Just seen that it's Watched Toffee. He's making out these billionaires are wanting to make us the next PSG but Bill won't listen. Sounds like a load of nonsense to me, seems like he's just getting ready to blame the board for doing the wrong thing as soon as this deal goes through.

What a poorly written and poorly researched article. Why do they have a picture of the Los Angeles Dodgers star Clayton Kershaw pitching in it? That's like writing an article and including a picture of Steven Gerrard and referencing him as an Everton player. Those quotes sound made up, who on Wall Street speaks like that?

Well there's your answer. He's the mother of all fake ITK/WUMs. Sounds like he knows everything but he doesn't. Right now he's probably setting up his next 5 years of fake outrage.

In summary, Messrs Moores and Noell will ultimately view Everton as a decent short-term investment. The notion that they will run the club as anything other than a profit-making venture is unlikely, as their experience in venture capitalism will surely guard against seeing personal losses similar to those suffered by fellow American Randy Lerner at Aston Villa. This is especially likely when considering the new TV deal will come into effect in the summer, seeing the Premier League awash with further riches. Whilst Moores is unlikely to see the spectacular returns he achieved when selling the Padres, reported to be around $720M, the pair could well see potential within a squad that has extremely saleable assets. It remains to be seen whether they will more resemble FSG, providing funds for the desperately needed improvement in stadium facilities, or the unthinkable prospect of another Hicks and Gillett.

Wish someone could tell me what was so awful about the Hicks/Gillett reign at Liverpool besides them not having the capital to continue. Iirc, didn't they give Benitez basically blank cheques I which he spent on Lucas and aquillari or whatever his name was? Ie; unadulterated crap
I fear a plain and simple asset stripping. This Moores guy is 71 years old, not much younger than the current Chairman, how long would he want to be in the hotseat? Next years tv cash sees the bottom club getting 99 million. All these guys need to do is buy the club sell our best players and take the tv cash and they are quids in by about 50 mil ... within 12 months ... nice return
I hope I am wrong

That is what worries me most.
He is 71.
Very much a short term thing for him, one would imagine.

Feel the same. Why sell to a 71 year old when so many other offers on the table? Only two things spring to mind. He is offering the most money to the Board which is the most likely. Or, his plan for Everton is far more impressive....doubtful to me.

Its wont be a long term plan for them, Everton need a 5 year plan but they can make a wedge in 12 months and forget about us, which is probably what they would do. Why wouldn't they? Why would they care if we win the FA cup, they probably don't even know what it is but they can see a quick earner when its on the table.
Would they be buying us if it there was no TV deal on the horizon?

That scenario is laughable. You're just fear mongering and anyone ignorant would probably take the bait. You don't build value by strip mining and selling your best assets on the field. Yeah's let's sell Everton's best players for a fraction of the value that you will destroy when your team gets relegated. That would be utter stupidity. Moores is hands-off when it comes to how the team is managed on the sports operations side. He hires smart people and let them run the team. In this case, my bet is that he'll evaluate RM and if RM shows that he has a long-term vision for success and silver-ware he'll let RM make those decisions.
When Moores acquired the Padres in 1995, just 3 years later he greenlit/approved the offseason trades to acquire all-stars and MVPs Ken Caminiti and Steve Finley to go with home grown core of Tony Gwynn, Andy Ashby and Trevor Hoffman. The Padres traded for All Star Greg Vaughn and arguably the best pitcher Kevin Brown in 1998 when it was clear the team had a solid foundation to compete for a championship and go deep in the playoffs. The underdog Padres finished top of their division and won the National League and lost in the World Series championship final that year.
The reason why he was able to get spectacular returns wasn't just timing, the Padres as an organization increased their intrinsic value with better infrastructure, a better television deal, better marketing and a team with more of a history of success in the decade before he sold the team than in the previous 20 years combined. If Moores just sat there and did nothing he'd be reviled. Some fans were scorned and hated Moores because he abruptly sold the team and disappeared - but when you understand that his hand was forced by his ex-wife in a bitter divorce where she wanted half of everything he owned you can understand why he had to sell the team.
