He seems to want us to trust them almost blindly as the “honest” bidders even though their Dell claims are looking exaggerated at best, or just outright false.
In some movies you have a piss stained tramp holding a sign stating 'THE END IS NIGH'.
Its looking alot like that thesedays.
Again if theyre his 'mates' and/or have asked him to push their name or if theyve fed him these misleading statements...
...or as someone said if hes been promised a board seat, I hope they get nowhere near the club.
The Dell thing is funny, it took us all 3 mins here to understand they have a history of lending to football clubs through their family investment vehicle. Largely it was hacks reporting it. If it was them who leaked it it was a poor move, I think many gained an unhealthy mistrust due the short lived boom and bust of realisation. Followed by a knock out of the an all equity bid and a Saudi royal - all co-ordinated of course. They lost the PR last weekend.
I actually like what’s the two lads bring to the table in terms of skills and track record of competency, to my mind it’s prob the only thing you can objectively analyse amongst potential bidders.
As for Paul and media in general, if you are going to inhabit and cultivate that space and role and be close to power brokers, there has to be a pay off, prepare to be activated knowing,y or unknowingly with info - if you get that close and hope to get closer if successful. The problem with social media reporting and even reading is that it’s not like the printed media - it’s not subject to a professional edidtor. We aren’t going to open the guardian tomorrow and see someone talk figures like 400 and 800 mill needed, it’s both the brilliance and cringiness of the format and the personalities, but somehow draws on both scores and equal measures, in both polarisations.
Perhaps B&D + Esk are all from the same zone as Moshiri.
Little geeky creatures that companies appoint to sit in the dark and look at numbers.
B&D have taken their skills and made a packet on numbers knowledge + basic ideas...same as Moshiri.
I highly doubt they have any clue on branding, image, PR, marketing or suchlike. Probably the worst people to be stuck with at a party.
They ALL seem really misguided on what should be released to the media.
Look at how Esk makes us look bad with false administration claims
If anyone thinks he's "a numbers guy" or "Everton financial expert"
I suggest you think again.
I don’t understand being disingenuous with the Dell involvement. It’s obvious he wasn’t involved directly nor would it be anything different than their normal involvement.
You have to be skeptical of bids where the lead guys have less cash or stature. Dell doesn’t need B&D for anything, there’s no reason for him to put his money in last. Same with the Manou guy with the Saudi Prince behind him. If the Prince or whatever had the type of money to change things at Everton he wouldn’t partner with anyone.
Given the current options I still think MSP in some form is the best group for the club. It doesn’t mean they’ll get it but they are the best of this lot.
You and I are fans, lets say were both worth alot and want to buy the club. Money is worth nothing at that level unless you can get what you want.
We agree the loan structure with MSB and as we have zero experience make it known that were open to people joining with us.
For me the dreamteam on paper is B&D + MSP. It gives us everything bar the big money investment
We'd do the same.
The ONLY thing i absolutely hate are liars and Esk, B&D and the media running with false reports annoys me.
If I had £1bil in my skyrocket I'd buy the club with motives like Jack Walker at Blackburn. These clowns seem more focused on getting their names out.
A serious bidder has nothing to gain by promoting their interest.
