The vast majority of STH's renew irrelevant of what's going on in the media. This business about it being a rumour to sell half season tickets is ludicrous....like most of the other rumours that float around like a turd in a basin.

The swiftest way to improve the bottom line is to start finding out at which point ticket price increases start to eat into attendances. I'm sure there would be an improvement in marketing and sponsorships. They'd be needing to cover the interest on their loans they've used to buy the shares, so they'll have a huge incentive to do better there. But not sure we'd see any benefit to it.
This lot aren't good news. There's obviously room for a lot of improvement in a lot of ways for the club. Doing it to pay off the current majority shareholders to go, and then to provide a decent earner for some new owners really isn't what we need. We need the investment to begin a decent cycle of success > more money > more success, not to bob along as we are but with the money leaving the club. We should already know how crippling long term debt can be. We're already mortgaging our tv rights for the season to get the money in. We've a high interest loan there to a former owner too. Doubling down on that model would be stupid for everyone but the men who get a football club for free.

I get the impression that the anti Bill brigade are already setting up a scenario were Bill gets blamed for selling the club to the wrong owners, so for Bill its a lose lose situation.....

Everton takeover latest: 'Promising but let's wait and see'

Shareholders’ chairman John Blane is cautiously optimistic amid fresh Everton takeover talks.
The Blues are the subject of interest from an American-led consortium who are looking to purchase the club.
John J Moores and Charles Noell are said to be fronting the group and are reportedly running the rule over the Goodison books, after agreeing a six-week period of exclusivity.
It is claimed the US businessmen are mulling over a £200m takeover.
Blane, chairman of the Everton FC Shareholders’ Association, has read the reports that were originally carried in The Times, and said: “Clearly, they appear to be sharp business guys and, by the nature of their business, you would expect that they have already devised an exit plan.

“That sounds premature as they have not even bought the club but they are surely in it for a return on their investment, there is not likely to be an emotional thing like it is with Bill (Kenwright).
“My first reaction was ‘let’s wait and see’.”
Blane also believes the Americans would be looking to buy-out Everton’s three biggest shareholders - Bill Kenwright, Robert Earl and Jon Woods - and that if the figure of £200m is correct, then it places the overall value of the club at nearly £300m.
“The quoted deal value of £200m is going to be based on the top three guys and their majority shareholding so that gives an overall valuation of the club at just under £300m,” Blane added.
“I would expect that there is going to be a bit of a premium on current financial performance and that would suggest there has been some competition amongst potential investors.

“At the General Meeting, the Chief Executive did say that the Chairman was confident about finding investment in the near future and there have been recent rumours of Chinese interest.”
“All things considered, it is interesting.
“But let’s wait and see.”
The Times report says Moores and Noell have signed a head of terms agreement , are now performing due diligence and will have made a decision by the end of January.
But it is understood that the six-week period could be enough time to not only examine the Goodison book but also for a deal to be finalised.

Say NO to Ginger Managers
Yeah ok Steve.
Why do you get the impression that this consortium would do that? That wasn't the model in San Diego.

@Coffee and TV
Thanks for that.
So if my reading of the above is correct, this guy doesn't know what the deal is, but is basing his statement on the chance that the 200mil figure quoted everywhere else is only for 70%.
The flip side of course is if the club is valued at 200mil, then to buy out the board would cost 140 mil.
Just thinking out loud.
