Lottery Winner

[Nymzee]

Just a curious little question I thought I'd pose to the forum: if you won £100m in the lottery tomorrow, would you donate money to Everton? And if yes, which area (debt clearance, transfer kitty etc.) would you ask for it to go.

i'd buy Liverpool and throw them in the bin

 

[Moomin]

I'd donate the same amount the likes of Kenwright have invested in the club over the last 16 years, sweet FA.

 

[Groucho]

I'd buy shares instead.

A chunk of £100m wouldn't go far when you take in to account player fee, player wages, signing on fee.

 

[GwladysBlue]

Donate money to help Kenwright stay in charge? No thanks.

This is basically the board's plan for new investment/stadium.

 

[Woolly Blue]

Only if I became the majority shareholder, at which point I'd reduce the debt by 20 million, see what I could do with 50 million in redeveloping Goodison, invest a few million in marketing activities and give Martinez 25 million plus to spend.

I'd hire a hitman to render Tim Howards arms useless.


*shizz.... somebody got there before me

They already are bud

Have thought about this before - I'd be tempted to try and help the club out by putting £50m or so towards a new stadium.

The thing that bothers me about doing that though is that it would increase the value of the club and Kenwright and co would make more money from selling it because of me.

I'd want to do something but I'd need to work out a way to ensure that Green, Kenwright, etc didn't profit from it

I'd put a fiver to it and pay my debts....

 

[Timak]

Nah.

I could do a hell of a lot more good with £100m than make some footballers even richer.

If I did anything it would probably be put in some decent all weather football pitches all over the city and make them free to use (with Everton branding) and maybe supply some decent youth coaches.

However this is something it annoys me neither club in the city has done. For a weeks worth of their wage bill each they could build 3G pitches aplenty all over the city and give something back to the community.

 

[Nymzee]

Yeh we are pretty shocking for giving Liverpool children the platform to perform. I heard Iceland spent a ton of money creating all weather and indoor pitches so they could play all year round. Surely we can do it in one city.

 

[Dithering Dougie]

I'd give money to EITC and maybe buy the green away shirt.

 

[Donald Twain]

Gave them enough cash over the years so a big fat no!
