Wrong time wrong place mate. You needed to be in the Former Soviet Union in the 90s - the period when *ahem* "entrepreneurs" like Usmanov and Abramovic were *ahem* "creating" loads of value from *ahem* "liberated state assets", aided and abetted by *ahem* "security consultants" from Spetsnaz and other *ahem* "market oriented" gentlemen from Mother Russia's military machine.

hmm...no wind up there clearly...

why can't you just drop it mate and be happy?

I am happy. Money in from a major player; great footy team; on the eve of clinching another SF spot.

Ahh dave has set his stall. Poor Moshiri - he could sign Messi now and dave would be like, "and what, where's Ronaldo?"

Not at all. The PL attracts such people. But we dont have to think he's the fairy Godmother do we?

I always thought Beirut had that title...

Beirut is in the Near East though...

Not even gonna pretend I've any idea what's going on here.

what was I thinking? clearly a positive post that was above..

I'll give the man a chance but his statement seems a bit contrived, he's obviouly googled Everton with bits of our history thrown in there, but vauge statements of intent as welcome as that intent is, isn't going to wash it at Everton. We need clarity and action.

I'm prepared to be patient mind, but find that statement a bit of a media crafted blurb.

Sound.

So, serious question, without you going into popcorn mode, would it be fair to say that Moshiri's short statement has reassured you somewhat ?

Obviously there's a difference between words and actions, but things are looking pretty positive with Moshiri on board ?

 

[BiggyRat]

Statements are generally sterile, what's needed is a hard hitting interview from the Everton Show!

You really do enjoy to argue or start arguements don`t you?.... basically about anything. My mum would have called you an ornery sod!

I read it as: "I do the heavy lifting of financing and strategy; Kenwright and Elstone run the core business".

Take Elstone out of the equation and that's not a bad way to run a club.

Words are cheap though.

Im quite pleased its been a bit quiet tbh. Worst thing is there could have been a lot razzmatazz, saying we are going to do this, win this etc etc. Other clubs /fans hate us for buying success. Keep us under the radar and see what happens

Nice that Len Deighton has agreed to ghost write your posts from now on Dave ! But seriously, you're near enough right......

I think Davek is playing the long game with Moshiri, it gives him a position of strength to argue against Moshiri when he sacks Martinez.
