...and by the way, keep your eyes on the cash coming into this club again this summer for that bumper tv deal, it's the same massive £35M that we got last season. Just bear that in mind when Martinez is forced to sell to buy and then maybe given another £5M (if he's lucky) on top of that.


Never stop asking and wondering where the excess cash goes when it's not spent.

I agree regarding the stadium and of course the Rooney sale. I was thinking more along the lines of getting quality deals for the likes of Lescott and Fellaini. Whether in the theatre world he pays low or not is irrelevant, he's successful in that line if work. My point was not to deflect the blame away from him, he's the chairman so the buck stops with him. More a case of what are the others doing, what hold have they got over Everton,why doesn't Kenwright relinquish control and hand it over to them, is he worried they will destroy what he perceives to be "his good work" of steady the Everton ship?

Currently on our board there are members with a lot of money floating about. For whatever reason they are unwilling to invest or don't want to whilst Kenwright is in charge.

They wont take over because it'd mean demands for an outlay on players, infrastructure etc. They are doing very nicely out of EFC as it is by sweating that bridging loan that'll never go away. That's better than money in the bank. If banks ever start handing over interest payments like the Bank of Everton FC does, then they'd soon scarper.

Pair of Shylocks Kenwright invited into this club to save his own skin. And we all pay for it.

Thanks Bill.

I'll say it again for the millionth time:

Kenwright = bigger villain in Everton's history than John Houlding ever was.
 
The TV cash will end up in the players and agents pockets while we paddle along surviving with a short term plan and borrowing off the future TV deals via the likes of Vibrac.

At least we're not Vil.......... Damn, can't say that anymore with potential new owners and a cup final in the horizon.
 
The simple reason that Kenright gives the other directors an easy ride in terms of equity investment is that if they increased their capital participation he would be obliged to do the same or see his ownership share reduced proportinately.

Meanwhile they are happy hanging on for a Big Pay Day.

One of the many reasons a rights issue is a non-starter is it would have to be under-written. That would mean the major shareholders potentially having to put more money in. The other reason they won't do it is dilution. But in any event a rights issue would raise what? £15m is ambitious if you think the fanbase would be the main take up. And that would get you half a Lukaku.

I hate it though. It implies that since we haven't been as badly run as two of the most spectacular failures in modern football, that the board is doing a good job.

Imagine if a politician ran for re election on the platform that, hey, we've got running water, electricity and paved roads, and the country is not in a civil war like Sudan or Yemen so things must be great.

They just have mate, they just have.
 
Would like to see the banner that was on show at West Ham at GP tomorrow,along with a few more,gain a bit of momentum like.,there again they would most probably be made to take them down, thoughts. ?
 

I think there might be a big reckoning soon for this lot. I dont think Evertonians respond, by and large, too well to co-ordinated movements for change, it just happens very quickly and decisively.

A couple of straws in the wind indicate that a revolt could be at hand.
