Think means he might buy all Moshiri’s shares or just some?
Clearly doesn’t want to rush spending any money until he’s done his due diligence. Equity bit im not so sure on. 😂
Yeah it’s just people filling an information vacuum with speculation. I imagine it will take a bit of time to choose the preferred bidder. Don’t think it’s as simple as Moshiri picking the one he likes the sound of. Presumably there’s preliminary work to be done before moving forward to a period...
Yup. It’s pretty widely accepted that none of those oligarch types operated without say so from Putin.
I mean im not condoning human rights abuses in any way. It’s just that we can’t disconnect ourselves from the world. We buy products made in China, petrol and diesel from god knows where and...
Absolutely. We’re not making the decision and we aren’t privy to what bidders’ plans are for the club or who is backing them. I mean we all knew who was bankrolling Moshiri and from a morality point of view Usmanov is highly questionable as are all the oligarchs who profiteered from the collapse...
Tbh it’s difficult to make an informed choice about any of the bids given there’s no real communication about plans for the club other than a few sound bites being briefed via the media.
Let the chips fall where they may! Hopefully whoever comes in sorts out the finances and gets us back on...
In essence it’s irrelevant whether an owner is an Evertonian or not. It’s more relevant that they can run the club competently.
Whether they spent their formative years in the Boys Pen or not, whoever owns the club will be a de facto Evertonian due to their vested interest in seeing the club...
We’ve got to have realistic expectations. Probably a couple of seasons bumping around the bottom half before wriggle room for spending.
Also potential owners probably see the stadium as a cash cow for events etc. They might be quite happy to fund mid table mediocrity, guaranteed PL revenue etc...
Re 777 I suspect the reason Moshiri went with them was they were the only seemingly viable proposal at the time (despite being hugely dodgy) and no doubt in part because of looming points and deductions and potential relegation being factored in.
Circumstances have now changed so presumably...
If they’re backed by a serious billionaire as per reports then all good! Definitely more exciting to have people with an affinity for football in charge. Doesn’t matter if they’re Evertonians or not but that’s a bonus.
Main thing is they sort out the finances and run the club properly.
Yeah my first big Everton memory was losing the 89 cup final to the RS. I was 8. Kind of assumed we’d be playing in cup finals every year and competing for trophies and it didn’t really play out like that lol
