The Everton Board Thread 2014/15

[Eggs]

Next year Man Utd will be getting 75 million a year compared to our 3 ! The gap is getting far bigger and it seriously worries me.

....and we beat them 3-0.

Lord Granchester and the Moore's family : estimated wealth according to the Sunday Times rich list is 1·2 billion smackeroonies. Can we have some shrapnel please.

Granchester has not had a thing to do with Everton in a very long time.

A brilliant article. Also uncomfortable because EFC is losing out to its neighbour and to lots of other clubs in so many respects.

And the blame must be laid at Billly Liar's door. It is not just the lack of trophies and that is important but also the lack of investment in Goodison and its laughable capacity of 39,500 but more importantly the lack of ambition and the listless acceptance of mediocrity.

What does/did Kenright want to do with EFC? A true Blue would have accepted that his own financial limitations were holding back the club he supposedly loved and would have found a decent owner by now.

What is the point of owning a Rolls-Royce if you cannot afford the insurance or the petrol?

1) The women love it.
2) It looks beautiful on your driveway.
3) You will then have a excuse to make your own vroom vroom noises.

Seriously i would say build the stadium first to try and attract new investors/sponsors.

State they’re in
Roberto Martínez defied the dispiriting predictability that wage spending matches achievement by steering his ninth-highest-paid squad to fifth, two places above Manchester United, for whom David Moyes had left Goodison Park.
Everton have for years pushed spending on player signings and wages to the limits of their bank’s tolerance, but used the new TV cash for housekeeping which bordered on the stingy. Turnover increased £35m yet wages increased just £6m. The club would have just broken even but for £28m profit on the sale of players, principally Marouane Fellaini, to Moyes.

They've responded to fans concerns and one of them is now working 24/7 to pinpoint what other operating costs are made up of

Did FIFA bring in a new rule this year that all agents acting in player transfer deals had to be declared and published with each deal.
