The Friedkin Group (They're selling up)

[Raptor]

Getting lots of Everton love in this thread...

[Trowel]

They had to turn new comments off on this old post they'd made on Armstrong when he returned

[Indiantoffee75]

Can't trust this lot. There integrity will be brought into question.

What's next is anyones guess.

[Lazarou II]

If it wasn't before it's clear were we stand with these lot.

I’ve always hated Toyota

By the way, I have zero doubt that the first time Dan Friedkin heard Harrison Armstrong's name, never mind that this deal was happening, was when the groups PR rep and social media manager flew into his virtual office asking what was going on at Everton.

[Shogun]

I can't believe we've effectively valued Ndiaye at £25m more than Richarlison.

All this time and their extensive network has identified Richarlison, Grealish and Tete as the players to bring in.

Heads need to roll. Kinnear and this whole committee have to go.

[Trowel]

Just revisiting my notes from Kinnear's interviews the other day:

Squad is in a strong place and upgraded significantly

We're not in a bad position on right-back options

Ndiaye is part of the vision to keep our best players

Owners are keen to back us in the transfer window

Collaborative effort for transfers between Moyes and recruitment team

I think we need to know wtf is going on financially. Why is Joyce saying we need to sell? Why is the ceo saying financial troubles are behind us? Why is the manager saying we haven’t got the funds?

What is going on and why?

Kinnear will know, he speaks to the Friedkins every day

[Free Agent]

Yeah, it’s all really odd. All this journo’s coming out with these comments this late in the window. Seems there’s absolute chaos in the boardroom at present.

Thought it was quite well documented that with the new SCR rules we had a spending cap of around 70Mish?

Can't remember the exact figure,then it was only sales before we could buy after that.

[Gash]

I don't think we've made a significant sale since Onana, that doesn't help balance to books. Our player trading has been appauling even though people try to moan that we shouldn't be selling players for a decent profit. It's not sustainable to work like we have over the last several years.

[NomadskiEFC]

Selling Ndiaye for £60m and buying Richy for £35 is peak incompetence. Moshiri level head scratching dumb fuckery.

Why are we seemingly the only club willing to essentially give our players away? Meanwhile City will sell some academy player whose played 19 games for £70m with sell on clauses.

This lot are absolute imbeciles if this deal goes through as it is.

[NickNack]

It’s not easy to determine the facts from journalists reacting to rumours or making shit up. Think it’s time to go into hibernation until Tuesday night / Wednesday morning then see what’s what.

That said, made up if the fan’s reaction had anything to do with re-thinking about Armstrong.
