How satisfied so far are you with the running of Everton by the Friedkin group ?

Wonderful, couldn't be pleased !

They are not exactly visible and they are not creating the impression that we are their top priority but at worst they have put us on a much stronger financial footing. In summary boringly mid-table so far like us!
 
I've come to believe they don't intend to be here long-term. They've saw us as a distressed asset that they can wash the face of and then flip for a big profit in a few years. Getting hold of a PL club, especially one with a stadium as great as ours, is like winning the lottery for these sorts of tycoons.

They are doing the bare minimum to keep us stable and increase the potential re-sale value. Disappointing even if it's still a damn sight better than the utter chaos of Moshiri and embarrassing tenure of Kenwright. Still, we remain one of the most pointless clubs in football tragically.
 
It should be acknowledged that they've financially paid a few bills and improved the sponsorship and partners. They're (slowly) restructuring with appointments.

But that aside they as an organisation are very aloof and recent antics with Moyes and the CEO reinforces there is a very soft very blasé attitude about us as a club. Just existing as a club. Zero ambition. Clearly underscored by the attitude in the last 2 months of the season. The attitude of Moyes. CEO happily dissatisfied.

By doing nothing for another 12 months / another season TFG will just confirm they're not serious about us, just making the club in a good state to flip.
 
They've done an awful lot of heavy lifting and investing to rescue the club/squad, which seems pretty forgotten about.

In terms of governance, its only really the next year or so wel be able to judge with a full structure in place.

They've earned my patience.

People are down over the Burnley thing, but that's absolutely nothing to do with them.
 
Not jumping yet, think the Summer and next season will paint the picture.

I think the lack of Interaction though probably effects peoples opinions.

Window - Moyes - Kinnear - 2yr plan, If we have another failure, will they react
Yeahp, next season is key. If we have another season like last, we'll then know how ambitious they are with the club, and wether they take any action or not. IE manager change or other senior figure changes.
 
The poll findings right now: the mode seems to be a view that this lot need to act and act fast to convince fans they're capable of shifting the dial for Everton.

That's the way I voted too.

The £110M spending last summer after the years and years of under-investment aside we've seen nothing but poor appointments, piss taking decisions on ticket and food and drink, and a continued fostering of the belief that we're not a priority for them.

Speed up and deepen your efforts at rebuilding this club or GTF.

They put some cash into the squad, but most of all they just sorted out better debt interest repayments.

It's not enough.

18 months and we need to see an acceleration of their intent.

A big statement in the transfer window this summer and holding Moyes' feet to the fire over results early next season or he's out.

That'd settle a lot of people down if they did that.

I dont want to hear any Kenwright era BS excuses from them or their fellow travellers in the fanbase. As if that's impressing anyone.

They need to GTF on with dramatically reconfiguring this club or they're a waste of time. We're getting left behind by no mark clubs. Urgency must be the order of the day.

Way too forgiving.

Of course they have improved the finances. That's in their own interests as they'll want to flip at a profit.

The team? Not so much. And that's where they expose themselves.
