Usmanov

[Death]

The character Boris ‘the blade’, (from Guy Ritchie’s movie Snatch) was an Uzbekistani...

Soviet hero

Very very bitter. Throwing constant barbs at those in charge he was waxing lyrical about a short time ago. Quite bizarre actually how he’s done a complete 360 in a short space of time.

lol I think you mean 180?

 

[matty1878]

They’re fully open mate.

And I see no actual tangible evidence anywhere. Not a shred.

Just theories, conjecture and wishful thinking.

lol just us spending millions, and having a training called USM.... ok mate

ALI ALI OH

Is that true ? My dad served aboard a battleship on the Arctic convoys, he’d have been made up to know that someone Everton related appreciated it.....

100% true. Plaque on the main mast.
Must admit I read it a couple of times to make sure I hadn't imagined it.

Working behind the scenes. His clout could really give this club a boost. Ancelloti is a very good first step.

 

[hibbo'sclass]

My understanding is that Blankstone's quoted share price hasn't moved in beards because there is no activity, Moshiri was quoted as not wanting 100% holding and not in thebplans to dilute the minority shareholdings, so unless he's done a U-turn no imminent share issue.
I am not in the know therefore please treat the above as the ramblings of a bored man.

Where's the Gazetta dello sport article suggesting Usmanov dealt with getting Ancellotti in??

The share price was fixed when he took over. By a twist of fate, I actually talked to the Blankstone bloke who does, or did, Everton share trades. His name is Mike Lea, or sommet.

Thanks @roydo
So the club was only valued at 122.5 mil (3500×35000)?
Seem to remember that the talk at the time was about 5k per share valuing it at £175m or has old age crept in again?
The American guy taking over was reported to be 225m, but always thought that the papers had reported USD instead of £ and put the wrong sign up.

No idea mate. Just when a new owner rocks up, they tend to agree a sale price for other shares, so he hasnt got to pay more for essentially his own investment. Could be miles off mind.

Hate to be pedantic, but doing a 360 would mean he's come full circle. He's done a 180 here.

Yes of course, my bad

This.

Sure he was upset we sacked Silva to be fair

I think he was upset because on the morning of his sacking, he said that what Brands said a few days previous still stood and there wasn’t likely to be a manager change in the near future. Silva getting sacked later that day made he look daft, again.

 

[Wat Tyler]

This.

There’s no mention of Usmanov here
