Guardian article about Philip Green's relationship with EFC

[EFCPaul]

Basically just confirming what some Evertonians have been trying to point out for years whilst clueless clappers scream them down. That Kenwright and his cronies have ran this club very poorly and shadily during his tenure and they need to leave if we're ever to get back to the top. History will judge the lying queen correctly.

Remember when 80% of Goodison clapped Bill Kenwright a couple of years ago and we got laughed at for Kenwright Out banners?

View attachment 32812

Absolute idiots, none of them had any clue what they were even clapping for, they just didn't want to be seen as if they were condoning so-called "kopite behaviour".

I realise that protest marches are not most people's cup of tea and that that BU really turned themselves into an embarrasing laughing stock but the CORRECT message that many supporters wanted to spread about Kenwright and Green asset-stripping this club and leading us down a path to nowhere was just ignored because too many couldn't be arsed to listen to the facts

We've basically lost 20 years. I actually salute Kenwright for blagging his way through this period without major supporter unrest/relegation, definitely more by luck than judgement.

Means we've been treading water for so long though. The way this club has been run since the conception of the Premier League has been completely small time. Started from the word go with that abysmal Park End cow shed they had put up. Such a lack of ambition.

To be honest I was surprised our apparent connection to Green was not highlighted more at the hight of his well deserved witch hunt earlier in the year. Is this the beginning of the coup?

That has always puzzled me as he was a sitting duck. And considering Frank Fields was his major antagonist who wanted him hung out to dry. I would venture it was deliberate on the part on MPs, not expose Green's dealings at Everton. It could have opened some awkward can of worms for football and its' dealings with offshore money. Premier league football is too big to be investigated fully, as it is too big too fail.

VIBRAC, Kenwright, Green, takeover, money do we really know what has gone on? Has anyone really investigated the goings on at our club? Were the last accounts fully looked at? Were the loan deals fully looked at? Moshiri 'coming along' and 'buying shares' when he did, was very convenient for Green, as it took Green and his connection with Everton out of the spotlight. Does Moshiri and Green move in the same circles, and is there any connection between the two or related parties? Moshiri is very well connected with bigwigs and is invited to take a place at the Davos table, every January for a number of years.

Or maybe everything is honky dory at Everton and there is nothing to see.

I can't be the only who is extremely suspicious of an INTEREST FREE loan??? Excuse my financial ignorance but what possible benefit could that provide the lender?

What's gone on in 5 or less bullet points please?

Can't believe someone has finally written something based on WatchedDivvy's Twitter nonsense, especially The Guardian.

Yes, Very. I still have reservations about Moshiri. If any or all of the above is true, why would Kenwright sell to somebody who would possibly rock the boat and upset the gravy train. (apologies for mixed metaphors!) Surely you would sell to a like minded soul.

Quite happy to be proved wrong when I'm watching Everton at the New Goodison on Bramley Dock and we have massively splashed the cash in future transfer windows.

Ok, I will try.

Lets say you had very little cash, but needed a new house. But you have some credit card debt, so a bank is unlikely to give you a mortgage.

So your Dad pays off the credit card, interest free, helps you with a deposit, and you then get the mortgage and the house. But when you sell the house, he owns half of it, and cos its gone up in value, he makes a profit.

Sort of, and add a few 000 to it.

Interest free loans are normally the best type of steroids that a football club can use imo, that's when they are used as a form of investment that allows the club to grow and enhance their performance. This has yet to happen at Everton however, as the loan has been used to transfer a debt that normally would have been paid off during the process of a takeover, but is instead still owed to Moshiri.

So its all nonsense then?

It's from a fella who lives in a bedsit with an Owl and looks to make any link between Everton and the outside world possible.

He's been flogging this to every paper for about 12 months via Twitter. Think Phil McNulty shut him down a few months back.

His Owl squawks more sense.

The ability to grow the value of his asset. It's a gamble but clearly he sees a greater r.o.i on his stake in the football club than in the interest on the loan.

Not at all, it wouldn't get published if it was but some of it is very, for a lack of a better word or phrase, loose in terms of research.

He acts like he's Edward Snowden because he spends his time on Google and the Companies House website.
