Farhad Moshiri

[degsy]

A question for those who know more about how football finances work. If moshiri got an investment of say £150m does that allow us to spend on some players or is this just added to the coffers and not brought into P&L calculations?

No, he's just selling a portion of the general debt the Club has to Him - to somebody else besides himself

That train has left the station

Mushroom clouds and lava everywhere

Exactly, a volcano can erupt more than once

Mosh's biggest mistake was keeping Kenwright on in a position of power.

Nah, his biggest mistake was listening to him in the first place

Not really, his position of power as you say was worthless when Farhad was still calling the shots, besides do you really think Farhad could of found a better replacement? All he would of done is put one of his stooges representing Usmanov and Kia J in place, we would be even more dead then we allready are

Crazy how the media haven't really picked up/reported on Moshers confirming a deal is close to bringing investors into the club.

Just shows most journo's only focus on 5 minute clips or clickbait articles from other reporters/news outlets to form their reports.

Yeah, moving money around via Everton

No manager, no attackers, selling another winger, in the bottom three hurtling towards relegation do something!

I don't know what you want me to do!

Sorry. I've been taking things a bit personally lately. I apologise.

I did notice that titbit of info, that has probably been lost in what was an enormously chaotic day.

Are we up for sale or not? I’m confused

I think if someone offers the money Moshiri wants, he'd sell.

I also think it's not in Moshiri's, or the club's interest to be seen as proactively trying to sell the club - especially when you're wanting a new manager.

Thinking about that video again...

Another thing that's so strange about it is the absence of the manager in the discussion.

We know it was recorded prior to Lampard's sacking, so either it was edited to remove any reference to him, or Moshiri deliberately didn't mention him because he knew he was going to sack him.

Not an especially significant observation, but it was strange the managerial merry go round wasn't more central to the conversation.

I like Simon.

Well, that was pretty much spot on.

The only people you want to advertise that you're looking to sell to are the people who are capable of buying.

And with so few of those around, they will be contacted directly or by intermediaries, you'd imagine.

Cancel the Arsenal match, we'll get them both those inflatable sumo costumes and get it set up at Goodison, 3.00pm a week Saturday, clean fight, no headlocks.

I don't think Kenwright needs an inflatable suit.

 

[degsy]

Debts, promisory notes, etc are ok. They have a potential value of 100% - or say 10%...
or right down to not worth the paper they're written on.
