The Everton Board Thread (Inc. Bill Kenwright / Blue Union)

[del78]

The only way that £150 million makes sense is if they are selling the club on the basis that whoever buys it has to commit to either spending £80 million or so on the team, or building a new ground. (edit) Which Elstone did sort of imply in his blog post about the sale process.

Just noticed this post in all the madness. +1.

Makes sense.

Didn't re-mortgage his house at least once and doesn't take a wage from the club.
A bit of balance.
He is not the anti-Christ.
I believe though he is a puppet in this. His hands are tied.

I would sell my first born to be Everton Chairman for 10 Years and THEN make a 21m profit.

All this "doesnt take a wage" bs is tiresome, he might not take actual money, but he enjoys the MANY perks of being in charge of a Premier League Football team, of which their are many.

Meanwhile Phil Neville is applauding Portsmouth on appointing an English coach

Hey, that's funny, Neville is English and coming up to the end of his playing career.

People arguing because he wants a profit? So what?

I love Everton, but to be honest, if i won the euromillions and got £200 million, i wouldnt buy Everton or invest in them, why should i? Yeah i love them, but at the end of the day its my money and i want it.

Kenwright should be applauded for even buying the club in the first place, if he wants to make a profit then fine, a higher asking price is good anyway, because if it was low, dont you think he would have hundreds of offers, just looking to buy low and sell high like any other good investor? Any investor in the property market? You want someone who buys the club at its value, and wants to take it on to better things

Oh and you also have to take into account how money has changed over the years...eg: If i invested £10 and 10 years later i made £30, well, ive basically lost money there...

 

[Dom1878]

He has come out in the past and said he wants out. He is not smart enough to pull all this off. The only reason he got control day one was because of his backers and they want to get paid. His hands are tied.

Pipe down - the mere fact that a 'ballpark figure' is in the public domain suggests to me we're nearer an end to this nonsense than ever before.
