The Club officially says we are £40m in debt, we also remortagaged £25m in debt, to be paid for by Season Tickets from now untill the end of time.

That makes £65m.

Considering so far we have done nothing but shave the wage bill, everything is clearly going great isnt it.

But I dont expect you to grasp things.

You know how I can prove it? Not one word in the media about a serious buyer being rebuffed because of outrageous terms or anything like that. You think if I walked up with enough cash to buy the club lock, stock, and barrel and was told no, after Kenwright had gone VERY public, MULTIPLE times about wanting to find a "buyer", that I wouldn't go straight to the media, and have this story ALL OVER the papers. When Liverpool had offers, we knew about every one of them, including specific names. Stories every day. Blackburn same thing. Everton? Crickets.

That's how I know. Common sense.

Can't do that. It's libellous. You can't publicly call someone out in the media after private business discussions.

Most deals take up to a year to process. Things like the Venkys deal etc. you only hear about once it is basically concluded, and all parties are content with the information becoming public.

Kenwright himself has admitted he has spoken to numerous potential buyers, but not one has come out and called Billy a bull****ter because it's simply not done.

Everton are not "for sale", we're up for "investment". The difference between the two is vast.

Then why did we know every potential bidder for Liverpool and Blackburn? Name one scenario where this stuff stays absolutely secret. It just doesn't.

I understand that Bill would prefer "investment" to "sale", but he has clearly been on the record saying he would sell to someone richer than he. So it's out there.

I'm not going to set myself up as the defender of Kenwright 24/7. But I do believe that there aren't a list of people willing to invest or buy Everton right now for a lot of reasons which I've stated.

Also "not one word" from Trevor Birch, Keith Wyness, and Paul Gregg about their departures from the club, and it's fair to guess they weren't happy about certain things. Even lifelong Evertonian Chris Samuelson has shut his mouth since his appeance at one of the last ever AGM's.

This club is cloaked in secrecy, even it's major figure Philip Green won't admit a formal connection to it.

I'm guesing approaches are made and cool at a very quick stage when they realise the astronomical asking price. I reckon Ambani's nephew might have asked that night when he really was just stopping off at Goodison on way to a curry in the city centre.

Ha ha you did it again, your a legend mate - the words your looking for are "i lied about the club being 75mill in debt" - thus being compleately discredited in the debate.

*sigh*

We had the securitization deal in 2002 and borrowed £30M from Bear Stearns and the interest element of that was £38M to be paid back over 25 years...and not a moment sooner. Total debt £68M. You can knock off 8 years worth of paid interest repayment off that now (£1.5M pa) and add it to the level of debt in 2002.

Maybe you can get down to answering your question now young feller me-lad?
