We've been strung along by the Johnson and Kenwright regimes for decades. I dont take face value anymore. Not many Evertonians do. An unimpressive transfer window followed up by another pie in the sky stadium announcement wont be acceptable.

Absolutely amazes me you are still going on about Kenwright. You ,Blue Union and about twenty regular posters on here would have had us sold off to the first potential buyer. Kenwright has been brilliant in waiting for the right buyer and for the first time in thirty years we can compete with the richer clubs.
Moshiri has only been here six months and he's starting to change the club radically already.
Are you one of these people who is only happy Dave if you have something to moan about!
 
I can be quite thick at times, but is the land purchase a done deal (I've probably missed it) and why would this trigger a repayment of the Pru/AIB loan - doesn't make sense in cash-flow terms. I've not seen any documentation regarding this charge with EFC because it's not available on Companies House, but I would be surprised if AIB/Pru would have the right to repayment on the purchase of land - it causes no threat to the underlying income stream or asset that they hold the charge over.

I have had a conversation with someone close to the original Pru/AIB loan about this in the past. He flagged some reasons for wanting to pay off the existing debt before a further acquisition or build of a new stadium - I'll check notes when back in London next week.
 
You know as well as I do, that's not true. We had an horrendous squad, which had and is being built on. I think it would be wise to assess how much we spend and who we can attract once the window is finished.
That wasn't the vast majority of thinking at the end of last season.

Regardless of how good it was/is, a new manager has to not only shift out and shift in he needs to improve what he inherits.

More than happy to acknowledge that when it happens. If this feller comes in and gets it right on and off the field then we should build a statue to him.

All we have so far by and large though is the same old same old with a sweepingly positive narrative established at the beginning of summer that now looks a bit of a stretch.

utterly agree with this. there have been so many failed takeovers and it really does seem that hes handed over the reigns to someone who can take us forward rather than who offered top dollar
 
I'm on my phone on a boat so surprisingly don't have the deed of assignment to hand lol. If you look at the deed of assignment it clearly states that the borrowings will be repaid from the stabilisation payments received by Everton in May and June 2016. I will have to check but I believe both related to 2015/16. The first payment for the following season (2016/17) is usually received early August.

I'm pretty sure that the reference to 2016/17 would be in the event that the final stabilisation payments of the previous season do not cover the level of indebtedness.
Hello sailor :blush:

Had a look, and to paraphrase the definitions are "receivables" - 2016/17 basic payments which are called the "assigned rights" throughout the document, and stabilizer payments payable in May/June are in the definitions/interpretation but not mentioned again within the main body of the deed, but are covered in schedule 1 (Form of notice of Assignment)as "assigned property" a term that doesn't appear in the deed at all.

My confusion has cleared, so whilst I concede that the debt may have been paid (or partially paid) out of the stabilizer payment. Still stand by the fact there is nothing in the paper trail to back up any repayment cos I'm a miserable sod.

The Pru/AIB is just weird as to my simple mind for the next few years we're going nowhere so no great need to repay it from the EFC viewpoint. In the past EIL has held the funds in term deposits (from memory) to cover the next 12 months payments so why bother - the interest is under a million a year on this loan now (from memory).

Hope you enjoy the bracing sea air, now get back on the oars mate ;).

Yawn yawn yawn.

Moshiri is great and all but they are sesperate entities and the we should stay on topic
 

Heard it all now: Witsel and Mata aren't coming because Martinez was here.

No, sorry. We've never been in the shake up for those players really. Everton: used again by agents of players who want a CL spot team. The club cant be blamed for that type of user, of course. But there's a whole spectrum of players out there before you reach the elite player level that could and should have been approached by now. We're way short going into this season and it's all to do with a regime that cant find its feet.
If we were top 6, in Europe, where we should have been, instead of two bottom half finishes, then we'd find it easier to get top players to sign.

They look at our league form recently and swerve us, that is directly down to that fraud your worshipped, if it was up to you he'd still be here, imagine that, I shudder at the thought of it.

How can you judge Moshiri after 5 months yet 2 years of crap results under Martinez you were still saying give him more time, ironic that isn't it.

Why should we have been top 6 when everything pointed to a 9th place finish in the last two years?
