Why we cannot sign anyone

Agent tells a player to talk to Everton

Player "So Frank, can you tell me about your plans to take the team forward and how I will fit in?"

Lampard "To be honest mate, I am not even sure if I will still be here by Sunday"

Player "Can someone from the board explain anything to me?"

Lampard "Sorry lad, they are all too scared to come near the place"

Player "Do you have any advice at all?"

Lampard "Yep! Don't try drive your car away from the ground after we lose"
But you will pick up a massive wedge.
 

I really don’t like the way we leave business late on a lot of our dealings. There is something to that . A financial issue because it goes back years this sort of thing and it costs potential results on the pitch. Look at the start of the season, having to play Gordon up front ffs.

When your left with an incompetent egotistical revered board this is what happens
 
The transfer window opened at the start of January. That wasn’t the date to start scouting for players! Why is it that we wait as long as possible before making the signings we desperately need?! The fans weren’t chasing cars at that point. So to now say that is a reason players aren’t coming is laughable. I have zero experience working at a football club, but I could done a better job of recruiting than we have, just by the games I watch on tv! It’s really depressing that we need the changes we do, and even more depressing that those in charge have buried their heads in the sand, for as long as they have! No wonder there were protests!
 

The Everton Hierarchy are REALLY trying to push the narrative that players, which heavily includes players from the continent, will not be wanting to join because some children ran along side some players vehicles, and raised their voices at them? They really are living in a different era aren't they? Go onto any social media site and look up what happens in Europe when fans become disenchanted with their players' performances. England is a utopia in comparison. The board's attempted gaslighting of their own fanbase continues. Nobody should be buying into this, get them out!!!
Exactly all of this.
 
None of us know exactly what our financial situation is. It is mostly guesswork. Trossard has gone to Arsenal for £21m which does not mean we could not afford that. He would be crazy to choose Everton over Arsenal. Others might make a similar decision if bigger clubs than us come asking. We must be fishing in shallow waters and may catch sod all.
 
There's no point whinging about signings we have already made . They are done and can't be undone .
We can't offer much money upfront for transfers so we ain't signing anyone at the moment . It's far from ideal but it is what it is. After Saturday we have no game until after the transfer window closes. We will pick up 1 or 2 near the deadline when clubs and players become a little more desperate.
 
They have money . We don't
I don’t know how long it’s going to take for people to clock that we’ve no money. Why are there no signings? Jeez ?

All our targets are going to teams that can put money down upfront. We’re left having to see what’s left or not wanted by anyone else…then we have to see if we can convince the club to let us have a loan, loan to buy.

Wonder who we’ll end up with.
