Surely this could only happen with MSP consent?
If they consented to this, it would tell me enough about them.

If true - and I hope it’s not, because it’s awful if true-
It explains why Mosh begged BK to stay on.
It’s because BK is willing to indulge and facilitate FM’s desperate attempts to still act as Usmanovs stooge. Thelwell won’t. MSP won’t.
BK’s “transfer acumen” that FM wants to still tap into is looking the other way while FM strokes Usmanov, Kia, and that whole fetid crew.

This might be the structure that MSP want in place mate - i dont think any executive appointments will be made without them, such is the structure of their deal.
The report says this fella has admirers on Merseyside - we can all guess who that is.......

Big Kev doing bits at the moment lads have no fear
My gut feeling is that we will have to judge him less harshly this season because we might not have a budget, and the stuff going on at boardroom level is extremely unhelpful for recruitment
Not getting a good striker last summer was still extremely poor from him. The money for Onana, Gueye, etc should have been spent on 2 forwards instead.

If that was even down to him, and not Kenwright clowning around. We’ve got no idea how the transfers really work in this circus.

There was some agent that came out last Jan and said everyone had the impression that we didn't have the money we were supposedly bidding

That’s why other clubs look up to us
Thelwell wouldn’t be making empty bids like that on his own, that’s more likely Showbiz Bill being all theatrical again.

He’s useless. We were too close to going down and his recruitment was key.

It amazes me that this idiot wasn't swept away with Sharp, DBB and Ingles.

Interesting one
Last summer we signed Gueye, Garner, McNeil, Onana and Maupay, as well as a couple of loans which were presumably because we didn't have the money to do permanent deals and they were players he knew.
Of the permanent signings we made only Maupay, in my opinion, has turned out to be a bad buy. The others, on balance over the whole of last season and in the context of what we paid for them, their age, potential resale value and what they delivered over the course of the season are all at least decent signings.
Coady as a loan did a job.
Vinagre clearly wasn't fancied, so that one was perhaps a poor move by Thelwell
Overall last summer he got more right than he got wrong (if we assume these were all his decision, which we can never be quite sure about at Everton).
I don't think many of us disagree with releasing Rondon or selling Gordon for the figure we got for him. The question mark comes in terms of what happened re bringing in attackers in January - it's easy to say Thelwell is to blame here, but in the context of the FFP mess which came to light, the state of the club on the pitch, Moshiri's meddling, the managerial situation at the time and the question mark about how much money we actually had (remember all the odd loan moves with obligations to buy etc which were rumoured), I think there's enough doubt there about just how much blame we can stick in his column for January.
We were very close to going down the season before Thelwell got here. I tend to think the issues are much greater and long-standing than who we signed/didn't sign in the last 12 months, but even then I don't think the job he's done on the recruitment side of things is that bad at all, especially in the context of what we know.
There will, however, be no world in which I will forgive not signing at least one realistic DCL alternative this summer as the world and his dog know what our biggest issue is
Doing bits allegedly.
