Latest Takeover Rumour. The Moores / Noell one

[Librarian]

Yeah but you'd expect it to be 'off' at least once, that's part of negotiating

Is a very RAWKish thing to say, if you'll excuse the expression

To be fair mate.

Your basing all this on 2 day old information.

Just saying.

No mate, that's what Fourth Official is doing, and basing it on 2 day old info that was proven wrong.

We won't hear anything until the end of the month and we wouldn't anyway, because they have until the end of the month to negotiate and make a decision.

It is highly unlikely they would walk away in the middle of the month when they've signed an exclusivity period. You only do that if you're keen, and if you're that keen, you're not walking away half way through the month.

Well if it's true suprisingly many here are feeling relieved.

 

[BoysInBlue]

How many Everton signings that actually happened over the years 'hit a snag' at some point during the negotiations?

Anyone who thinks any sort of business deal goes through without any posturing from either side is incredibly naive.

A snag being hit (which has been denied by the one national journo in the know sticking his neck out to report stuff) doesn't mean the deal has collapsed.

By the way, Rory Smith has just tweeted 35 minutes ago that his info that he put out on Friday, that the deal is still on, still stands.

So it's not 2 day old info. It's 35 minute old info. @MoutsGoat

@RorySmithTimes is the Twitter account.

If I was buying anything, and I told someone my plans, I would be a bit annoyed if that appeared all over the Twatisphere.

Ha Ha. That feller obviously isn't familiar with Evertonians.

Link? Did Fourth Official say that was their source, or are you assuming that?

Maybe you'd be annoyed, but it doesn't mean it wouldn't be true.

Rory broke the story with a full backstage splash in the Times, which started this thread.

All he has tweeted is that his sources have told him that it's still on and proceeding, contrary to what other supposedly ITK twitter accounts are saying.

I don't think there's anything to get annoyed about after the original back page newspaper story. I'm quite sure both parties probably didn't want that news out in the open in the first place.

Fourth Official never reveals their source mate.
Can't think why....

 

[USABlue]

I'd trust a times reporter over 4th official.....

Quite. IF something is going on, then someone who knows something has told this bloke. The reason why, one can only guess at.

Thing we have to remember on this is being taken over now isnt as important as it would of been a few years ago. With all the money coming in and FFP it's not as big an issue as it was for Man City who got bought out at a time when you could buy your way to the top. Either way i still hope when we do get sold it isn't to these two, so if its off i wont worry about it, the future of Everton isn't going to be sorted over night with a with a buy out from these guys now that the financial field of play as changed.
