Why we dont 'need' investment

Status
Not open for further replies.
It truly does.

What comes across from many loud and clear: "Ooooh, it's a nasty world out there beyond Bill; it's frightening to take a chance...we might get it wrong and it all leads to disaster. Let's just keep our heads down and appreciate what we have"

When the **** did Evertonians become such utter cowards?

Cowards? Who the **** are you to label Evertonians cowards? Shame on you.

Sad that you're that lost in your bile filled anti Kenwright (& Moyes - lol) agenda that you've decided that Blues being happy with the start to the season = everyones happy with the status quo in the boardroom.

No, we're cowards who are killing the club
 
It's truly toe-curling stuff.

The club is a basket case, one bad season away from a catastrophe. The manager is currently six players down on the threadbare squad he ended last season with, but "we dont need investment".

The lunatics really have taken over the asylum.

Haha, what a pile of ****e that statement is. "Toe curling" indeed lol.

Every club is a season away from disaster in the PL or would you care to enlighten us with your wisdom as to how we are in any way more exposed to that reality in 2012?
 
Just look how close Rangers Portsmouth , Leeds , have come to oblivion, not forgetting our neighbours who Hicks and Giblet had taken right up to the edge of the abyss , that's how easy it is for the world to collapse around us.
Don't forget we had 3 years when we barely spent a penny and Kenwright still had to beg the banks not to ruin us (His words), To say we don't need investment is incredibly naive .
 

we do need investment, we have a good first eleven with decent options from the bench but we need to strengthen in order to break into the top four .champions league is the holy grail ,once in we can reap all the rewards that come with playing against the elite of europe, not just the huge amounts of money but as a selling point to new and better players who as we know all want champions league .investment if managed well will bring success thats why we need it.
 
Papering over the cracks here. Just like people are with the summer signings.
We need investment to get to the next level. I dont wanna be 'plucky little Everton' who get top 10 on a ****e budget. I wanna be the Everton who attract top quality players from around the world and compete for major honours. Under Kenwright and co. thats not happening.

That cos there not much money to be made, the players and agents take most of the money.

See what happens when we win a couple of games.?


Yeah the Blue Union do one.
 

To see how Moyes has evolved this team during his decade in charge, with a minimal net spend, is nothing short of incredible. But, how long can he continue to do so? How long will he want to try and do so?

The club needs investment to clear debts and pay wages etc and the manager needs investment to continue improving this team.

Do we really want to wait another decade for this squad to make the next step up?
 
Fury? I'd be over the moon if we ever won another trophy. You really write some tripe sometimes.

The undoubted FACT of the matter is that it will NEVER, EVER happen under this regime. 13 years this failure of a chairman has been in charge and we have a shoeing from Chelsea in one cup final to show for it.

You think that's a good performance and are happy with 'the progress'? Great stuff. If you dont mind though I'll continue seeing it for what it is: a disgrace.

Whoah didnt mean to touch a nerve mate, was just wondering if we did win a trophy under his stewardship would your approach soften, surely that would be progress - by your own argument.
 
The thread should have ended on the first page.

No investment - Going backwards.
Investment which is spent wisely on promising players/established players - Going forwards.
Investment on crap which Villa have done - Just no.

The reason Villa are like that is because they spunk a **** load on average players. Darren Bent cost around £24 million and we have Jelavic who cost a snippet of that and is better in my opinion. They overspend on English players who's value is high. We however only spend fairly low amounts on English talent, unless we produce it ourselves. Our big money signings are usually foreigners and you can see with people like Fellaini and Jelavic why that is wiser.

If we keep signing people like that, and with Mirallas who showed some nice movement yesterday, we are well on our way to competing for European places consistently and pushing on even further.

We need investment, every club does.
 
Is why we need investment.

I do think the chairman/manager relationship at the club is special though and why we are a very stable club. I don't think it's that 'special' that it should override a takeover though.

I think if Moyes was asked, 'Do you want to be best mates with a skint owner, or do you want a purely business relationship with a mega rich owner?', he'd take option 2 every time.

The problem with a 'purely business relationship with a mega rich owner' is that Moyes would be much more likely to be sacked.

Undoubtedly the best post in the thread. It should end here. With me having the last word.
