The L.C.A.B. / THT Transfer Window Thread ....

[ijjysmith]

I love LCAB (although I don't love O'Hara as much as him)

 

[little curly alan ball]

Not quite sure what you think O'Hara would bring to our table LCAB? Its not as if we lack CM.

Can play wide left to , kid .

And IS BOSS !!!

 

[davek]

Quite clearly, they have.

Clearly the situation the Club are in spending wise is a poor one. No one would deny that. But how many other Clubs are in the same boat? Can anyone grab a net spend for each Club this season to see where we are in comparison?

How have they improved it?

Revenue increase? The proportion of turnover from tv plus higher gate charges accounts for almost all that increase. They've done almost nothing other than to hire a variet of CEO's who can get the market average for sponsorship deals.

My final pint is your saying to THT , " IF you know things ; POST ...!!! "

With respect kid .. CHEAP fukn shot ...

The SAME as we told you last week - when YOU WERE ASKING ABOUT INCOMINGS ; that WE DO NOT DO , RUMOURS / CONJECTURE OR KONBHEADS , NOW YOU want to know something specific , we should spill our guts ....???

I TOLD YOU , THIS IS A MONOLOGUE , but yourself , and the rest of the Kenwrong Lovers , please take this on Board ; the NEXT TIME YOUS FANCY BOOING AT 0-0 HALF TIME ... LOOK TO THE DIRECTORS BOX AND NOT THE DUG-OUT , AS THERE IS WHERE THE RESPONSIBILITY LIES ...

FACT .

VERO .

FUKN STAND ON ME !!!

Oh , and MY preferred option would be a collective of younger , PROACTIVE , CONNECTED , AND FINANCIALLY ABLE , people . Maleo r Female . Black , White , BUT BLUE !!!

I'd go from there .

I Thank You .

I agree LCAB. You and THT could post far more about what's going on than you do. I know for a fact you could.

But don't.

1. Why add fuel to an already burning fire
2. LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS
3. SNIDES only want the cork out the bottle


Anyway what I'm trying to say is - people don't expect LCAB/THT to spill everything. They can't. Nor should you expect them to.

really surprised moyes has not gone for this , i think the lad is top quality . any truth in the 3mill bid for kranjaer ?

 

[davek]

Mate , this is gonna be a Monologue as opposed to a Dialogue as ;

A ; I HATE THIS SUBJECT and ; B ; I've got Internet Sex soon , and haven't the time nor the inclination .

However ; AS YOU BROUGHT IT UP ,...

See ,... Me and My Brother , for starters , have somehow found ourselves as Cheer-Leaders #1 + #2 , for a Regime we DO NOT FAVOUR .

I have maintained , WE have maintained that , " We have the Club's Back , 24/7 , 365 ... " WE DO .

WE DO NOT HOWEVER , have the Board's Back ...

Why ..??? 'CAUSE WE KNOW HOW THEY CARRY ON .... FOR AN INDISPUTABLE FACT . HAVE DONE FOR YEARS , tbh ...

This , Mr. Kenwright thing ... The LOVERS Camp invariably state ; He's a Blue 1!! Davie Hickson , The Boys Pen !!!

Well , to my mind , that qualifies him to sit by me , but not to be the BIG DAWG ...
Under his tenure , indeed in recent times , we have seen Wyness and then Elstone appointed , effectively , C.E.O. 2 more GLARING anathema to Everton FC , and it's Ethos and Supporters , I cannot think of off the top of my head .

You mentioned , Gosling .... You also questioned BOTH ME AND THT over recent days as to , IF this one comes in ... IS that one coming in ..???

Well , THE KID WAS WORTH £3M !!! That's £3m WE DIDN'T HAVE , yet our Chairman , the man whom acts and speaks OFFISHALL St. Domingo , chose to fall out , on a personal level with the Ex RS Agent , and the kid left for nothing .

Irrespective of your own views on his abilities , he could play wide , and in 18 months had scored goals in victories over both Manchester and Lliverpool Reds .

Such behaviour is UTTERLY unbecoming to the role of Everton Chairman .

I would add , the sale of Finch Farm AND Bellefield , in an age of UNPRECEDENTED Premier League income , in addition to our having NO-BODY on more than £65K p/w , yet are STILL CONSTANTLY POTLESS !!!

Furthermore , Lord and Lady Grantchester sit as Board Members , SHE , Heir to the Moores Millions . Not THE Heir but AN Heir . Yet , have WE seen , Penny #1 ????
So , if not , WHY ARE THEY HERE ???
Phillip Green ... Brought in BY Soft Arse , again TO ALLEVIATE HIS OWN FINANCIAL INADEQUACY , but FELL OUT with same when eyeing the Top Chair ...

THIS , to me , an ALL - KNOWING , ORACLE Mufuka On-Looker , to suggest that he is less than proactive in seeking a replacement for him , in a role which he has consistently claimed to be ; Only keeping the seat warm ; is , like ... DUH !!!

We are now in the 3rd Transfer Window , whereupon , NOT just the BIG Teams , but , Newcastle Sunderland , B'ham , Villa , Stoke City , West Ham , Bolton , have spent MORE THAN US ....
This , to MY MIND , is the best side we have had since we won trophies . One would imagine that anyone , as you note , that rarely misses a - FREE game , would have tumbled to that . That we were on the VERY BRINK .

Yet , nothing . NOT A FUKN TAP .

I myself said , The Peanut Deal was MEGA for us . However , ITS UNY MEGA FOR US IF WE SPEND THE MONEY . If not , we just weakened our - MAIN FUKN ATTACKING ARTERY left side . Yet , again , he sits on his hands .

My final pint is your saying to THT , " IF you know things ; POST ...!!! "

LCAB, rumour on another forum today that Green is seeking out...but asking way over the odds per share (come on ladies and gents, we all know Earl is his proxy). Something like £4,000 each, mate. Sounds crazily high for an Everton share.

 

[Matt Damon]

Quite clearly, they have.

Clearly the situation the Club are in spending wise is a poor one. No one would deny that. But how many other Clubs are in the same boat? Can anyone grab a net spend for each Club this season to see where we are in comparison?

I'm sick of people peddling out the Darren Bent deal.

Milner, Sidwell had to go out first...

Bent's got about 8million in add on's ... so it's only about 16million in cash.

And Villa's SELL TO BUY still gave them change to spare (to pay off debts)

The numbers of buyers rather than sell to buyers .... is skewed to the latter.


However in relation to Everton's current owners - they may have doubled turnover but it's not DIVERSIFICATION in origins of turnover.


For that reason and for the reason that THT gives that net spending is actually a minus at ours, plus no stadium REdevelopment.

Means Kenwright should sell as soon as possible. WITHOUT UNDUE DELAY.

But only sell to a RESPONSIBLE owner with resources to put THE STADIUM REDEVELOPMENT in place.

 

[GrandOldTeam]

How have they improved it?

To claim the Club where in a better situation under Johnson is damn right ridiculous. I wouldn't even justify that assertion with an response.

We're currently in purgatory, I've said this since the Cup Final. I've routinely remarked on here "Remember that FA Cup Final squad...." because it'll no doubt be used as a yardstick - but purgatory under Kenwright is a substantial improvement compared to Johnson.

If Kenwright secured good, solid investment in the summer and we kicked on, history would have him down as an Everton great. A man who took control of the club at a time of absolute turmoil, appointed Moyes, kept the Club relatively steady and secured good, solid investment when so many other Clubs faltered (Blackburn (- wheres all that money their owners promised to spend?), West Ham, Man City (first two times), Liverpool, Man Utd, Notts County, Portsmouth, Leeds etc etc etc etc).

Of course, all that is swept away if he doesn't secure investment quickly.

I very much agree.

£140,000,000 for all 35000 shares at that price plus debt and the cost of a new stadium.

 

[RFUS]

I agree with Danny in that this season it's a 50/50 split for blame.

The board yet again did nought, and we missed out on some quality signings that would only have fetched more if we sold them on anyway (Dzeko, Hazard). Signings that would have given us a top 4 quality team.

However we're in 14th place right now. Behind Bolton, Stoke, Blackburn... need I go on? Moyes has buggered this season up badly too.


Failure + Failure = Failure. Who knew?

It DOES sound excessive , yes , Comerada Mia , lid .

Agreed .

 

[sw blue]

We stood on the brink of CL football at the beginning of the season. If we were in the top 5 right now, Pienaar would still be with us, Neville would be chirping left right and centre & Arteta would still be up on that grand pedistal we like to place him on.

FACT. The blame lies in all quarters. The board sit on their hands, the players wait for each other to pull a rabbit out of the hat on the pitch because they are too scared to **** up with the final telling pass/shot at goal.

I actually place Moyes least at fault. Despite the fact he doesn't seem to be able to motivate the players, he assembled a great looking squad. A squad that is capable of plaing silky joined up football. Something we couldn't even see over the horizon 3 & 1/2 years ago. How many times have squad over the years stated they want to play great football? This year we had nearly all ingredients and we fell flat on our faces.

Are we a Donovan short? Has Moyes failed to find the right blend in his squad? Or has the team just not managed to pull out the performances this year?

ANSWER: ALL OF THE ABOVE

 

[stevietoffee]

whats the deal with neville atm ??? 2.5 mill to spurs with 2 loans coming the other way ? this story wont go away , does captain pip want out ?

 

[davek]

£140,000,000 for all 35000 shares at that price plus debt and the cost of a new stadium.

As I say, the valuation sounds crazy, if it's anywhere near the truth we have our answer as to why no one is said to have beaten a path to the front door.

If he was wanting his money back off *Earl's* shares it'd be £32M! That's a Fellaini and Rodwell sale away...give Bill a chance, Mr Green, he's busy selling other players right now. Call back in the summer.
