Usmanov

[Tim UpperBullen]

What amazes me is the constant doubting of these lads and their ability to massage the figures
I know there are accountants and businessmen on here ,but lets be honest none of them are at the same level as Moshiri and usmanov.
How many seen the 30m for the option to bid coming ??
It was all doom and gloom over the 110 m losses 4 hrs ago

I kind of did on twitter.......not exactly of course, but with those accounts coming it seemed obvious that something like this was going to happen

I look what he's done for Everton: record financial losses, terrible onfield results.

Maybe you give him a free pass just because he carried around Usmanov's money for years, but I wont.

Hang on. Haven't you previously slated him for not spending his money and now you're slating him for spending too much? His mistakes are surely in some hiring decisions - most thought Walsh was a coup, few could forsee what an expensive mess he would make. And investments don't reap immediate gains - he's clearly spending money with the plan that it will, over time, translate into success and therefore financial rewards.

I hope @Bungle is getting royalties here.

Yes spent absolute millions and backed each manager with hard cash, not his fault those choices, in the main were poor. If the choices were good and we had won things, you wouldn't be here moaning and no one would care about a spreadsheet. And besides the debt is Moshiri's, that is until he sells up and then it comes off the sale.

Now USM have paid £30m for option, does that mean Usmanov couldn’t join the board because it would be a conflict of interest?

Surely no conflict in financing the same club you're on the board of?

Moshiri is the Chairman of USM and a significant shareholder. The rules are exactly the same for both of them. That is that sponsorship from an associate company is fine as long as it is at a fair value.

No. I've slated him for handing over (largely the club's) money to people he hired who were useless at using it.
