The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

[Blue peter]

This is hopeful news. But isn't Textors exclusivity agreement until 30th November?

And if Friedkins reignited interest is true, what has prompted it?

I don’t want TFG any more. Whilst they are undoubtedly the sensible choice, I want madcap Textor and his celebrity chums Jay Z and Beyoncé - Stallone and Judy D can come along for the ride too if he fancies it

Am gona go all Damo and say it's not happening.

I think it's Moshiri games.

These guys don't need to sell Crystal Palace shares mate.

Stop confusing us with a buttery biscuit base

Guess who's back, back again?
Friedkin's back, tell a friend.
Guess who's back, guess who's back,
Guess who's back, guess who's back... (ba-na-na)

I’ve created a boss, 'cause nobody wants to
Deal with small fries no more, they want Friedkin,
I’m chopped liver.
Well, if you want a powerhouse, this is what I’ll give ya:
A little bit of action mixed with some big figures,
From Ferraris to films, he’s got the tricks, quicker!

He’s the man, the mogul, the jet setter,
Put Roma on the map, now they’re better!
He’s got an empire, and it’s only gettin' bigger,
Take over industries like it’s all in a flicker.

Now this looks like a job for Dan,
So everybody just sit and stand,
'Cause we need a little vision from the man,
'Cause it'll feel so empty without Dan!

(Verse)
He’s been up in the air, flyin' high with flair,
Buildin’ up riches without a single care.
Who else can produce Nomadland?
Who else can steer Ferrari like he’s got the whole brand?

So this billionaire’s everywhere, now it’s time you stare,
From Texas to Rome, Friedkin’s takin’ the chair.
He’s got soccer teams and movies in his hand,
Steppin’ into deals like only Friedkin can.

(Bridge)
Now this looks like a job for Dan,
So everybody just sit and stand,
'Cause we need a little vision from the man,
'Cause it'll feel so empty without Dan!

(Chorus)
Guess who's back, back again?
Friedkin's back, tell a friend.
Guess who's back, guess who's back,
Guess who's back, guess who's back... (ba-na-na)

(Verse)
He’s not just any guy, look what he’s buildin’,
From fancy rides to films, it’s Dan Friedkin!
Turnin' everything he touches into gold,
While others dream, he’s in control.

It’s his world, we’re just living in it,
Business moves so smooth, you’d swear it’s infinite.
He’s got vision, he’s got style, he’s got the clout,
Friedkin in the game? There’s no doubt.

(Bridge)
Now this looks like a job for Dan,
So everybody just sit and stand,
'Cause we need a little vision from the man,
'Cause it'll feel so empty without Dan!

(Chorus)
Guess who's back, back again?

Guess who's back, guess who's back,
Guess who's back, guess who's back... (ba-na-na)

Did you have that lined up and ready to go?

What a scoop

He's been on it all day...I believe Jay Z helped him

 

[dublinbluenose]

Wonder if this has anything to do with RMF debt being reduced by the club

 

[Infernus]

I think many in-the-know observors said TFG will be back. And also Textor wasn't a serious player. It seems to be playing out like that doesn't it?

I think it's like when players are touted to be joining us. I won't believe it until the player is in the shirt at FF. Same with this. Just go with the flow. Some people's approach is to criticise fans but what do we know? We just wait. And see what unfolds next.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Well what a shocker. Could never see this coming. Bar from that's how they've bought everything. I hope Moshiri tells them to spin on it. Had they bleeding taken over when they should have, we probably wouldn't be in the position we are in the table.

Guess who's back, back again?
Friedkin's back, tell a friend.
Guess who's back, guess who's back,
Guess who's back, guess who's back... (ba-na-na)

It was only a matter of time before the boss lost it, I can't imagine the stress of thinking of Everton all day, everyday. Didn't think it would manifest quite like this though...

Probably just coincidence
