The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

So that's you told!

@davek is using his Moshiri strategy, no matter what the new owner says or who he is attack him, say he is a carpet bagger or an asset stripper. If, as in Moshiri's case, this proves to be correct, Dave will miss no opportunity to let us know. If, on the other hand, Friedkin turns out to be good, Dave will wait in the shadows looking for something about Friedkin he can attack.

Either way, Dave will claim to have been right. An amazing poster who can, and does , lead the rest of us by the nose...frequently.

Billionaire car salesman eh?

Must’ve sold a shitload of cars.

It didn't need to have to end with us being a footnote in Roma's history though.

Ladies and Gents, Davek LIVE.

Would someone kindly summarise

1. The consensus on if this is a positive or not?
2. The wild negative take(s) and who has given them
3. The wild optimistic take(s) and the offenders

Thanks

Sifted through the entire thread looking for the same answers.

33 pages of people being baited by davek.

Never change, GOT.

Do you reckon he has one of those flailing arm blow up tube things outside his lot?

I bet he does.

Those things are like a license to print money in the used car sales world.

Would make a passable reserve team goalie too

Park End Da here - if there's no news on this today, would we be forgiven in thinking this isn't as cut and dried as it seemed over the weekend?

Let’s say we rise like a phoenix from the ashes, Dycheballing our way to a Europa League berth next season. Let’s say we fall back in line with PSR and post our healthiest financials for years.

How exactly would those achievements be cheapened by sharing common ownership with a club in another country?

Will it proper decimate your soul if the auld fella reading the classified results goes “Liverpool 1, Everton (they’re owned by the fella who’s got Roma) 2”???

Lot of say we's there.

Lot of say we's there.

Lets be a bit more calm and considered today,At times yesterday you bordered on hysterical.

We are Everton, nothing is ever cut and dried.

Pointing out we stand to be enveloped by an organisation that will retain us as one of a number of football clubs is no big deal then?

That's quite besides whatever financial model we have imposed on us...and the impact it has on team building: "Hey you guys, we'll buy young and we'll buy cheap. It'll be swell".

But you have no qualms about it all.

Am pretty calm about it mate. It's our default coping mechanisms,so yeah you'd be forgiven.
