Russia / Everton

[catcherintherye]

Two wrongs don't make a right though. It's up to us to put our own house in order before we cast eyes elsewhere and I for one have never been happy to have our club bankrolled by money that has basically been stolen from the Russian people.

If this all (hopefully) dies down, I'd like to see serious pressure in the aftermath for Moshiri and Usmanov to take their money and [Poor language removed] off elsewhere with it. If that means no BMD and certain relegation then so be it.

Two wrongs dont make a right basically just means ignore things that are inconvenient.

If football wants to clean up, fine. I am supportive of that process. It doesnt begin or end with Russian sponsorship though.

And clean money !!

Does truly clean, unblemished money really exist? I appreciate there are degrees of dirtyness but I dont think theres much clean money.

They can speak out once but for that to happen they'd either be crazy or certain that Putin was getting the .45mm retirement plan to the head as they spoke.

Exactly. It's a death sentence. That scumbag Bryant knows it too...the *nice* liberal minded Mr Bryant.

Let's have it right: we're finished if Usmanov is forced out.

I think finished is pretty strong wording, it makes it all sound all very final
I do believe it will hamper what dreams we had of a new stadium, and the progression of a squad that may challenge for CL place

All I know is that as a club, we will always be her and I believe in the Prem

BUT…..we could see tough times ahead

I hope Moshiri is in trouble yes.

Saying that and looking at other posts of yours and replies clearly shows you are a rear end.

If Abramovich can get away with it why not us ?

When in doubt say Nout, I don’t know what’s going on here so I’m in doubt.

 

[Muggins]

Nymzee knows my form for starting crap threads that get no responses so I don’t blame him for that comment, it was fair.

 

[ProZ]

Moshiri was not put as the face of the operation by accident

Schalke ending their Gazprom sponsorship.

Watch the war mongering politicians now place pressure on Everton to distance themselves from USM.

yeah this is how I see it - we need to remember the only "official" money coming in is sponsorship, and while there have been a couple of dodgy deals where things have been inflated above normal rates, there will be other sponsors for a club of our size at normal rates, providing we stay up of course.

If he bankrolls Moshiri that's the stadium obviously in trouble , and yes we might need to sell a couple of players but with FFP it means we surely aren't in danger of the lights going out or anything like that. We just need to spend within our means and be shrewd with signings, which we've done before. Spending like we're a Champions League club hasn't exactly got us there anyway...

Moshiri is Usmanov's proxy.

This club is finished if the UK politicians sanction Usmanov.

We can just sell up to a murderous regime like Newcastle did, the Israelis must be looking a PL club soon
