So interesting that ConnorFrandelino for those of us following this closely. Moshiri has obviously decided following the summer / stall in the stadium development that he is going to get more heavily involved. Walking in with Allardyce and Walsh was huge, especially after Hunter / Prentice had slated them all in recent days.
It also solves the mystery behind Keith Harris being appointed to the board, and by whom.
It would appear Corrupt Sam has been asked not really to just keep us safe (which we will do anyway) but essentially do the 'root and branch' review of the playing squad while big Ryazantsev will be there to do the same to the comms and management departments.
Huge changes incoming again then.
So...Moshiri doing what he promised...changing things. Even the appointment of Allardyce has its own particular reasoning. He will sort out the playing side,including the attitude of the playing staff and the Russian will sort out and 'upgrade' Evertons admin. Despite what some may think of Allardyce, he is /was probably the best available to do what Mosh has in mind. Within 18 months the whole Everton operation will be slicker, smoother and more efficient. Sam will have done his job,the Schneiderlings and Mirallas axis will be gone,and Everton move forward to the next stage. I personally don't think Sam was hired primarily as a relegation fire fighter...there was never a great chance of us going down,but he has been hired to clean up and focus the coaching and playing side. So I agree with orlys post (this time!

)
Think on this as well....Everton will never be successful unless they are given the same chance as other clubs, and Everton must not, therefore hamper themselves ,handicap themselves, by sticking to outdated,emotional 'Everton values'. We must level the playing field up as much as we can,and if this means being more ruthless and slightly less 'wonderful',so be it. As long as BK is around there will be an active soul to Everton, but we must remember that you don't win anything trophy wise without ruthless determination these days.
