and theres always a chance of a newspaper interview getting twisted and the actual article not sounding how he intended. a LIVE interview, can not be twisted in any way whatsoever.

I can only assume you haven't read this thread

Wizard, for the magician that you are, you surely know that this is not true. It was Jim's alter ego

Could it be we're using Sky to raise our profile ?

 

[jinkyali]

The whole Jim White being so well connected thing is a mystery to me. He must be either a million miles away from the cretinous idiot I listen to on TS in real life, or the accepted face of Sky to the club owners. Like you want our Billions, then lob White a bone.

Could well be White expects a role to come up at Everton in the near future.

Do you kno something or just speculating

Speculating.

Moshiri is good for White and vica versa.

A friend of mine works as a statistician at Sky Sports. He told me that Jim White is exactly the same in the canteen as he is on TV.

That's interesting you should say that Carlito and I thank you very much for that, but could EVERTON be about to shake up this speculation window?

If there was money to be made from expertise in being blagged by Bill Kenwright, I would be a far, far richer man than Farhad Moshiri.

But you're not. Again ignorance and naivety win.

 

[tommye]

This is going really well.

Thanks Jim

Kinell!!...reading this thread is like the the odd occasion I do the school run!
...loads of drama Queens gassing, winging & moaning about irrelevant crap!
...The Bloke has invested a shed load of money into this club over the the last 8-9 months & it sounds like he's hell bent in getting us back up there where be belong!
...ironically in years to come the bedwetting drama Queens will be telling their families stories about how it all happened When Farhad Changed Decades of failure under Bullshine Bill!
FFS...Give the Bloke a bit of time to get it right!...we've waited ages, a few more year's to see actual progress can't be that hard!
*Retreats to lurking again...due to impatient misery arses!

I won?

I listened to the interview only this morning.

I like to look for the human angle - to me Moshiri came across as warm and genuine and as an Everton "fan". I liked that, he sounded like one of us on that level. With Kenwright, I always feel that he rehearses every soundbite first, hardly surprising either with the professional world he inhabits.

There is a tendency to stereotype billionaires as incessantly and universally ruthless and incapable of making wrong decisions - both are incorrect. Interestingly he did mention the word ruthless in connection with Koeman. We do need ruthlessness for the team and for the business. Other than that, being a nice guy helps in most life and business situations.

On the evidence of all I have heard thus far, I would much rather have a pint with Moshiri than Koeman. That's not at all a criticism of the latter it just highlights men with two seemingly very different personalities.

It was great to hear him talk about the new stadium and clearing the debts. I was less impressed by his take on our transfer business, making out we were better off in hindsight not signing Perez and Gabbiadini didn't sound very reassuring.

I was listening to Eric Clapton last night, including his track "Running on Faith". That's where we are at present. Moshiri has given some tasters of his ambition and intention but he will be judged by his delivery on the new stadium and sufficient investment in the squad.

I say give the man a chance, he needn't have bothered straying into this at all and to me we are better off already, even though much of the changes are at this stage cosmetic secondary to the football (but no less important in the long-term). It's better than what went before. Even if in a few years this all ends in frustration and disappointment, I would actually prefer false hope to no hope at all. Bill Kenwright is a specialist in no hope at all.

Welcome to our club, Farhad Moshiri.

Don't imagine Koeman to be the best pub company myself, certainly would give youa funny look if you asked for a packet of crisps when it was his round.

 

[Billy Dean]

For what specific reasons though mate?

I was overreacting TBH. It was just the imprint of Bill on that interview made me a bit worried. He seems to be very highly involved still. I was hoping he'd be phased out with the new broom but it doesn't seem to be happening which makes me a bit suspicious.

Bills biggest problem is that he is skint, but i don't see a issue with bills involvement with the club. Granted he should not be the decision maker and I don't think he is anymore. I'd rather have an Evertonian involved with the club then some one who does not understand this club and what it stands for.

Anyways Elstone is the guy that worries me the most not bill as the Mosh said commercial revenue is pity full conpared with our peers and El bob still thinks he got it right.
