How can anyone be "taught" to be an Evertonian.....

I have done that to one or two disbelievers

 

[PhilM]

My only small worry here is with Bill still being in charge, major changes (like Elstone getting the boot) won't be made

I'm absolutely delighted about this as a first step though.

A valid concern I suppose however I expect that Kenwright will have been kept as a tool to help facilitate the transfer of ownership.

Kenwright has knowledge of the club which could be useful in the short term, yet in the long-term I doubt he will retain much power at the club.

When further shares are bought and he gets a firm grasp of the reigns of the club, I think we will see changes in the hierarchy.

Could've least had a blue shirt on FFS

Bill stays as Chairman

 

[The Equaliser]

Hard to make an assessment of this until there is a breakdown of that £175m.

For a start, how much did he pay for his 49.9% shareholding.

Too obvious. He's gonna chill in the background.

Valuing the club at c. £350 million? Where's that figure come from?

 

[USABlue]

just waiting for @The Esk 's rundown

 

[LinekersLegs]

Perhaps Woods agreed to keep his shares for a few years but with a gentlemans agreement to support Moshiri and then, rather than use money to buy Woods shares, Moshiri invests that into club improvements?

 

[neil999]

biggest thing about this? we now have a chance of holding onto barkley,lukaku and stones

Valuing the club at c. £350 million? Where's that figure come from?

Yeah, not convinced on that one at all

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Didn't think Bill would sell up with the big tv money we are about to get, so just another one on the board we all can get frustrated over. Oh well Goodison will get a new lick of paint.

Jesus Christ what's the point when some of our fans continue to post crap like this?

Think someone has potentially edited his wiki net worth is $879b

 

[The Equaliser]

Also, "pledge of investment" = £ ?

Address the stadium issue = £ ?

 

[BlueToff]

Bill stays as Chairman

He'll never relinquish power...

In all honesty though it's hard to see a downside to this. Got a new majority shareholder with tons of cash, and this should lead to investment one way or another.

I've got no real issue with Kenwright staying on for the time-being, though I know many have, as long as the money is spent where it is needed.
