The Everton Board Thread (Inc. Bill Kenwright / Blue Union)

yeah, but they were heading for the door.

touche', I give you that one.

I wouldn't go so far as saying the board have done precisely fa with the revenue streams as per Davek, but it is an area we really ought to be doing better, and given the following we have in some countries like Australia and America it out to be much much better. I know all about the exclusivity deal with Kitbag, but I'm seeing countless Everton fans around the world all saying the same things. Why isn't the Everton FC brand anywhere to be seen? Someone needs shooting methinks!
Just thinking aloud here.

Growth of the commercial side of Everton is pitiful. From 2004 to 2010 the board and CEO increased this stream from £8M to just under £10M. Spurs in the same period grew their commercial revenue from £16M to £31M.

Clueless.

No they borrow for players they spend 90% of what they make on wages. Anything they spend over that and they do - horribly is debt. 140 mill accumalted since Learner took over from 0.

Its opinions of course, but i dont think Villa have a bigger squad then us, isnt there a cap of 25 anyway, certainly in terms of quality - i think we are stronger and they will heamorgae players this summer gaurenteed - they have to.

It Starts.

This is why the commercial retardation under their *stewardship* is such an important point to make. Regardless of their personal wealth and ability/inability to put money in, these people are all businessmen but we've stagnated with their *expertise* on board.

As I said earlier, they couldn't run a whelk stall when it comes to football. And that leather faced CEO...dont get me started on that poseur.

THIS

Kenwright aside, the board don't know football. The CEO on the other hand is the root cause of much of your ire.

I'm struggling to make sense of what you're trying to convey? Would you care to expand on it a little or are you just taking potshots at random posts again.

Anyway onwards..

Tbh I haven't looked at the figures, but when you hear the like of Birmingham and some other PL bottom feeders not Everton's merchandise being readily available in various countries then something is not right. Surely this oversight is purely down the CEO and his team. I say shoot the feckers.

neilers post(1550) he loves to make out that because villa overspent, and we didnt, its something to gloat about, but fails to make the connection, we are poorly run on every money making avenue open to us.
kit deals. farcical
ground moves. worse than farcical
annexxe. embarressing
catering. a hit after so many misses

our total growth in annual income(taking out sky etc). would shame some championship teams. really, for a bunch of businessmen, its a joke. just not a funny, unless your NOT an evertonian.

but hey, lets laugh at teams who have had a go. but just watch and see if they get their act together, what their income streams do. they could still have the last laugh the way we shape.

just think about that, they are letting 10 thats TEN players go, we **** ourselves in jan when peinaar left and we bought no one.if you think its funny , you dont understand the situation. i despair of our fans sometimes.

 

[manxtoffee]

Typical glass-half-empty response there sirblue.
Did it occur to you that the team's results improved dramatically after the money grabbing little scrote left, no I guess not.

 

[sirblue57]

again, missing the point, we all wondered how we would cope losing ONE player,imagine if we let ten go, this site would explode.
