“Not the job that was pitched to me"

Paul The Esk
The timing of such cannot wait. Yes, we have assured Premier League survival — how fantastic that is — but bigger battles are still to be fought and won

In the Cold Light of Day — Everton’s Position, the Absence of Leadership & Aligned Interests

Paul The Esk
Everton's position is desperate but still recoverable. It is a really tough ask but the only survival chance going forwards requires new management, new players (in every sense) on and off the pitch

Everton FC Annual Report and Accounts 2022-23 — Part II

Paul The Esk
It almost doesn’t require saying but the financial condition of Everton Football Club is frankly absurd, and testament to the atrocious management of the club by Farhad Moshiri.

Everton FC Annual Report and Accounts 2022-23 — Part I

Moshiri is about to lose control of Everton — the question is to whom?

Paul The Esk

30/03/2024

The reality of the ‘conditional minded to approve’ requirements

Paul The Esk
Far from being a conditional approval, these are terms  that, in my opinion are impossible to meet.
24/03/2024

Bloomberg report of conditional approval for 777 Partners crystallises minds

Accountability and the Role of Both Moshiri and We, the Fans — Everton’s Last Defence

Everton, the Senior Club in the City, and the Importance of Ownership

Paul The Esk
We deserve much more than Farhad Moshiri has delivered. We deserve, the club and city requires, much more than Moshiri promises in terms of his potential new owners in 777 Partners.

Everton’s Debt Position and Ownership Alternatives

Paul The Esk
Whatever the solution is going forwards, Moshiri has caused huge pain to himself, the club, the fans (most importantly), creditors, sponsors and their backers. The longer we wait for a solution or resolution, the worse our situation becomes.
10/02/2024

In the Bleak Mid-Winter...

Paul The Esk
What are the options ahead of us? Who should take the pain of our past management?
