He struck lucky with Moyes, as it was walter smith who recommended him. And I'm thankful Billy boy had the courage to appoint him (or maybe just the cheap option) If it wasnt for Moyes we would still probably be doing a Leeds in the lower leagues. It the only credit Bill deserves....

As for Moshiri, he had no choice.....nearly eveyone had, had enough f him. Remember he turned down the City an PSG owners......with his fake illness he had no choice but to accept. But after the summer transfer window the jury is very much till out on Moshiri

Was going to counter that post, but on the back of that comment, I think I'll just leave it.

Oh Sorry...Moshiri must have magical healing hands.....

Always remember what Kenwrights 1st Job was........

AN ACTOR....

Hes been poorly acting a football chairman for the past 20 years...and then an award winning performance that should get him the casualty gig.

These are ridiculous sentiments. No choice to sell? We already know for sure another US group was interested when Moshiri bought into us. Do you really think we won't have had interest from people and groups down the years who would have been completely inappropriate for us? Fake illness? That's juvenile.

You can say he got lucky with Moyes but was it also lucky that he stuck with him in the difficult second season? Why didn't the owners of the clubs I mentioned above strike lucky? I agree Moyes deserves a huge amount of credit but Kenwright appointed him and stuck with him so it's unfairly hypothetical to say we'd have done a Leeds without Moyes. Everton under Kenwright (as we all painfully know) have never spent wildly beyond their means to put the club in jeopardy.

I'm if the opinion that safeguarding the financial viability of the club should be a basic duty of an owner but sadly achieving even this puts him above quite a few of the other club owners during the prem years.

You can't blame him for hypothetical stuff he didn't do then refuse to credit him for actual stuff he did do.

We asked folk not to discuss his, or anyone else's health before mate.

Whatever anyones view of him as a Chairman, owner, whatever, can everyone lay off that particular topic. Especially when hardly anyone on here actually knows jack about it.

Haha do I need to define a run in Europe now before we can credit the owner/manager with that particular achievement? How many games must we play before its considered a run and therefore allowable as evidence of progress?

Seeing forums where fans like Man City fans are saying oh s**t there's 3 points gone a week before we play them isn't fearing us? Did you believe some of the more outspoken members of this forum that kept telling us we were s**t during all those years.. We really were not.

You are right about something though... I am easily pleased, not as easily as one pot and then I don't care if we are constantly bottom half for a decade like your good self that doesn't see progress in all this, but yeah I spent the last decade or so happy to see us improving, be the first to break top 4, get to a cup final and maintain a near constant European place challenge.

Even with Moshiri's wealth, if Koeman achieves this in the next three seasons he'll be considered a decent success by most. Moyes and Kenwright did it on a negative net spend with the top 4 far stronger than they are now yet are derided as the men who ruined Everton. Sometimes people act like it's as though 1987 happened then Moyes and Bill came in and ruined everything. Quite convenient to forget the decade in between spent battling relegation, firing managers, selling players behind managers backs etc.

"We started getting runs in Europe"
one time we got to last 16 or something! hardly cause for celebration.
no one feared or fears us, as our record against anyone decent will show, especially in games with pressure.

It is when you take a squad flirting with relegation, sell your best players, and achieve it on a negative net spend when everyone else is spending significant money.
