The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

[Nymzee]

I'm not standing for election. I'm putting my personal capital into buying shares in the club.

And then, in your words, "offering your expertise to the club".

If you can't back up your expertise to the fans, what makes you think you should be able to?

 

[Damo_1878]

Personally, I think its great that you are supporting Bill Kenwrights family by taking his shares off him.

Well done Damo.

I'm supporting Everton Football Club, is what I'm doing @Goat

I'm not putting it on this public forum.

I'm not asking for your blessing either.

No you're not, the shares are all owned by individuals, you are buying a share of a person, Everton Football Club does not benefit at all.

Then you truly can't believe in your own expertise.

I'm successful enough not to need to do what you demanding, thank you.

That is what I've just said, and the club benefitted when it - issued the shares

Lay out your credentials for the forum.

He runs away when he takes some flack on a forum but thinks he is the right person to champion the views of the fanbase.

He doesn't have the character, knowledge or credtionals to represent himself, never mind the fanbase.

But on a serious note AGMs do need to be reinstated. It's a very quick win for the new owners to build trust with the fanbase.

 

[Damo_1878]

Be interesting if they ask again.

Just a reminder. Yes, all the major stakeholder groups and many individual fans and shareholders want it's return:

They apparently have. It was discussed in the EFCSA December 2023 meeting with the club. It was also mentioned again in the April 2024 meeting

EFCSA's constitution states that they will act constructively with all members including non-association shareholders to these ends:

It was also discussed directly by the EFC FAB

The members of the FAB has gone on record (to me) as saying they wish to see it's reinstatement

Why they've asked the question specifically in the letter prospective owners:

Anyway, lets get back on topic.

Danny F will be the best owner this club has had since Peter Johnson.

Vault me.

You have no comprehension at all about me.

Get back to sticking middle fingers on here in a vain attempt to antagonise me. I told you already I couldn't care less if you do that or anything you say.

Oh I know that, just seeing if he'll ever decide to change tack. Probs texting the Esk as we speak for some pre-written credentials.

OH. Don't you worry @Goat. I will.

Who do you want to own us?

 

[Damo_1878]

Who do you want to own us?

I've said many many times, I'm not advocating anyone.

I want more details from them on what they propose to do.

Surely you must prefer someone? Since you don't think these guys will do any good.
