Farhad Moshiri

[roy vernon]

Moshiri has done well by us.

He has spent hundreds of millions of Pounds on players and given us a new stadium on a famous waterfront.

Can he really be blamed for experienced managers with great pedigree performing so poorly?

Yes

He hasn't built it yet. If he bailed now it'd be someone elses problem..

Not yet he hasn’t!

What he’s done is unprecedented. No owner in this league to my knowledge has taken over a penniless team pumped a huge volume of cash into them and regressed them without seeing any kind of short term success.

Comparable teams like Blackburn and Leeds have flown too close to the sun and found the spending to be unsustainable but they at least achieved some short term success relative to where they were i.e some kind of return on the investment.

This bloke has seen the team regress and achieve less than we did before (an incredible feat for a team that hadn’t won anything for almost two decades when he came in btw) and if the accounts are to be believed he’s done it with mostly his own money. This is not the sign of competent ownership.

Villa and Lerner.

Villa and Lerner.

Yeah fair point actually they’re probably on par I doubt they spent as much though

 

[4737carlin]

I'd be surprised given our circumstances tbh

Unless people are sensing that Moshiri is willing to accept a bargain price to cut his losses

From Moshiri's perspective it would make sense to hold out and cash out with the stadium delivered

It would unless we drop, for an investor looking for a club we will be one of the easy ones to pick off right now, none of the clubs with owners running them well are likely to be sold anytime soon.

 

[Blue Magic]

Eh! If this Iranian has the dough he says he has, can’t he just get our remaining matches fixed in our favour? Everton aren’t we?!

Surely Moshiri could just get Usmanov to get Putin to get the KGB to hack into the premier league's computer and just move us up a few places in the table.

 

[Billy Dean]

yes.

Sacking benitez without a replacement ready.

then hiring frank the last day of the transfer window.


Thats major incompetence.

The funny thing is that he spunks millions in wages on Directors of Football and still this happens.

 

[Toffeelover]

yes.

No, the major screw up was hiring Benitez in the first place.

 

[gorgeousgeorgeEFC]

But apparently it will only happen if we stay up.

 

[Zatara]

He'll be thrilled today.

If Lampard can keep us up then I think he'll be the one manager in a long time that has both the fans and the boards full support.

The one manager, that was appointed by Bill, hopfully Moshiri has learnt to let the chairman by the chairman and stay in the background

Another thing about what a terrible period of ownership this is under Moshiri. Today all our eyes were on the result of a game between Norwich and Burnley, two sides in the bottom three.
Prior to him arriving, a day like today our eyes would of been on the West Ham result as we battle for Europe, something we did a lot under the previous owner.
