Was in the spellow after the game when joe anderton the councellor came in with his wife and friend the lads got talking to him and he told us he was the person who got the indian group interested in buying efc he told us that kenwright wants £120 million for the club plus £67 million the debt to be paid off not the £40 mill as reported we asked him if anybody else was interested. He told us a chinese consortium is interested and are coming over whether kenwright will drop his price only god knows if he dosen,t we are right in the s**t as the bank will demand at least two players be sold to reduce the debt once again no BS ED025 Gods honest mossley hill al

If this is true then Blue Bill had better find another club to support! He won't be welcomed in the boys pen! How dare he ask £187m for a club he acquired for £30m with a £15m overdraft! That's a net profit of £150m for an asset stripped club, who once owned prime real estate in Bellfield and was sold to appease the bank and exchanged for a leased training ground that absorbs 85p in every £1 the club makes in revenue!!

A huge, huge blow to all blues! This man and his cronies are malignant mass in the heart and soul of our club!!
Gordon Lee's Ghost

85p of every £1? Not gaming that for a second. Where on earth did you get that from? That would mean our wage bill would have to be less than 10% of our revenue! Players would be on 150 quid a week!

85p in every £1 is a bona fide quotation from our beloved Board and CEO. Have it or not, that's what they are telling us in official statements!

Where our money goes

Speculation is also once again fuelling debate in certain quarters about where our money goes.

To get this straight again, almost 85p in every £1 we earn is spent at the training ground and academy paying the players, the coaches, the scouts, the conditioners, the medics, the support teams, team travel and accommodation along with rent and other overheads. And we're proud of the facility - we're currently hosting several major European leagues and clubs at a conference at Finch Farm, selected as a benchmark training facility by the Premier League, and we're confident that the investment pays off - it was a key factor in why young players like George Green continue to choose Everton. It's an investment that also positions us to take advantage of the new Premier League plans for Academies, putting us ‘ahead of the game'. And, of course, from everyone at the Club, not least the Academy team, congratulations to Jack Rodwell on his England call-up.

In that case, it seems we are getting a he'll of alot more than a mere training ground for our 85%. In fact, that statement describes most of a football club's overheads anyway.

Looks like Mr Ghost is twisting things to suit his own agenda. Ever considered entering politics, or working for FIFA?

Spot on ....

Its on FB that Jack Rodwell has handed in a transfer request and Chelski have responded with a bid!
True or not I wouldn't know. There is nothing on the main sports channels

Hmm i think this has been on the cards, I can see Man City offering us £20 million plus Onouha or Chelsea offering £20 million plus Kalou.

Personally I would take either offer,

The Shadow

Would prefer 25 million and Kalou from Chelsea though :)

Is there anyone else out there seeing Everton in serious trouble. Have you seen some of our fixtures coming up. If we are not in the bottom four by end of February i will be amazed. On yesterday's performance i am worried big time - i just don't see where the creativity and goals are coming from. Missing Osman as he is the only one who can do this. Agree that Drenthe is a liability - may as well run with a blind fold on -loses it everytime!

We know mate, we all know we're in deep trouble unless our players can pull out the stops and play like we used to. If we get a striker in the next week it will be a sign of hope but all we can do is get behind the team and hope we pull through.
Khaos

Getting right behind the team is important. It makes a serious difference at home.

The World's greatest ever footballer was born on this day, William Ralph Dean. 1907 - 1980

Happy Birthday "Dixie". How we could do with a young dean in the side now.
Paul EFC

I f we had dixie, moyes would have him out wide....

Couldnt agree more mate- Happy Birthday Dixie

Still showing more movement than Saha!

22 Jan 2012 17:25:16
i dont understand why we dont get yannick djalo linked with him a couple of years ago and we need a striker and he is free.. also heard a striker will be on the might be ederzito lopes and enquiring about onouha whats goin on with lopes

~~toffstertaz~~.

Am i missing somat here, all u guys so wanting Onohua at the club. He's a really excellent player, play anywhere along the back 4 ? Why is he only going for 3-4 mil, sounds like the ideal player for all teams, and why havent Sunderland made an offer for him? Thought he was there on loan, didnt he make much of an impression or what??

He is on the cheap because he is basically deadwood for City, and City need to start selling some of the deadwood due to the FFP being introduced very soon. And other teams have asked City about his availablity, most notably QPR, but he has said his preference is to stay in the Nort West where his family, most notably his ill mother is.

Quaresma? Was'nt he the guy chelsea was gonna pay 30 million for 3 year ago?how are we gonna get him! bob...

Yeah but was never gonna pay £30million or near it lol.

Yes it was from a side in portugal.

This is the same Ricardo Quaresma that got voted the worst player in Liga Portuguesa a few years back.

22 Jan 2012 16:28:33
Onohua will sign for Everton... 1 million upfront and a further 1 million in installments.
Also a striker on loan will be at everton before the window closes.
@insideinfo
Got this from Twitter.... Don't know how reliable it is but the same source revealed aston villa would get keane on loan so maybe ??

Keane on loan was a bit of an obvious one to reveal so i'm not going to hold my breath. :(

Twitter.com/Insideinfo doesnt seem to work mate. try again mate

22 Jan 2012 13:28:18
everton set to bid for gary hooper

False it would take roughly 8million up to get him something we don't have...

We need Im he we would be good for us

22 Jan 2012 12:39:39
heard some rumours that we are going to bid for bobby zamora, I dont know about anyone else but i'd take him in a heart beat!

To old, injury prone, inconsistent were already have Saha for that

Would rather play myself..

22 Jan 2012 12:11:56
Onuoha set to snub QPR for Everton...

Why would he do that? {Ed001's Note - perhaps you should read up about the lad, he doesn't want to move that far from his family, he would like to stay in the North West. His mother was the lady with cancer who was the subject of the highly offensive email sent by Gary Cook, which resulted in his sacking. Understandably he would like to be near her.}

We can't afford the fee, we can't afford his wages. We can't afford papers and pen for the contract.

Sounds like a top class lad, a lad with high morals, would definetly welcome someone of his character at the club. Not to mention, he could solce our defensive issues as he does provide cover across the back 4 and is still relatively young.

Would like to see this transfer happen, but the fee will be the major problem. {Ed001's Note - money is certainly not the issue with him, the only issue is if he is able to concentrate properly on his game. But, at his best, he is an excellent player.}

Don't be silly he won't cost more than £3 million, ed you're absolutely right, the fee isn't an issue.

Dont be silly? When was the last time we had 3mil to spend on one player? Must have been back when Lescott was sold. Dont see how that is being silly. And 3mil would be an issue for Everton, or have you been completely oblivious to our financhial state?

22 Jan 2012 10:22:10
Everton have enquired about celtic striker gary hooper. He is looking for a move to EPL and must be in our price range coming from the SPL.

They are wanting 6mill I think

6mil? try the quoted "35mil" from neil lennon

Actually Southampton bid about that and the deluded person that is niel lennon came out and said 35 mil is his price tag.

I don't think he has got the pace for the English Prem. I know he can score goals in the SPL but i have doubts. COYB.

22 Jan 2012 02:31:07
the echo never lies and says weve been linked with kenwyne jones an onouha so we must have some transfer funds right?

22 Jan 2012 00:13:29
Bilyaledinov is to depart the club this week. This is not some punt or maybe or pub discussion. The fee and club is agreed with money from transfer being used for transfer funds.

Having been at the game again it is my opinion that the crowd and it's frustration hinder our play and home form. I accept that fans have a view and the argument that the play may not be good enough of late is valid. However, if so called supporters continue to verbally abuse each and every bad pass or decision then we as a club will suffer more than we already are.

It's time to get behind the side that is clearly struggling for confidence and support, and ensure that Goodison is a fortress that other teams don't enjoy visiting. At the moment the fans silence themselves for the opposition and hurl abuse at their own!

Well its my viw ..I pay over £1000 a season for my ticket and wont do it again !....Trasing standards may take issue with -entertainment

What part of the ground do you sit in? It certainly doesn't cost a grand a season for my seat!

Spoke to Bily after the game yesterday and he said there is two offers for him, I have no idea how much is involved or who from. Sad really as I really wanted him to come good. Just hope Moyes gets the money and it doesn't just vanish like the other 16 million we brought in in August
KP

Well don't pay it and it's one less fan hurling abuse! I pay the same and im as frustrated as the next fan... But, I'll support them as others take their frustration out on the so called team they support.... The atmosphere at the ground is horrendous. The quicker fans realise they are contributing to the demise the quicker we can get premiership survival. Otherwise, stand on the trap door and flirt with it.

Bloody hell where are you sitting, on the subs bench?

You pay your money to be entertained and thats not happening. If you pay for a meal and its s**t you would complain. So you pay your money and you are right to air you views. Sick and tired of people defending the indefendable.

The difference is you don't claim to Love and Support your meal, do you? The comment above is correct, negativity from the stands finds its way onto the pitch and can influence the team!! So stop ur whinging!!

I'm not defending poor play and it is certainly a two way street, but the crowd have a role and that's to support on the whole. At the moment it's the worst support I can recall.

If you eat in a poor restaurant then you wouldn't go back! So if you do go back then support the team instead of spreading an infectious cancer that IS crippling us! (regardless of performances, manager or BK)

So what you are all saying is you only sing when your winning, and if the club dont perform, as a good loyal fan that you are, you will desert them and leave the stands empty, f*ck off then and support tranmere.....byn

Bily gone as stated.... Don't mention it Ed! {Ed025's Note - i wont..lol
