Carlo At Everton.

Is it proven to be blag? Just seemed to specific to be blag upon first read.

Searched el pias and couldn’t find it.

These were the good times Kenwright talked about. As a fan getting Ancelotti was a trophy win in itself, the excitement and hope for times better.

I can understand why people say we'll should have just hired Moyes instead, if we had though we'd still be awaiting a win at Anfield/Emirates where we'd turn up hoping for a nil-nil and effectively be beat before we even kicked off. So screw it, it was worth it, despite how badly it ended.

You could see he is a very good manager. You could also see he'd been sold a lie by moshiri. He was basically looking to escape the madhouse from the January before he left. The players knew it and we tanked.

Carlo and James was the dream the club aspired to be.

But it was like renting a Lamborghini that you can't afford and had to send it back

Was nice for a bit but was always a dream

Pity it’s a blag article; I suppose all concerned have signed non disclosure agreements, so we’ll never find out the truth.

There's tough and then there is what we were left with. If you were Carlo and had the pick of your clubs, would you stick around when your summer budget allowed 1.5 million for Gray and Townsend on a free?

And yet Benitez got slaughtered for taking over the club run by a nest of snakes.

I'm not so sure, in January the figures might have looked decent as we were in the hunt for CL nevermind Europa. I think also rather than Moshiri's lies it was a gamble.

He was banking on getting Ancelotti, giving him what he wanted in the summer (James/Allan) and hoping that would lead to Europe, better commercial deals, the higher league placement (had we got 5th instead of 10th that's an extra £10 million alone) and all of a sudden we would have had a bigger budget of between 50 and 80 million and possibly could have kicked on again.

But we tank and covid killed the commercial deals and the transfer market, so extra money that might have been around just isn't and we're left in a worse place than anyone could have possibly foreseen. At that point it's easy to see why Ancelotti didn't want to stay around as the belt tightening we've had to do and yet that still wasn't enough to avoid a penalty, would have had his hands tied.

Sounds like an orgy of ego's, only one of which had earned the say.

That's pretty much all of football.

Whether the article is true or not - it was a brief moment of optimism and excitement during an otherwise terminally frustrating and repetitively depressing era for the club. Was overjoyed we got him and devastated when he walked.

James Rodriquez left everton with a greater net-worth than microsoft

And a bottle of Echo Falls Rose.

Oh nah agreed, Brands was crap as well, but Walsh was probably even worse as he had a lot more money at play

I thought Brands was okay until Kenwright enticed him onto the board after that he just became one Kenwright’s puppets and did as he was told.

Well on the whole his tenure was more or less dreadful, all matters where it goes really - he did start off well and involved in the right way, but it ended in tears, so that's his legacy.

Kenwright ballsing things up as usual then butting in where he wasn't wanted and definitely not indeed.

Imagine having the brass neck to try and get yourself involved in issues that should be handled by the manager, particularly a manager that is arguably one of the best of all time in world footballing history.

I could t stop myself from laughing when i read how surprised they were that Kenwright was even there. Imagine the shock when he started butting in, acting like he knows better than Carlo bloody Ancelotti. Id love to be a fly on the wall, hearing what Davide and Carlo said after that meeting.

No wonder we're broke if we are splashing out on leaving presents like that...

Loved him here but let’s face it, he ran away when it got tough.

I'm sure what he got and what he was promised was 2 ....... utterly completely different things
