thanks for the podcast as always, fellas. i'll be glad when the moshiri era comes to an end, no doubt about that. with hindsight, and considering the negotiating games tfg played when acquiring roma, it was probably obvious that friedkin would come back in to complete the deal. i agree with what gav says about textor coming across as more of a "football man" and that's why i'm slightly disappointed were getting tfg over textor. however, having said that, textor was an absolute barmpot wasn't he? he had passion, he was talking about bringing in the world's best players, he was telling us how wonderful goodison was, and how prestigious it would be to own everton. he was even talking about bringing the fans into the ownership fold by making shares available to them. and maybe to some degree i was seduced by that all that. tfg seem like a much cooler proposition, and maybe that's what's required to get us back on track. time will tell.
Cheers lads also we need timestamps for when the takeover talk ends, I just can’t do it anymore despite it being positive news. I don’t even want to hear takeover talk from Friedkin until he’s actually our owner.
He’s still got manager years left I don’t think he’d want to be behind the scenes yet, and why would you want him in DOF if he has ZERO experience doing that
Correct.. I just think he didn’t know about running a club, sadly he trusted kenwright and his cronies with his money… the worst ever decision was getting Benitez, IMO, but let’s hope we can move forward quickly now
Walsh was a scout at Leicester City, he had no idea how to be a director of football. Next Director of Football was constantly over ruled because Moshiri wanted to bring his own choice of players in. Moshiri barely spent any of his own money. He used the sales of players and the money from premier league to buy players, as for the stadium he put £50 million in. Thelwell has NOT done a good job as director of football, most of his signings have been shocking. He should have been sacked on the spot for wasting 30+ million on Beto, who clearly is not a premier league player. He is more a wrestling lunatic. Dyche should be removed as soon as possible, before we end up in a position where we are completely rooted at the foot of the table and unable to get out of a relegation fight, coz it won't be a fight if he remains in charge. His substitutions have been utterly baffling and have cost us matches. He talks good statistics, but strangely tactically clueless. He has to go as soon as possible along with Thelwell. Sorensen the manager of the women's team is a complete joke too who also should be sent packing.
The Everton Football Club Limited, incorporated on 14 June 1892 are tuning in their graves re the shahanadigs of billionaires wanted to claim ownership of our beoved club. The new stadium however is the makings of a new period of financial stability in counter to the hellish past 5 years we have all suffered.

Put David Moyes in as director of football and get a new manager in.

Something to look forward at last and finally off the mark
Moshiri has delivered us a bright new state of the art home - like him or not
Correct.. I just think he didn’t know about running a club, sadly he trusted kenwright and his cronies with his money… the worst ever decision was getting Benitez, IMO, but let’s hope we can move forward quickly now
Another big factor is the poor substitutions from Dyche

Pickford will be back to his very best but the defence needs to step up
Baffles me being 60 because I can't remember Everton fans do anything other than moan and complain about everything.
