Takeover bid by Peter Kenyon

[Buckers]

Why trust one billionaire and not another?

 

[MikeH72]

I’m far from sold on these buyers, but let’s be honest, they’d struggle to make worse ones.

You would genuinely have to try very very hard to appoint a worse manager for Everton than the 2021 version of Rafael Benitez.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Take away Usmanov and TV deal, our revenue is nigh on the same mate.

Farhad is going to lumber us with a 500m debt for the stadium.

We can't help what Putin did mate that once again messed up all our plans. The point we are going to go from people who had cash and willing to spend, just like Newcastle etc. to people who aren't going to bridge that gap anymore and we could end up like Burnley where they will asset strip us if required.

I can forgive Moshiri's errors as least it was coming from a good place, selling us to venture capitalists is something I can't forgive. Hopefully this process unearths some people who are in it for the love of football if not we are on very shaky ground here.

I'm certain he hired Benitez just to take the absolute piss and see if he could get a fanbase angrier than when he appointed Bisto boy

 

[Curtis]

Does it mean we start with a clean slate IE no financial fair play penalties?

Unfortunately I dont believe so. Past financial debt is still relevant I remember during the Newcastle takeover that question was explored but because of Ashley's penny pinching and stinginess the new owners have no concerns of financial restrictions. The potential buyers wouldnt have that luxury here.

You think appointing Benitez knowing the division was from a good place?

What about keeping the same useless leadership team in? Good place?

What about the fact we can't now spend a penny and have an agreement with the FA regarding our transfer activities? You can forgive that?

How about banning AGMs etc? Or putting ticket prices up?

 

[kenada_blue]

Wouldnt make much difference

We literally signed a player last January who neither the previous or future manager wanted

We allowed a manager to sell a key player after a fall out then sacked him the following weekend

I think it would be difficult to make worse decisions.

They're just bad decisions and giving a few people a lot of control.

At least the new owners will be focused on 1 thing....profit.

 

[Petit]

So is this happening?

 

[T LEAFE]

Bring back Peter Johnson

 

[bluestevon]

I wouldn’t agree with that no. I’d agree that Moshiri laundered Usmanov’s money through the club to bankroll us if you’d said that.

Why on earth would Usmanov need to launder money mate, he legitimately owns one of the worlds largest iron mining companies and Russia's largest telecoms company.

 

[Curtis]

Moshiri was a naive dimwit but ultimately it was kenwright that brought him in because Moshiri was the only one who let kenwright continue to squat at the club. So once again kenwright potentially jeopardizes the club through Moshiris mismanagement because of his hubris

 

[kenada_blue]

Naming rights still for sale and every club relies on the TV deal.

But I've no doubt the Yanks will boost our commercial arm. It'll be the main goal of theirs.

 

[Nymzee]

Wasn't it Ryan babble?

Nah was a striker.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

They're just bad decisions and giving a few people a lot of control.

Yeah to be fair Moshiri certainly couldn’t be accused of focusing on profit.

 

[Curtis]

We'll see.

A bloke who's the "big money man" behind a £500+ million takeover can't even be located on a search engine with no knowledge of his wealth or means to fund anything.

You'll be begging for Moshiri back after these neo nazi associating vultures pick the bones off us.

Why would I want Moshiri back he makes daft decisions like wanting to sell us to neo nazi associating vultures (your words)?He seriously destabilized the club
