Latest Takeover Rumour. The Moores / Noell one

[meagher94]

Our inability to ever make simple transactions simple is laughable.

Surely a takeover is the least simple transaction in football...

I tend to disagree as I've never had 6 week exclusivity when purchasing a house whether detached or terraced.

probably because you aren't buying a 200million dollar business with complex finances mate.
They're somewhat different to houses per say

Nothing to do but wait and see really. Don't give yourselves high blood pressure in the meanwhile.

They had 6 weeks! Surely then it's a yes, no or negotiate on price as they had been in possession of the facts exclusively for 6 weeks.

It's Latin and shiz

I refer you to chicos post above.

Chill Winston.

I didn't in fact bring up the house conundrum if you care to read the previous page. Once again a blue was trying to placate the distinct possibility that our board has the inability to see this deal through.

It took me longer than that to buy a house worth 0.1% of Everton's apparent value.

My temperature is always stable and god knows who this Winston you speak of is.

Anyone else concerned that John Moores is 71? Not exactly in it for the long run is he...

Malcom Glazer lived till he was 85 , so no not really.

I was merely pointing out that buying a house has its issues, so I imagine buying a £200m business will have even more issues to iron out.

You - well, you were being cynical blue

That has that got to do with it?
You buying a house for 0.1% worth of EFC has nothing to do with the club negotiating and allowing a six week exclusivity.

If you haven't heard the adage patience is a virtue I suggest you read up. Everything I've seen and read over the last six months suggests that we are in the process of selling the club to new ownership and even if we don't end up selling it to these investors there are other interested parties.
Things take time and don't happen overnight.

I have never questioned the deal will not be easy, my disdain is EFC manage to drag out every negotiation we appear to enter into that often we lose out and once again I fear due to our own inability to finalise a deal satisfactorily that we could miss out again.

Surely as fans we want transparency?
