The Everton Board Thread 2015/16 [ Not takeover related ]

[daz4matty]

[Poor language removed] hell I heard you the first time!
Genuine question, not trying to start an argument, but why do you think we'll end up in the championship?
I realise he has blatantly lied, see my previous post, but I don't see how if we carry on as we are right now we'll end up in the championship
If we do it will be down to the manager not the chairman

Not if the other clubs are spending millions and we are not spending at all,its obvious they will overtake us.
You can only punch above your weight for so long

 

[Dithering Dougie]

That was said about this deal though and we have spent 4 million.
Where is the rest of the millions do you think when all other clubs are spending theirs on good players

Oh right you've got you're dates mixed up. It's not the end of the transfer window for another 2 and a bit weeks daz.

Its not mate no but do you really expect us to spend 15-20 million without selling

 

[Dithering Dougie]

Yeah I do actually.

These clubs over taking us by the way, have you ever seen one of them spend £28m on one single player? Or turn down a £30m bid for a young lad with less than 60 top flight games under his belt?

 

[joey_macmo]

That all you need , Joey you would have done well at a Kangaroo court. That's the problem with these forums people wont let the truth get in the way of pushing their argument!

Haha you've totally ignored me answering you're question directly right above that bit in bold!!

I can see you're mate who has liked it did the same ha

 

[Chang Elephant]

there's very few clubs in not just this country, the rest of the world, with finances as strong as ours

No, our commercial (non tv) revenue is pitiful in comparison to our peers

a new TV deal is introduced which will only strengthen our position.

All our competitors get the same increase so how do we strengthen Douglas ?

Very simple answer, have you seen them receive £27.5m for one single player?

 

[Steve Wigan]

Not many of them have ever had a player worth £27.5m !

Although the distribution of the new broadcasting deals have not been finalised, assuming they are similar to the current arrangements then the gap between what the top clubs receive and those below them actually increases.

So there's an even greater requirement to finish as high up the league as possible and for the investment required to enable this consistently to be found now.

The new broadcasting deals make it harder for poorer performing and financially less strong clubs to compete in the future. The income distributions will widen not reduce.

We strengthen every year by spending our budget better than our competitors, we also strengthen year on year from a stronger positions than at least 65-70% of the league.

So for us to get relegated 17 other permiership clubs would have to out perform us and at least one of the newly promoted clubs. Consider our unparalleled record in the top flight has lasted for so long its externally unlikely we'll get relegated.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

Yeah. Bale.

 

[joey_macmo]

That's how it works Steve well done.

No you tell me what does it matter how much you spend on someone if you've recouped more the season before?

Actually mate, you're 100% right

 

[joey_macmo]

Yeah. Bale.

I'm pretty sure he wasn't talking about Spurs but they've spent £27m on a player so you still haven't got a point

 

[Dithering Dougie]

I take it by 'course' you mean Spurs and their record deal for an incoming player is Lamela at just under £26m and they received around £80m for Bale.

Ask @Yid4life.
