Cheers mate.
The thing is Davek most match going Evertonians,dont see anything wrong at the club,they get information from regular media sources,look in the Echo do you see anything thats critical of the club?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.
For me, the question is, where is all this TV money, and why isn't it being invested into the team?
P.S, the Arteta money is behind @Woolly Blue's settee, so that's not an issue.
Yes, and I don't want us to simply spend cash for the sake of it, but that shouldn't really be limited to a one-off summer. We should be able to compete and buy Lukaku level players year in year out.To be fair, we did spend £34m last summer without selling anyone, with multiple people expressing surprise at 'where did this money come from?'. I am almost certain it was the new TV money.
Once again though, it's not 'investment' into the club, it's just using existing revenues that everyone else gets too.

£34m is a lot, but we should be able to do it, either more often, or over and above that amount.
Exactly. Well done to them for getting our man Lukaku.Absolutely, I agree.
I bet you we won't even spend more than £20m this summer, not unless we sell someone to fund it.
Perhaps the Fellaini money too?To be fair, we did spend £34m last summer without selling anyone, with multiple people expressing surprise at 'where did this money come from?'. I am almost certain it was the new TV money.

One window in isolation doesn't tell the story. The previous windows saw us sell Felli, Anichebe, Jelavic and others which basically funded the Lukaku fee. The fact is over a representative period of say 5 years, we have hardly spent a penny more on players than we have brought in from transfersTo be fair, we did spend £34m last summer without selling anyone, with multiple people expressing surprise at 'where did this money come from?'.

After the Coventry game Johnson was doomed. 30,000 people screaming in unison "We want Johnson, we want Johnson out". He was dead in the water just before that game and that outpouring clinched it.As a group of supporters, we have never co-ordinated ourselves at all. It's probably because anyone with an opinion is accused of either being a pro-board Kenwright lover or an anti-board Blue Union type. There are no shades of grey. While we are so divided as a fan base, we will never have a united voice and the board will continue to take p!ss. Do we think this third stadium failure will see the end of this board? Hardly, because they answer to no one. There could be another 3 stadium failures and the board would still be untouchable.
The only time I ever recall any sort of revolt was after we sold Dunc and that was a spontaneous show of anger and was hardly co-ordinated. It did however mark the beginning of the end of Peter Johnson's reign
Why have a competent chairman when we can have a passionate true blue?
