Embarrassing comment, you do realise when he bought us not one single other person was interested right? And the club was sleep walking to the championship.
That's a straight up fact, as much as you want to ignore it.
You will never find an Evertonian who was around then who wasn't made up when he bought us, not a clued up one anyway.
Charles Noell and John Moores bid more for the club than Moshiri bought it for,the issue with their bid was that they wanted a totally new board a clean sweep, Moshiri was persuaded to keep the current board and that’s why he was successful, and it’s why we’re in this current paralysis

May I ask what paralysis?

We backed our manager to the tune of over 100million last window.

And the Stadium hes funding seems to be coming along nicely.

Did they though? We hear all the time about these so called bids, how serious were they? We get stories about current ones too. What was there over all plan and vision?
Moshiri came in and promised a ground and funds to spend, we did get both, so at the time it was a sound sale and we choose the right man, at the time.

If you are saying Kenwright took the lower offer he deserves a lot of credit for not trying to maximise his revenue from share sales.
 
I don't think Moshiri had any credible plan in place once he bought in.

He knew at an overall level what he wanted but had no understanding of how to get there and relied on a combination of his own opinions and bad advice.

The writing was on the wall from the off. No credible investor would have bought a majority share and not filled the board and CEO positions with their own appointees.

It's probably correct to say that those appointments may well have been equally as disastrous or worse if he had made them.

Kenwrights chairmanship is undoubtedly one that has veered from managed stagnation and decline to near catastrophe though, so when the history of the period is written, he will be judged accordingly.
I think this is probably what happened. Moshiri looked at Kenwright and thought the club had been doing better than expected with no money, imagine what he could do with a lot.
Why he's not got rid of Kenwright is beyond my ken?

What paralysis ? The paralysis of having the same failing board throughout this new ownership , the same people who nearly relegated this club 5 months ago, the same people who wrote off 5 games this season before we were able to call on 1 striker, I mean who doesn’t come in and appoint the best in class to maximise your significant outlay, Moshiri stuck with the same losers and we’ve regressed massively, now 14th is the limit of our ambitions

Farhad Moshiri so far has appointted Ronald Koeman, Sam Allardyce (who did well and was rewarded with the sack, Marco Silva (total madness), Carlo Ancelotti (terrible fit and who was awful anyway for us), and Rafael Benítez.

Who doesn’t come in and appoint the best in class to maximise the significant outlay ???? Farhad Moshiri dosent, utterly terrible owner

Your friend Bill made £22m off his shares sales to Moshiri, he’s subsequently part of the second highest paid board in the premier league, all this whilst stripping Everton of any relevance in terms of trophies / European football. Well done bill indeed ! 28 years .

He has done what countless new club owners have done, with similar results. It seems, so far, that he has learned a few tough lessons, and since Lampard and Thelwell seem to be calling the shots, its all a bit more positive.

A "terrible owner" simply does not deliver BMD.
 
Keneothht made 22m from selling his shares to a clown who kept him on got the tune of £2m a year. All this from not investing £1 is some acheivemy whilst removing Nil Satis Nisi Optimum

28 years? Wel 6 are on Farhad for a start.
So he made 22m, what did you want him to do, lose money? He made that because Everton on his watch stayed an ever present in the Premier League and grew in value, he made that because he took a punt on an unfashionable club nobody wanted and saved it for us
What do you think Farhad wanted to do out of Everton, do you not think they were in for for the possible riches?
Also European football was a reality under Bill, now its a delusional pipe dream

But BMD isnt everything, yes its nice, but a new stadium isnt the be all and end all, Sunderland, Boro, Derby, Southampton, Wigan...etc didnt exactly help them, even Arsenal were a much stronger club before them moved.

That aside I do think things are a bit more positive right now then they have been, even if we are worse on the pitch then last season there are reasons to stay positive, one being Farhad staying in the background and letting Thellwell, Kenwright and Lampard work unhindered.

Like I said, he has learned some expensive lessons.

Get your point on new ground = triffic. It guarantees nowt on the pitch.
