Takeover bid by Peter Kenyon

@Azza I just found another Kaminski's masterstroke.


He was arranging AnyTime Fitness expansion to Poland with his business buddy. They opened just 1 gym and it's permanently closed for 2 years going bankrupt.

Maybe it's due to covid, but they're propably doing fine in other parts of the world.
 

This potential development is just further evidence that Everton demolishes any possibility of bliss. Kenwright the clown is finally selling the club but to a oligarch's lackey who is incapable of running a club and the turd isn't even leaving. Hey we're flushed with cash going to do some mega spending on bolaise, tosun , iwobi and a bunch of other overpriced duds. We got true ambitions now after hiring the man who looks like an unmade bed to save our season we hire underwhelming silva. Now Moshiri after financial mismanagement and losing access to a shady benefactor we might end up with a bunch of extras from the wolf of wall street
 
If we became a serious challenger to Newcastle, they would most definitely be arsed.

So arsed, if we were top in December and Newcastle 2nd our owner would probably loan our best players to Newcastle as a wedding gift. (Thursday wife, maybe.)

Having lived in the region for 25 years and have seen royalty from all over the GCC up close. You have never seen forelock tugging like it.

If it's not PIF it's a waste of time.

For the reasons mentioned above, it would be utterly pointless. We'd reach Moyes levels and that's it.

Good Times.


Honestly, if it's Gulf money the dream is Qatar.

A rather serious standoff was only eased just over a year ago. Travel between the UAE, Saudi and Qatar was banned. Qataris living in the UAE and KSA were given 48 hrs to pack up and leave. Even if they owned businesses, shut the business and get out.

The tension has eased and travel is free once again, as is the right to live and work, but the resentment still simmers under the surface. (The restrictions were only eased because of the World Cup, Qatar is nowhere near big enough to host everyone, shuttle flights from 40 mins away are essential)

Forget PSG, (who they wouldn't have to ditch btw) if they had an opportunity to go toe to toe with the UAE and KSA in the same league, it's on like Donkey Kong.

Yes yes, FFP, Profit and Sustainability etc. They can also afford lawyers as good as Man City and provide us with fair value sponsorship deals.


Im surprised the Qatari's havent been all over Everton.

The club is ideally positioned for them.
 

FSG bought from quasi liquidators at the lowest possible price

They had a massive built in return on their investment and a lot of headroom to invest in the squad

Farhad will be looking for them to spend a billion just to own the club never mind what they need for squad overhaul
Meh. It's just like buying a house that needs a complete overhaul. You just don't do it if you haven't got something put aside to at least make a start.
 
From down the back of my sofa just now:
1 throwing star
1 well used Beaver Patrol car sticker off of Zoo magazine circa 97
1 Wrestlemania III vhs featuring the mighty Can-am connection versus Bob Orton Jr and the Magnificent Muraco
1 pair of Minnesota Viking 'lightning' gym pants
Half a bottle of home made Poteen

Happy to be a silent partner tbh, wife would kill me if she found out what we were up to.
I’m not surprised, you’re handing over the family silver, just hope she gets caught up in all the hysteria when our bid is successful. I’m now going all out and including my cherished old style 10p coin which I swallowed at the age of 8. It had to be removed in hospital as too big to pass through. A beautiful bronze hue so truly one of a kind!
 
Oh hey up, the Saudis and their questionable morals have entered the bidding.
Is it wrong to steal bread to feed your children if they are starving?

Is it wrong to fund a campaign of sportswashing to stop those same children being exposed to criticism about your despotic regime built on cruelty, intolerance and greed?

Ans if the second situation also annoys the rs then in some ways isn't it more acceptable than the first?
