Everton……that???

That's a whole lot of words saying exactly...........nothing.

Just read this.

There is nothing unknown, or of substance in that piece. Paul Joyce hasn't made any claims that should cause concern either.

Of course we can't assume things are all a formality, but someone would have to do a lot better than "Goodison News" has there to even raise an eyebrow.

Little detail and no ‘new news’.

It’s clear that Ratcliffe has nudged Joyce and asked him to include this as part of the Branthwaite media campaign.

What a sorry individual Ratcliffe is.

The so called story is a nothing story, and is all normal stuff that goes on. Any deal is probably and never will be a formality

The Times quote:

"Calvert-Lewin is not minded to sign a new deal while there is uncertainty at the top of the club, with the Friedkin Group doing due diligence after being granted exclusivity by the owner, Farhad Moshiri, to buy his shareholding. A takeover is not considered to be a formality, with due diligence offering the American group plenty to consider."

Nothing new in that. We know this is what's happening.

Exactly- what else do people expect from the due diligence period for this club? Our accounts must contain more horrors than Stephen King’s library.

Be like that scene from Dodgeball.

I would imagine rifling through the fictional accountancy of Moshiri and Kenwright would need severe due diligence i bet they cannot believe how badly this clubs been run

Absolutely this

Not something they (Friedkin Group) cannot deal with

Not sure why but that Joyce quote is what he said two weeks ago

Someone reposting it for clickbait

Article in the Times is not by Joyce, is Martin Hardy.

Exactly. Needs taking with a pinch of salt.

Agree, of course this isn’t a formality, we’ve been run worse than a tuck shop and it’s someone desperate for it to fall by the wayside

Friedkin Group will be very non public in how they go about things. We'll barely hear from them

So clickbait articles will increase unfortunately to fill the empty volume
