What is your line of work that you can look down upon a billionaire who owns Roma and soon Everton?
Haha
So your line of work , what you do for living defines your ability to have a poor opinion of a billionaire?
They didn’t create their own wealth they inherited it , not much to look up to there .
They have shown themselves to be able to manage their wealth and buy and invest in things that amuse or entertain them.
Wouldn’t we all like that freedom .
If only our forbears had made us wealthy .
Personally I look up to people who have overcome obstacles to success, or used their knowledge and skill for the benefit of all .
Let’s see how this lot manage us before we start swooning over them just because they are wealthy.
 


Aside from this coming from out of nowhere (and I think being the best group of the interested parties) the timing is not bad either. Theres a decent stretch till january to sort out any issues in the takeover. Assume they get in soon they can set up a backroom etc a month or two before the window opens. frustrating Dyche is rightfully under pressure but with the team relatively healthy and with a favorable schedule from now to november, Friedkin can have a little cushion likely weighing replacements. Regardless of frustrations I think we can muster some points over that stretch maybe even to the point where we are out of the bottom three come the new year or at least december. That said it will be completely acceptable to replace him regardless of the form by then but we may be able to operate with a little less panic in the january market.

Lot of interesting questions. State of Thelwell who they may favor with DoF. Do they simply place Lina Souloukou with us lol post quitting. We shall see

They should appoint her as CEO, she's a very very good one, at both Olympiacos and Roma did a very good job.

Fluent in English as well.
 
Could happen depending how the relationship was between then both, but is something that could happen. The board situation will be the first changes we can really see how the friedkin takeover wants to go

They knew each other from the ECA mate a both were members - it's why Friedkin we t out of his way to get her from Olympiacos.

I'm guessing he'll bring her here now too
