777 Partners / Whatever the hell you like

[MrPerfectNot]

I think most of us can see through 777 I don't think any of us are so naive to think they're the right prospective owners. I just don't get why they would persevere and also keep pumping money in to us when they have lots and lots of troubles elsewhere. Doesn't make sense. Do they think we (Everton) or the Premier League are their meal ticket?

At this point you have to start (just like the ESA) questioning the owner and the PL to bring this to a close for the benefit of the football club. But I think that's a bit of a contradiction asking the Premier League and Moshiri to do what's best for Everton Football Club.

Part of keeping the (alleged) grift going is that you constantly have to have new partners (victims) - and for it to be profitable, they have to be bigger and bigger or else it dies off.

Im picturing bell and downing meeting up with cahill and a hoard of mega rich Qatari investors. All sunglasses, private planes and high fives and "lets do this"
Might be the sambucca shots im necking mind

Excuse my ignorance but who are these Bell and Downing blokes.

They are locals and have invested money via MSP into Everton, and can (if not repaid can take 51% stake)

Congratulations Everton, you've had a Wander*

It's the least Cahill could do for us (leverage his Qatari contacts to land us a good billionaire) after we turned him into a global superstar.

We just want a rich nutcase who’s bored, likes a challenge and hates the RS

Good letter from the shareholders, straight to the point. What good it will do , who knows.

I was talking to a couple of blues on the train earlier and they were saying how tedious it is to be a Evertonian. I couldn’t disagree with them.

It’s different from the 90’s because back then there was a sort of lingering hope that the club would get its act together and for a very brief period under Royle they did .

After that it’s been either a mess or little periods of hope and then back to mediocrity again. That takes its toll on a persons enthusiasm after so long imo.

If ever a football club needed a full on clear out not just on the pitch, it’s Everton.

I want this man dealt with.

@matty1878 time to keep your promise

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Any level headed opinions going?

Wrong forum for any of that mate.

Seeing the choice of buyers the first time from Moshiri, he would probably end up finding a billionaire on the government "no fly" list.

….seems like he only deals with ‘wrong-uns’, it would explain a lot.

So what do you have to do to actually fail a fit and proper person's test?

Seems you're allowed to murder journalists, launder money, drug traffic and commit fraud

Have I missed anything?

You arent allowed to commit fraud.

All the other things seem fine.

As far as I know 777 havent had any fraud convictions? Im probably wrong.

You can't invade another country or be mates with somebody invading another country, that's one thing on their list

 

[stamullenblue]

To the best of our knowledge, it isn't. Rights and Media and MSP between them are secured on anything the club has of value. That doesn't leave anything for 777 to attach to a loan.

ok. so could we just tell them to sling there hook like they seem to do doing to other people ?
