this was th c**t who was banging on about Southgate

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

Well, you may well be right there

Oh lord imagine how fuming he is that he wasn’t consulted on this

The next podcast will be appointment listening.

Always thought that myself, very strange guy at times, could be just an attention seeker.

Just a bore that has no friends in real life so comes on here posting the opposite of what everyone else says so that he can act edgy and cool.

I've had him on ignore for over 15 years, so he must be an adult by now and is still doing it. It's quite sad really.

Guys, this is the light at the end of the tunnel.
Finally this era of awfulness is nearing an end and we approach happier times

I would imagine they will appoint a new CEO and board from day one. That's what they did at Roma.

Unless things stay as bad as they are on the pitch, or heaven forbid worsen I think they'll hold fire on Dyche. But they'll be in on the ground from now. I really hope results improve so that it isn't as much of an issue as it currently is.

Be interesting to see what they make of Thelwell. I would not be surprised if eventually they appointed someone who had oversight of both Everton and Roma as a group sporting director.

A new BOD has to be priority as the one we’ve had, and the interim one hasn’t been fit for purpose (and/or has been completely consumed by the stadium project)

Will be interesting to see how far along they are with those plans given they’ve come back to the table on this and whether they can start implementing them on day 1.

What a great day, this guy won't mess about with mediocrity Dyche is on borrowed time

This is why this news is boss for me and given me a massive boost, knowing no matter what Dyche does this season he's gone.

I'm also not sure why sone are saying it'll take months .

Once the papers are submitted it can take anything from 10 days minimum to 'at most' four weeks, with the average coming in at around two weeks.

The ones which took a lot longer (Newcastle etc) was entirely down to it being during the pandemic and lockdown.

By mid October at the latest Friedkin will have the league approval and be the new owner.

Didn't Sir Jim'll Brexit for You take nine weeks?

Does this mean we're not [Poor language removed] anymore

Been out all day and just heard the news!
Fantastic stuff, the mad American billionaire we wanted more than the other mad American billionaire is a toffee!

 

[bluestevon]

You're using THAT as the reason you are against him mate.

Give it a break for a day.

The Italian ultras idolize Rossi and in no way shape or form is it based on anything besides that.

Very pleased Friedkin is back as Textor seemed more instability.

With the new stadium and Friedkin writing off £400m-£500m therefore reducing the interest payments which take up a load of the revenue, we should have a decent amount to build a new team.

We'll also have a number of high wages coming off the books, so I can imagine a huge summer.

Hopefully, we'll have sensible wages to turnover and still money to spend.

Yes. Bring in Jo & Robinho.

I hope they appoint that wench from Roma. Now she is a CEO you would definitely want to get into a headlock!
