lol just us spending millions, and having a training called USM.... ok mate
You don’t think it’s possible for a company to sponsor an aspect of a football team without secretly owning it?

The pack across the park spend plenty of money and have the name of an investment bank on their shirts. Does that imply that the investment bank secretly owns the club?

Obviously, for those who wish to believe that Usmanov will be our generous benefactor, the fact that USM sponsor the training facilities gives a nice straw to grasp onto in hope.

But rationally, it’s not evidence that Usmanov owns a large share of Everton.
 
Feel a bit sorry for Moshiri.
Whenever something goes wrong it's his and Kenwrights fault, and when something good happens it's Usmanovs influence.
Maybe that’s why he’s kept Kenwright on board? Maybe he’s craftier than we think?

Keeping Kenwright around means there will always be a section of support who have such a psychotically venomous hatred for the man that they will hold him accountable for anything that doesn’t go quite right at the club.

Well like I say, I hope I’m wrong and your right for sure.

But in my view, there is no evidence to suggest he’s involved in anything beyond sanctioning sponsorship deals that may be perhaps slightly more commercially generous than usual due to his business links with Moshiri.

I just see no convincing reason for keeping his ownership so secret
 
Where's the Gazetta dello sport article suggesting Usmanov dealt with getting Ancellotti in??

Usmanov is 1 of the most secretive people in the world.

Thats a reason.

Heres a different question, what does he GAIN by declaring his interest?

I really don’t think that’s a reasonable, logical question to be put.

It’s kind of like religious folk, when asked for evidence for the existence of God, demanding proof of why he doesn’t exist.

Normal practice is that ownership of football clubs are not generally shrouded in mystery.

The onus is on those asserting secret ownership to provide evidence, not the other way around.

To be honest mate I asked a simple question, I didnt ask you about Adam and Eve.
 

Yeah I know you did.

And I just pointed out that it was a question that however answered, would add no weight at all to the idea that Usmanov is the secret owner of Everton.

I mean other than the man himself saying this :

"Everton is still far from where it should be. We will also help him. And how. This is my friend's club."

"In Britain, sports are too political, so to speak, a sphere. There's a tremendous strain today in general in business. Therefore it is not known."



You clearly wont be swayed and neither will I.
 
Our transfer record is getting leathered in January isn't it.
We need another CB - (better than Zouma)
We need...and have needed for ages - A whole Mid Field Unit, not a collection of poorly performing individuals, playing in Isolated i dividual positions, 2 X DFMs, a No.10 (or 3) a No.8, an Attacking Mid Fielder, a leftsided Mid Fielder, etc etc.
A proper CF,

A Manager that knows all of the above when he sees it - and how to use them properly...could be a tick there, if the rumours are true.

But No, we still have the risk that Moshiri will stick us with a short term...however Glamorous...vanity signing.
