[Librarian]

Stage 1: Ridicule, Don't be daft, never gonna happen

Stage 3: Conjecture, OK seems like there could be substance in this but will end in tears, 'cus Everton
Stage 4: Speculation, it must be X because Y
Stage 4: Expert Analysis, playbook of possible scenarios

There was plenty pre xmas.

Two Chinese, Two US, at least one Asian.

At least two are still massively involved.

So it's not fait accompli with the two Americans?

If its anything like are tranfer business we will be linked with somebody for weeks/months and end up with somebody totally different at the end.

Microsoft ? Wait a minute, is Bill Gates involved in the bidding ?!?

 

[evertony]

This will probably go against the grain for most, but, all I want is to still be Everton FC at the end of it all.

Lose the identity and there's no point. Everything else is garnish...

This 100%....

 

[Ron Burgundy]

Is this on then or?

 

[tonka1878]

Don't you mean 'Kneads more...'

 

[evertony]

Man city fans probably don't care mate for what success they've bought!

That's why they're Man City fans...they wer Chelsea fans 4 years ago.
I work with a good number of 'proper' City fans ( being a born and bred Manc) and I can tell you the vast majority find the whole money and Sheikh era quite distasteful...they've lost their true identity....they call themselves New City and they miss the good old days.

 

[evertony]

Just imagine if Wayne was somehow involved.

That really would not surprise me.....a Scouse Beckham scenario if you will

Apologizes if any of this information has been posted.

Moores owned a stake of the Padres from 1994-2012. I'm providing a link that goes back to 1998 comparing the San Diego Padres payroll rank in the MLB (Major League Baseball), I'll provide another link that you can search from year to year if anyone is that interested.

Just for fun here's a link to what everyone can expect to eat after the takeover

Noell, I'm not that familiar with other than the horse racing, and Padres ties.

Those links honestly mean nothing in regards to the takeover. I just found Moores spending habits interesting. I'm not a big baseball guy, but other than a good year here and there the Padres have been mediocre to bad. I'm in the wait and see crowd, only because I don't want to be doom and gloom.

You're going to send the pieman to an early grave with this

Say no to American destroyers in our City.

Keep Everton English.

So it's not fait accompli with the two Americans?

Moores and Noell had exclusive rights to negotiate while under the 6 weeks due diligence. I would think that 6 weeks is up but maybe they've had an extension we don't know about or they've already agreed to a deal in principle and are ironing out the details. I would also think that unless there were some demands from either side that could not be agreed upon, M&N are still the only ones who can buy. Unless this deal fails, I don't think the Chinese could swoop in.

That being said, there are sometimes some secret meetings in these things whereby the Chinese could whisper over the bathroom stall, "We give you £50m more!" and then the current board suddenly come in with an unreasonable demand for the Americans and the deal falls apart.
