The summer 2013 Everton transfer rumourZ thread

[D410]

According to some, as I said, its been 'leading to a fall' for about 7 years already. Of course no one is bullet proof. And Newcastle were battling relegation DESPITE investing millions in players.
I live in a nice house, but there are plenty of nicer houses around. Why don't I move? Because its too expensive. Thats real life...its called not spending money you havent got.

I certainly wish we'd gone out and spunked £25m thst we dont have on some no mark player just so we looked like not a joke club

McCarthy will only cost 15 million.

If Gareth Bale is worth £105m i find it baffling that our whole club isn't. Obviously not literally but kind of puts it into perspective.

Aren't cardiff/norwich in debt? I thought every club apart from Blackpool and one other are in debt. Why is it only us that are bothered about it?

 

[when i score we riot]

Sell the whole club, get cash.
Buy bale. Name him EVERTON.
Watch our club win stuff.

You're getting this wrong.

All those clubs you listed have money to spend. To invest. We don't have it. It's really that simple.

Saints for example, have a billionaire owner. Good for them. We don't.

I think the arguement you're making is that we shouldn't accept this fact. And you're right we shouldn't. But not signing anyone today doesn't make us a joke does it?

We actually have a very rich board of directors. The clubs I listed have spent on the back of the TV money, we turn over a lot more money than those clubs yet they can continue to outspend us.
When we have fans willing to accept this and call this transfer window some sort of huge improvement when all we've done is brought in 2 average, aging players, a back up goalkeeper and a Barcelona B player on loan sums us up.
