yet another sick joke of a transfer window needing players and not getting them. i doubt the next 80 minutes will reveal a nice surprise.

it's been like this for too long now. i'm sick of us just eeking our way through life.
 
Get out billl please, get out

the club is dying, we are nothing now, when are the fans gonna get off there arses and do something? we, as everton are a done club. we are behind all types of clubs, and now lets be realistic, that includes stoke sunderland and bolton. we have gone from being the team that will break the top 4 to this. RS fell out the top 4 and we should have replaced them but no, we have the joke of our board. come on lads let fecking do something before its too late.

Its not just kenwright, our squad has the quality to be top 8 atleast...
 

He definately needs to make a decision about whether he can progress the club to the point of regularly winning things or not; or failing that whether to accept reality and position the club for long-term stability (which will mean selling players when the idiot clubs wave huge amounts of cash under our noses, not spending idiot amounts of money on players, getting Moyes to agree to it, improving the national and international scouting network and not paying above a certain level for wages) - obviously this last choice requires him to explain that to the fanbase; personally I would prefer the latter given that (i) we dont know who we would get as a sugar daddy and (ii) it is the sensible course to take when faced with a situation as unsustainable as modern football is.

As for "we have gone from being the team that will break the top 4 to this", thats not just down to us having a bad season - Villa, Spurs and of course City have spent idiotic amounts of money trying to break into the top four. The RS have spent similarly daft amounts to try and get back in. Even if we had consistently played well this season it would be a stretch to make 4th.
 
I still see the problem being Green & Earle, they are the ones with the wedge and refuse to put it on the table for Moyes.

We all know that Bill has no cash & no way of raising cash, no way of the club raising cash (unless players sold), he will be the target though when we need to be getting onto these 2. They are worth vast amounts and could solve most of our problems themselves, without looking for 'foreign investment' 24/7.

It can't be very encouraging when any suitors look at the club, consider the amount needed and then the thought hits them "how come these 2 that are minted beyond belief, don't fancy putting their money into it"

They both avoid all the flack, and haven't really had any fan pressure, as it all goes at Bill who then waxes lyrical about his formative years and it gets dodged.


There's a damn good chance that any potential buyers won't have the funds that our present owners do, and they must be able to turn it round as a business ffs, they seem to have managed quite well with their other concerns.
 
i think we are seeing a snowball effect here. When the press start with a story like this it tends to run.

Agree with that. Kenwright really isn't the fundamental problem, the people he handcuffed the club to are. They're sitting in their luxurious dens barely conscious of the frustration.

As far as new owners looking at coming in and wondering if it's worth the effort if the exisiting board cant be arsed investing: I reckon they'd realise that Earl/Green came in looking for the stadium gravy train and a quick sell off, and that they now just see it as a safe place to park a few million quid in shares...not something they take seriously as a business venture. People with energy and vision and a feel for football would see the value of investing in Everton. The big stumbling block will be what price is being asked per share. That's why Kenwright wont go to an industry specialist and formally hire them to explore a sale: it'd nmean hammering out a clear costing of what the owners are willing to sell for - a damn sight more than the £1000 per share or so they paid I'd wager, and supporters would be ouitraged at the mark up in profit they'd be looking for. Kenwright and the others just want to keep it in house and hope that a buyer falls into their lap - nice and cosy. They'll never seek to professionalise the approach to selling the club and even the Echo are critical of that!
