New Everton Owners: The Friedkin Group

[jamieni]

Yup, this is how they roll. Some of us expected this after they pulled out. Let's hope they finish this time...

It was the old General Melchett bluff. Doing the same thing we’ve done seventeen times before is precisely the last thing they’ll expect us to do now!

 

[Llyrap]

Well we are in the stickiest situation since Sticky the sticky stick insect go stuck on a sticky bun.

Reminds me of Blackadder this

 

[Victus]

Dunno, beats the USM Arena anyway.

Toyota is a world-renowned brand. It sreams serious club to me.

I've grown weirdly fond of Bramley Moore if I'm honest.

Although could the club risk lashing a few quid in January in the knowledge that the deal is almost certain to complete?

If the deal is done in fairly short order (and most DD is done I assume) shouldn’t be a problem to get through PL tests before January.

Wouldn’t expect a massive splurge but given the squad has a couple of glaring weaknesses I would expect those to be addressed as a minimum.

Roma's CEO resigned yesterday after being verbally abused and threatened over the sacking of De Rossi.


Bring her over here Dan, there's won't be any of that from our fans for sacking Dyche after losing the first 4 games of the season.

I think Everton fans wouldn't be happy either to do something like that with Kevin Ratcliffe, if he was a manager here. Players complained at the board as well.

It's like you extend in a bad form and trust a manager despite that and then bin him after 4 games. Different situation with Dyche obviously.

Someone that is one of the biggest legends in the club history obviously has more credit than Dyche that hasn't had any connection before to here.

Just a shame he messed us around at the first attempt. I think the uncertainty helped fuel this miserable start.

Moshiri is the one messing around.

 

[Bedfordblue]

come on Dan - don’t let us down

 

[The binman chronicles]

He didn’t mess us around. During the period of exclusivity they found something which meant that they couldn’t legitimately go through with the purchase. Even if he has gone through with it, there’s not a cat in hells chance it would’ve positively affected our spending power in the summer. DCL wants out anyway, regardless of the situation.

Whatever was the problem then is magically not an issue now and he did the exact same thing when he bought Roma. It is a negotiating tactic.

You might think it had no effect, but people around the club obviously thought otherwise...

Never knew James May was a Roma fan.

 

[jinkyali]

Fingers crossed chaps

 

[Bez2k2k]

Smalling would do well at West Brom

Forgot about that tbf

 

[Davideeyore]

Does anyone know if this fella is going to be any good for the club? I mean you'd expect anyone to be better than Moshiri.

 

[Mrk]

I'd be delighted with this

I've grown weirdly fond of Bramley Moore if I'm honest.

Knowing Everton it would be "we realised that Evertonians kept using Bramley as the name for the stadium, so we're delighted to sign a 10 year deal with Golden Delicious and our new stadium will be called the Bramley Apple Stadium".
