777 Partners / Whatever the hell you like

[Muggins]

Good ole Bill invested the Arteta money and left it in a trust fund for a future stadium build.

Well.

Stranger things have happened for sure.

Goodbye frying pan. Hello massive apocalyptic fire.

I do find it a bit odd that he always posts anything negative about 777, does seem a bit of an agenda at play

2 points? Amateurs. Come back when it's double digits.

Seriously, these guys probably handed in their homework a week late in grade school.

Calling them a Mickey Mouse organization wouldn't be fair to Mickey. At least he's minted.

Well it's typically about transfer bans and points deductions. They've put themselves on the agenda.

I maybe looking at the glass half full...but I think until their takeover of us is finalised, the other clubs will suffer.

Think they're having to juggle finances across the board until it's done. Especially when they have to pump money into them. The ones they don't have to, run fine.

Whether that will fix it, I don't know.

It seems to be a set play with them to pay everything late but cough up before there are any real consequences. I don’t really understand it as a policy and it’s certainly not one I’d like to see from Everton.

I’d prefer owners that had enough money not to need to juggle them

It's because theyve not got a pot to piss in and they're scrambling for the money

They look like clowns. If this is how they run the business side, we're in trouble.

I'm trying to take a fair look at this, but how many takeovers have had this much negative information come up about the prospective owners? I'm not talking about things like the Saudis and human rights etc. That's different (and worse). This is showing us how they run similar businesses (football clubs) and how poorly organized they are and how little they value auditors, tax agencies and governing boards (ironic given their position on the ECA). And just the sheer number of issues they've had? It boggles the mind.

Again, how many takeovers have had these types of stories come out? Don't remember any about Todd Boehly. None on Ratcliffe. ALK Capital? Shad Khan? Bill Foley?

That’s obviously a factor but they always seem to pay these bills a few days late- for the sake of a few days they could surely organise their affairs in such a way as to meet deadlines and save themselves the negative publicity.

Exactly. It’s a lack of professionalism and when the PL clearly values the ability to pay your way over any moral concerns it’s a huge own goal to have stories like this keep coming out while the approval process is ongoing.

If they’ve already bitten off more than they can chew maybe it’s time to withdraw and get the existing clubs on an even keel first.

Of course. But when the price is a £1billion valuation with some horrific books and dodgy history....theyre not exactly queuing up

There's about 10 people that took over Chelsea. Boehly just led it. Ratcliffe is worth £20billion and is only taking 25% so that was never gonna be hard .

Alk, Khan, Foley all bought their clubs for a fraction of what ours is currently at.

If Ratcliffe wanted Everton, this would sail through. The fact no one on his level has even had firm interest to take over Moshiri's russian linked cesspit says a lot.

Saudis etc...its all down to money and if they have it x 2. 777 don't have it in real terms but will no doubt flip books to make it happen.
