The Friedkin Group (They're selling up)

[MayorFarnham]

I'm not expecting anything particularly spectacular. They'll probably be American, with mid-range wealth by PL standards, but won't be putting much of it at risk.
All the game changing takeovers have come out of nowhere. When a club is put up for sale publicly it tends to turn into a buyers market.

[superpull]

Have leveraged buy-outs been ruled illegal yet? I really don't want an American buying us with our own money

[TheRam]

Moshiri there again today.

Must love the blues.

Or something else?

[Audrey Horne]

If that cunt is back I'm done.

Also still makes me sick that he is welcomed with open arms

We like are heroes crap. Moshiri, kenwright obviously not really meant to say it but Duncan ferguson, sharp who was happy to run cover for moshiri and kenwright for a symbolic place on the board. Tim cahill who did the same

Weve no standards. Not in terms of our heroes. Not in terms of our expectations

[toffee_scot]

Yeah if Moshiri returns, I don’t think I could watch him attempting to destroy Everton again.

My one huge concern about us having such dispassionate and disinterested current owners is that they would be willing to sell to anyone who gave them good money without any care whatsoever if they would be the right fit for Everton.

[TheRam]

Think I’d rather crash and burn than fade out like we are currently.

[MayorFarnham]

Plenty of clubs go to former players. We, more than most, go to former managers. If there was any club to bring back a former owner it could only be us.

The thing about Moshiri is that he had two main failings:

1) Hiring and listening to incompetent people - outside of Ancelotti his managerial hires were terrible and he was clearly hugely influenced by agents.
2) Russian sanctions drying up his money - losing key sponsorship deals fucked our PSR and losing financing really jeopardized the stadium and led us to cowboys like 777 on obscene rates.

If he could hire some competent sporting people around him (he won't, they're boring) then he'd be an ideal owner as he seemed ambitious and keen to throw money at us.

Ultimately in the modern era of football it's only clubs with owners willing to pour money into them that can actually challenge, even run perfectly we couldn't do it off our own backs.

He was everyones sucker wasnt he.

Or alternatively he could just be protecting his interest in terms of what he’s still/maybe owed financially….
There’s nothing like a good conspiracy theory on here to set the hares running…

Haven't watched the vid, but they're both Liverpool fans btw.

[Lazarou II]

I thought Winter was always okay with us?

[MayorFarnham]

I saw that earlier. Nothing surprising and nothing positive. A long drawn out process is on the cards I think.
