Are the Collyer brothers still interested in the club?

Number_25 · September 25, 2011

Some of you might know who Paul and Ov Collyer are, they are the developers of the original Championship Manager series (they now spearhead Football Manager). I remember a few years ago they tried to buy the club to no avail.

They are both massive Toffees, and quite rich to match. I know that Paul is a constant lurker on aload of forums and as a Everton fan he'll probably visit this forum sometimes.

Maybe we could get him to edit the real life database so we have loads of funds next season

Never heard a bad word about that Paul me. Never heard a word like, but definitely not a bad one.

Well I love Football Manager and people that might buy Everton with more than a tenner to their name.

Also Paul, make Barkley dead ace on the next game FFS give us something to play with.

Football Manager is one of my favorite games! Didn't know the people that made it were massive Toffees!

Awesome to hear!

If they are massive Everton fans I doubt Kenwright would sell to them. They wouldn't be able to take their kids to school, he wouldn't want that for them. Great guy.

Tubey · September 26, 2011

They're nowhere near rich enough to run a football club. On a par with Kenwright, for example.

There'd be little point.

Mad Evertonians though. Seem like nice lads too.

I had read a TW article a while back and Ov had commented on it.

I didn't know that Ov was a lurker aswell.

I was a beta tester on Football Manager Live and I actually asked Ov if he was interested in buying the club.

Pretty much said what Tubey said that he'd love too but he has nowhere near enough money, he also had a account on GOT but he wouldn't tell me who he was.
