The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

[Dumbfounded]

hopefully TFG can learn from mistakes in regards managers, as I think a new manager bounce is the only thing that could save us from massive downturn in results and points between now and the end of February, I don’t think Dyche is about to grow a pair and change!

 

[Old Blue 2]

Games this season where we lead 2-0 but lose 3-2.

Well it could be that, but in the Friedkin Group thread...

PL are timing their run beautifully so that confirmation arrives at the exact moment we all decide we don’t want them any more.

I would take them any day over the casual incompetence of moshiri

 

[Cjplennon]

Sorry you misunderstood or more likely I didn't express myself very well.

Yes , Moshiri remains in charge ( sort of ) and can do so for as long as he wants but in the eyes of most Evertonians the relationship was doomed to fail from the time that he appointed Benitez.

Agreed, shows a lack of understanding about the history!

 

[Toffeepot]

Agreed, shows a lack of understanding about the history!

'He lives in the area' and 'has a folder full of players' have got to be the worst justifications for a multi million pound salary appointment ever. Anywhere. Ever

How long has it been now?

How long has it been now?

We`ve been looking for competent owners since the early 90`s, so whats another couple of months added onto the last 30 odd years.
I don`t know if its a good sign that we are n`t getting weekly updates about how everything is going fine, as when the 777 deal was going through we were being assured it was only a matter of time before it went through right up until it fell through.

A hard deadline for me would be 20th December, which in practical terms is the last working day before Christmas. Thats 5 weeks away this Friday.
I think that would be a pessimistic view of how long more its likely to take.

Once we reach the end of November, it could happen at any time afterwards. It was suggested last week that whilst things are not dependent on the Leadenhall court case, the Friedkins would like that issue resolved in tandem with the approvals being granted. But the various authorities that need to grant approval won't have that in mind. The only thing I could think of there is that The PL grant a conditional approval linked to resolution of the A-Cap debt but I've not read anything to suggest that that's a possibility. I don't think there will be a co-ordination of the approvals either. 777 were approved by the FCA for example.

That could be possible, rumours it could be early December too ?
