I want him to sell up and go. But, if he got rid of the not fit for purpose board, and replaced them with actual footballing people who know what they are doing, and he stopped intervening in footballing matters then I'd happily have him remain.

Basically if he had a brain transplant and was a completely different person he’d be able to stay. I agree I’d be happy with that.

Mosh can stay, the rest really need to pee off.

Fully with you. That seems to be the way through this to me.

Whilst he appears to be a hapless maniac, if Mosh could finally finally realise that sentimentality at board level has no place in modern sport and he employs some experienced commercial hard nosed directors, he will be the main beneficiary if and when he sells up.

As a by-product we might see something resembling entertainment at GP instead of just desperate efforts to stay alive.

If that's how he chooses to do it, that's up to him. But, I think he could do it easier, just look at his accounts, see how much has been wasted and decide he needs better/more experienced people around him.

Since Mosh has been here we have spent well in excess of 1.4billion pounds on wages, players, sacking managers, backhanders to Agents and paying the leeches on the Board.

Not being able to spend money isnt the issue, setting fire to it has been the issue.

Had we had room and scope to spend real money when Ancelotti was here, he might have stayed and we may have kicked on. That is where we were screwed over by the regulations.

The problem is you need to spend more than your mid table rivals to move up a level to where half decent players/managers see you as a respectable club to be at - that is always going to see us sailing close to the wind.

Unless of course we can seriously boost turnover with ridiculous sponsorship deals that aren't usually applicable to a club that isn't even in the lowest rung of European competition football.
 
I think the nostalgia of the fans created unrealistic expectations initially but kenwright constantly exploited that sentiment and further baked romantic notions in the fanbase even though consistent spot at top 4 was implausible. Clear example when he hired Martinez the whole "he promised me he'd get us into the champions league blather" I think kenwright was able to enthrall a naive and I'll equipped businessman like Moshiri into buying into his lofty pitch and this is why we're currently in disarray

I agree, it's unlikely we will be able to compete at the top and win things.

But we have gone from winning more often (so that we can at least have that joy of winning some gamss) to winning less and less, to the point of last season. But we now have a board and owner that is fine with us losing games and just say it was expected. They aren't just fine with if, they actually expect us to lose. How is that even remotely acceptable.

And that is the reason why as a fanbase we'll never be happy and rightfully so.

You have fans calling other fans happy clappers or bad fans whilst we sit in 16th having spent £500 millions.

You had fans calling other fans happy clappers or bad fans whilst we sat in 6th, playing in Europe regularly winning most weekends having spent 50p.

Everton is too big a club to have ambitions of midtable survival every season yet thats all thats on offer as if the sporting competition was made fair the scab 6 would be off to the super league and UEFA, SKY, BT, PL et all lose their golden goose and £££€€€.

Usain Bolt doesn't get a 5 metre head start in a race because of his past achievements so why can Man Utd be allowed to spend hundreds of millions and pay players 300k+ a week without worry but Everton cant long term even if their owner is fronting the money fairly?

Its a complete con and no new owner, chairman or board outside of a gulf state can change that sadly hence why I wont be protesting regardless of my dissapointment at the current position we find ourselves in.

Midtable would be a big improvement on the debacle of last season

The board should all have resigned because they failed. They should be utterly embarrassed at what happened. Where is the accountability.

Maybe if we invested that 500 million more competently we would be in a better position to compete and there would be less discord between fans?

Kenwright is going to be either frozen in carbonite and placed in the new stadium or just become a disembodied head floating in a jar like in futurama that will infinitely oversee the club and continue to adversely affect the affairs of the club

They can’t even fit the pitch mate, how do you expect them to fit that bloater’s corpse as well?
