777 Partners / Whatever the hell you like

What’s Goodison worth?

 

[Walken]

Isn't it because James Vaughan is effectively doing that role now?

It's not a good sign imo, I was given some hope by the restructuring being done behind the scenes on the football side. If that's being halted and impressive appointments are walking after less than a year then it doesn't sound great

Second rate appointment, never change Everton.

Incorrect, Moshiri starts funding it again, he has said this numerous times.

He’s said a lot of things. Why you’d believe anything he says at this point is puzzling.

 

[pfim]

This is when the league should step in to accelerate the vetting process for anyone who would like to step in.

The problem here isn't a lack of takers, and never has been. It's a lack of takers at Moshiri's valuation on his shares. Put his back to the wall, and he'll take less, because he ends up with nothing in administration.

It is in the interest of every other club owner in the league for Everton to be financially healthy. It improves their valuation. The longer they go without a top-flight club experiencing financial collapse, the more secure a prospective investment in any club appears.

That all made sense 10 months and 200 million ago. I’m not as optimistic now and if we’re relegated, forget about it.

If we get relegated, expect creditors to accept haircuts because it will beat administration. Rights and Media would be better off taking a lump sum that's larger than a first-year parachute payment, as an example. A club with a points deduction in danger of going down to League One is worth less than a Championship club, so working something out at the bargaining table before administration with a buyer is smart for everyone concerned.

The problem child would be 777, who probably can't afford to take one, but their standing at the back of the line won't give them much leverage. Someone would have to pay them more than they're likely to receive in administration, but no more, to secure their acquiescence.

End of the day, a prospective shotgun wedding still leaves a buyer with a club that has a shiny new stadium, minimal debt and the ability to spend to rebuild the roster. This is better than letting Moshiri loot the club while selling it to heavily indebted owners. We don't want administration, but being on the verge leads to a better outcome for the club and its fans than a sale to 777.

Couldn’t care less if thelwell leaves. Man spent best part of 50m on Beto and chermiti which is a massive reason why we are where we are.

We'll likely be in danger of a deduction anyway because of our financial situation

Man has to buy players via Klarna as well as trying to shift players for profit that he can't use.

It's almost an impossible ask (and we'd be on 35 points already)

He didn’t need to loan Danjuma for £3m when Callum Hudson-Odoi was available on a permanent for the same price. He didn’t have to pay £26m on Klarna for Beto when we already had Ellis Simms and Tom Cannon who would contribute exactly the same. He didn’t have to sign off on the signing of a 38 year old when there were other free transfers available.

Yep. Must be great going to another club, asking can you buy one of their better players but then telling them that you can’t actually give them any money straight away to buy a replacement. Easy

Their fee’s go up daily

 

[jazzy]

Less than that actually as you have to factor in the cost of dismantling the stadium which won't be insignificant.

Tbf including wages and agent fees we'll definitely have invested £50m in them over their contracts. Utterly shocking.
