New Everton Owners: The Friedkin Group

[tommye]

Yeah agree that Chong has put the work in during this rudderless period, so hats off to him like.

That big beautiful shiny new thing with the crap lights at Bramley Moore wouldn't be there if it wasn't for him.
Think we can guarantee that at the very least.

Played an absolute blinder tbf to him

Hated within a year by almost all Evertonians.

When the ale is £10 a pint at the ground.

Colin Chong deserves the Freedom Of the Club the work that man has put in over the last 2-3 years.
I'd put a statue of him on those plinths before most others.
What he's achieved under the circumstances is outstanding and deserves recognition.

Hell never be forgotten by me.

Took reigns of a circus, has ran the club seemingly by himself and brought us a record turnover for Shirt Sponsorship and overseen turbulence quietly and with astuteness.

I know he was brought in as a stadium chief, but if the Friedkins are looking for someone local to assist, I wouldn't be against him at all.

Deserves all credit he gets.

It'll be true.

They're owners. They are the enemy. Just a matter of time before they're in the same category as Johnson, Kenwright, Gregg, Moshiri.

Great attitude.

 

[hippopotamus]

I do agree.

But what do you actually want him/them to say then?

"We've just bought a rotten club with piss poor fan base and no potential at all. Oh, fcuk! Can we cancel the deal?"

 

[barneygumble]

Some of the stuff bobble releases is class, but not a fan of him announcing the new owners before any official announcement.

We probably should have a head of communications to stop the leaks... oh. We do?

 

[Exeter_Gently]

Fellow Blues...Don't let anyone bring you down today!

Enjoy the fact the Moshiri and more importantly the Kenwright era has been consigned to the dust bin.

Up the toffees!

Hohohoho

And a couple of tra-la-la's

A day we’ve waited a long time for, hopefully the end of the recent darkness under Moshiri, but actions speak louder than words. I remember thinking the same when Moshiri took over and that turned into a nightmare. This simply has to be different.

This is why Dave is ahead of the curve. He knows all owners end up hated, so just skips to the end, and avoids any of that brief period of optimism.

You hated the jumped up car salesman from the get go. So you're already ahead of the curve, always the Genius David

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Nothing will change overnight.

It will be slow and painful.

Disagree with that. While we won’t be a Man City, there are immediate gains to be had from the stadium and plain old proper business acumen. We have been rudderless for over 30 years but those days are over.

Actions>words.

Live in the now...i couldn't think of anything worse than wishing my life away on misery.
