Farhad Moshiri

[Efcjake]

The writing was on the wall for this season the second someone made the decision to gift Gibson another contract. That was a trumpet blast to the rest of the squad that this new regime would continue to accept the status quo of what had come before.

The failure to bring anywhere near the amount of quality or numbers required to fix the inherent problems of this squad in the summer has significantly contributed to our failure to improve in any recognizable way.

The promotion of Keith Harris and the mysterious delay of the AGM until (maybe) 2017 tells you all you need to know about Moshiri's intentions for this Club.

Live on and shine Bill, wealthier than ever before.

Keep forgetting about Keith Harris, there's a lot that stinks at Goodison.

The problem is, keeping Kenwright and Elstone on. You can polish a turd, but it'll still be a turd.

Hope @The Esk can shed some light on why Robert "underachieving" Elstone is still around.

Surely Morshiri being the billionaire business man that he is has had a look at what he's done while he's been here and thought, time to move him on?

I am Puzzled as to how there haven't been major shake ups at the club, the club needs a culture change and it needs to be done quickly.

The only thing I can think of, is if Usmanov wants in he'll bring his own people.

Robert Elstone, how he's a CEO I don't know. I wouldn't have him as a Dept Head. He's useless.

He won't be coming, nice things like that don't happen to Everton.

I would also like to know what's going on with that share agreement, anyone got a opinion as to why it's not been exercised?

Just so many things not adding up at the moment.

Yeah mate

it's a passive takeover, we see it all the time in business, think of it like the buy-to-let schemes.

- buy business

- ensure it doesn't go down in value (i.e signing Koeman/Walsh and buying players with funds from player sales, all to make sure we stay in the Prem)

- add value to business with a perma-upgrade (renovation or more likely new stadium with 15k more seats, increase per-seat cost to demonstrate increased revenue)

- sit back 2-3 years then sell stake at a sizeable profit.


In theory it's a low-effort (hence the motley crew are kept on) yet high-gain business tactic, but it's no banker for it's reliant on the Prem boom continuing. Still relatively low-risk.

Pretty much nails it.

While making Bill and the cronies very rich. We've been stitched up

There's a number of people on the business side of the organisation who in my opinion do not warrant their position at the club including Elstone.

I think the question will be answered when Moshiri takes control fully. From what I hear Moshiri is not impressed. The changes within the organisation have certainly been slower than I anticipated nearly 9 months ago, but they will happen - we've had some changes and additions, a couple of senior managers in the commercial and finance department, and Chris Anderson at legal/company secretary but obviously not CEO and head of commerce which is were the changes are most required.
