New Everton Owners: The Friedkin Group

[Dwight K Schrute]

Am I being impatient or are these guys sitting on their hands and just boasting about buying a shiny new stadium?

Ironically, it feels like they are fiddling while Rome burns.

In this instance Rome is fine and Dan is sitting on top of the Liver building playing his fiddle, the smoke rising!

Seriously though, they need to do something. I still feel that they think that they can get through the season with Dyche tbh. Which is madness.

I do too.

They probably know they have to be seen reacting to fan discontent but they'll be hoping a couple of wins in the next week will settle nerves and quell dissent. I think they do believe Dyche will do what he's done so far here: get us safe ultimately.

As I keep telling you, results will sack this clown, not TFG.

He will leave them no choice.

We're nowhere near that point yet.

This lot are in a bind: they know he's the manager who can get us over the line if they keep their nerve and aren't stampeded by some fans; but they know if it goes a few more games without a win then they'll have to bend the knee to the pitchforkers and lose control of this club from the off.

They should have the balls to back this manager and hand him some cash.

It's about to turn into a test of their ability to govern soon.

Well it would show they know nothing about football and know nothing about how to maximise a fanbase. Dyche is doing long-term damage (aside from the points issue) assets want out. Dyche is asking for old, useless players again in January and is vetoing useful options by all accounts.

He's a tool and desperately needs punting.

From a purely financial perspective, if he keeps us up then we're better off in the summer from not sacking him.

My guess would be a new manager would have to finish no lower than 12th to cover the cost in place money from finishing 17th.

Dyche has in actuality retained the value of this football club for two years pretty much single handedly as there was no governance at the club apart from overseeing that new stadium build.

TFG know the job Dyche has done here and they know it has been crucial to their arrival. They wouldn't be here if Dyche hadn't galvanised this club and prevented it from falling into the Championship x2.

Not this time they won't, they are expected to get the book thrown at them this time, sounds like they could be in a fair bit of trouble.

City are getting anywhere from 100-600 point deduction as well

God bless you if you actually believe that.

Not sure I`d like them to do that to be honest, just going on the two summer windows he has had, where we signed Beto, a striker that he sat on the bench since the goal machine that DCL is came back, and this summer brought in O`Brien to sit on the bench since pre season.

The upside to keeping Dyche far outweighs getting rid of him.

It's Thelwell's decsions. He got stuff wrong and he got stuff right - Ndiaye and Mangala.

What's the source of this? Has he said this himself in a presser?

 

[MrGrumpy]

you can replace at a lower wage though

for example Tim Ireogboenum might be on around 10k a week and he has replaced Gomes who would have been on around 80k a week

a significant savings of 70k per week on just 1 player etc...

Try 120k a week

The stadium will certainly have been a pretty massive factor in buying the club in the first place like, think this is undeniable really. Only natural for them to spotlight that.

They need to spotlight it so we can get the biggest name sponsor possible. Preferably in time for this window. It's built and being discussed. No reason why it can't be named.
