Well dms I’m reading investment or outright sale of Everton, as of 2 hrs ago.

What a mess we are. Not the well run club I started supporting in the 60s. How times change.

Same as that, Nick. Early 60s, what a shambles we are now, mate.

Doesn't surprise me, to be honest. They have to be thanked for putting the club in a much improved financial position, but the sale of five players and the attempted sale of Armstrong without much outlay on incoming players suggests that they want to be in a strong cash flow situation, allowing the new owners to be able to recruit in January.
If this happens, I don't see either Moyes or that incompetent from Leeds surviving past the next transfer window.
We can only hope that this strategy does not back-fire with us dropping down the table.

If it is to be a total buyout, then I hope they get rid of the whole management and coaching staff, and bring in a completely new team fully competent in the EPL and European football. It's the only way to go forward in my opinion.

It's a very sad situation, Nick. Several weeks ago we were told that we needed 5-6 players more than last season and would be in a much stronger position. Now, if anything, we do not have a larger squad than last season with no back-up at striker or at both full-back positions.
Also, we are looking for new investment, maybe a full sale of the club.
Let's hope and pray that we have no serious injuries or red cards and whatever happens with the ownership does not affect the performance on the pitch.

Sadly, this is something clubs in turmoil suffer, Mike. Players reluctant to stay or sign as they are not sure where the club will be at the end of a season. Buckle up, cos we're in for a rough ride, I think. The word rodeo comes to mind.
