The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

Id have thought more outlets would have picked up on the story.

Yep.

Utter bollocks from start to finish. The lot of it.

Hopefully with TFG after already doing the hard yards previously it should be a case of price agreed and job done, quick announcement and on to premier league approval? That is if there is any truth to this

That can't happen until after Nov 30th unless JT agrees.

All turning into a bit of a pantomime now this takeover stuff and not a Kenwright in sight!

Just get it sorted for gods sake!!

…but my gut reaction is this is good news because 2 buyers think we are worth investment.

It’s a weird one. Textor talks about the contract with Farhad, and clearly leaked his own bid, but there is no actual confirmation he has exclusivity. He called it a backstop date or something. Would be incredibly stupid (i.e. entirely normal for Everton) to give exclusivity to a buyer that was currently barred from buying the club, with no possible way of knowing when he would become able to buy.

I suspect more of an agreement confirming their intent to work towards the deal, giving a bit of assurance they aren’t wasting legal fees, detailing confidentiality requirements and granting access to our financial info. Mosh would have been crazy to give him contractual exclusivity, but then Textor would have been crazy to accept a gentlemen’s agreement with the not very decisive Mosh.

This is not true, he does not have exclusivity he can't have while still a shareholder in Palace

In the meantime - todays EFC actually have to win some games and point some points on the board.

“Car salesman”

You knew nothing about him until he popped up as a potential buyer.

You really come out with some absolute bollox at times. It’s borderline mentally unstable.

Don't forget... 'kin tyre kicker

It was interesting that Textor mentioned a couple of times that he could be gazumped and that Moshiri could still sell to someone else, think he is well aware of the TFG interest

Is that why Jay-Z is getting involved, scare them off.

Apparently they want Moshiri to drop his asking price.
