Takeover bid by Peter Kenyon

[Brett Angell Delight]

Is the article wrong or have I missed something? People saying these fellas are paupers, but the article seems to imply that one of these guys is worth 31 billion.

Beware what you read into that, though. Elon Musk is duking it out for the Richest Guy in the World tag and most of his worth is derived from the value of the shares he holds in Tesla; these people don’t have that kind of cash say around, that they can just dip into the piggy bank for a few hundred milly and buy Everton with it. They’ll likely seek financing, which will attract interest, which the club will almost certainly be saddled with.

We wished for a sugar daddy once and got one, and it’s been a disaster. We should be very careful what we wish for next.

That isn’t his personal money.

This lot would have Richarlison out the door as soon as someone offered 30 million. This is hugely concerning.

It'll be true.

They tried for Newcastle didn't they?

It's whether Moshiri is receptive, which it sounds like he is.

Perhaps the outcome of Usmanov's sanctions appeal could be a factor.

Would you not? Wash your hands with a club that's bled you dry.

Seen a tweet that says 5 different parties interested in us.

Also seen hints at Usmanovs sactions could soon be lifted, meaning he will be back in.

 

[BirkenheadBlue]

Maybe. But anyone thinking that when he would have sold up post stadium build this club wouldn't be in massive debt is having a laugh.

These Yanks are scary too, of course.

We're now hoping that this lot - if they buy the club - then sell up post stadium build to a sovereign wealth fund.

Ah yes… the good guys

I'm all for it if it means Moshiri and kenwright are bounced out. People seem to forget we were in a precarious relegation battle I dont trust the ignoramuses to engineer a massive rebuild. The face of the consortium actually has history with Frank.

They'll want assurances over the FFP, possible points deduction situation. If they get that then I think it's a goer.

Can see Moshiri wanting out with a bit to show for it and these guys thinking they can squeeze more juice from the lemon.

All the pieces seem to fit.

IF there is some substance to this and Moshiri is looking to sell, I’m hoping (but not expecting) this bid smokes out a few more potential buyers.

 

[Noble Savage]

All you Moshiri haters just look at the state of those out there.

As Kenwright once said "be careful what you wish for".

He also mentioned something about being grateful for the " good times". Insights aren't exactly his strong suit.

 

[Tommy.]

How can you asset strip a club that's 450 million in debt ......the ground may be financed but the daily running is attrocious finance wise billions spent squad of players poor ...

Where did you pluck this figure from, Joey?

 

[everton1953]

We are all hugely concerned but not sure what with.

 

[mahermi1]

Bit strange this massive news hasn't found its way to skysports yet..

5 different interested parties

If this happens will Mosh Man erase that awful pack of barefaced lies and fluff that he had his PR team feed us the other day?

Usmanov’s sanctions are being challenged in Europe, but it’s unlikely anything changes in regards to the UK

Plus, the optics of things
