The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

[jamieni]

TFG are pretty much hands down the least bad option. Still don’t understand how they could get around the 777 liability issue though

I’m still of the view that issue was somewhat overstated as a pretext to withdraw while they played hardball with Moshiri.

Things have changed A LOT since our last meeting.

I'm interested to know what's changed for them in the last few weeks, other than the Textor stuff. Clearly monies owed to A-Cap/777 were a sticking point for them previously - has there been a breakthrough in the Leadenhall case or something?

For all we know, Friedkin may have been doing exactly what they did at Roma.

Walking away from the negotiation to only then re-enter several months later and agree a more favorable deal.

Toyota are a super efficient business too.

So much so that many companies have adopted "The Toyota Way" as their business philosophy for their organised and lean approach

Don't mind if we do!

Hold on , the Friedkins made their money selling Toyota's , they don't own the company .

Why do you think Toyota are going to sponsor us ?

Be made up if they did though

So.........................what's the Roma take on the DiRossi sacking and CEO resignation mate ?

Are fans up in arms against our saviours ?

We’ll be sponsored by Texas Dan’s Crazy Low Low Prices Toyota Dealership!

Wait.... They're not involved in Toyota?

And this is why you should ignore everything that I say...

It's obviously where davek came up with the notion that TFG are tyrekickers ( or should i say tirekickers ?)

 

[Tony’s Carp]

I don't think so, Friedkins were linked with Ragnick a while back weren't they.

Just checked back and the Rangnick story was an Alan Nixon fabrication so yeah don’t hold your breath.

Just out

….hopefully he gives Dyche the ammunition to get us in a better position, be good to see Dyche with proper support and a decent DoF.

of curiosity, why does Dycge get given a chance with proper support, and KT gets replaced? I think he’s done pretty well given the state of our club and resources. Or have I read it wrong and you think he’s a decent DoF?

…headlines on Sky Sports & now BBC;

Assuming that TFG get it over the line do we expect Dyche to be bulleted straight away like that have just done at Roma with Di Rossi?

Textor said he would fund transfers in January, what do we think TFG would do / what's their track record on taking over Roma?

When he took over Roma mate he hired Mourinho and backed him with close to 200m, I seriously doubt he'll look at Dyche and think he'll do fine

Brother....you've returned.

 

[Lob]

We have been here before Giulia and it didn't take very long for them to ditch us due to the mess they were inheriting. I suppose you could argue that they already know the mess so wont pull out again.

 

[bluestevon]

Reports over the weekend suggested that it was their CEO who gave him the bullet, ultimately. She's since resigned.

Which if true suggests Friedkin allows the people he employs to make the football decisions

Wouldn't that be very refreshing
