yep, the clubs in [Poor language removed] Creek, and needs a miracle from the Blue Sky.

 

[Weebarra]

Still unsure really. Im not massively confident but also think that if the rumours are true about our financial situation, then anyone buying us isn’t going to want us in administration so considering we are pretty much there, they can only want us to improve.

I also think a lot of the new stories aren’t really anything new. It feels to me like a lot of bluster to keep us in the news in the lead up to the hearing. And the stories change daily as I’m sure yesterday it was £65m we had borrowed yet today it’s down to £40m.

Good perspective m8.

 

[Weebarra]

I don’t think it would be oblivion.

The more desperate Moshiri becomes, the more he will be forced to drop his price. Good people will bite if the price is right, but Moshiri wants his money back, not what’s good for the club.

I hope this is the case, and Everton can start fresh and clean, asap.
UTFTs!

 

[Weebarra]

I’m still a ‘not sure’ because the alternatives are not clear.

They seem like bad owners, but if the choice is between them and oblivion then it is what it is.

That's the issue, and no one knows the answers.

I just voted yes to being in favour of 777 taking over (in the poll).

I then clicked on the results and noticed I was in the severe minority (9 others) and felt outcast from the majority of fans.

I thought about changing my stance to "not sure" to keep my reputation intact, but what kind of man does that?

I then realised that I don't want to be a part of an "unsure" group who're too scared to take a stance on things, so that's them out.

And as for the "No" camp, I reckon all nine of us Yes men could batter all 119 of you "No heads", any day of the week.

What lad?! What!

Yeah, thought so.
