Friedkin Group to plug BMD funding gaps

Well in, Big Dan Friedkin! He's not even officially in the game yet, but he's willing to put in one very tough (and expensive!) tackle without pulling back.

His commitment to the financial stability of both club and stadium is good for him too -- it makes his investment stronger -- but for us supporters, it means fewer knotty stomachs and sleepless nights.

Now it's up to the boys in blue. Stay up. Starting next season as a Premier League club in that magnificent new stadium opens up a whole new world for all of us.

Let's hope they can plug the roof.

Yes Mike. One step closer.

Now let's's get this ownership takeover signed and sealed.

Things are looking up for once. But in the back of my mind, there is always that feeling of dread, expecting some kind of disaster! This is Everton after all.

The quickest turnaround in value for The Friedkin Group is completion of the stadium.

All sounds extremely promising, blue skies ahead.

Duncan...I don't know if you remember " The Fast Show". There was an old geezer in one of the sketches played by Paul Whitehouse. Always ended with him saying " ooohhh bugger "!
So I know fully what you mean

Duncan, my thoughts exactly, it's always there, and when I read the headline I thought I saw " pull the plug" Agghhhh.. :)
Alan, yes we are the Unlucky Alf when it comes to club management, and results.

I see The Daily Fail are at it again, saying that Man Utd will be back in the hunt for Branthwaite next summer, whilst, even funnier, saying the RS will join Man Utd in trying to buy JB, possibly as early as this coming January transfer window. However, Dan Friedkin will be “Splashing the Cash” in January, with a striker a top priority, and is reportedly saying that no top players will be sold!

Mike, Textor was saying the same stuff!
Fingers crossed we don’t do an “Everton that”

Rob, like all of us I'd like to see JD here for many years to come. Whilst I hate the arrogance of the popular press and clubs like Man U..." yeah we'll take hime off your hands" type of thing I do feel that in time he will leave us. In fact I'm certain of it.
What I'm hoping for is, at long last, we'll have leadership that will say " he is our player, so show us the money ". By that I mean mega bucks not selling our assets for magic effing beans like we've done in the past. For God's sake a lad only has to.play once for that lot across the park and he's in the £20 million bracket.
I'm looking forward to a real hard nosed business man standing up to these Sky Six entitled gobshites

JB sorry

It would take Radcliffe to get full control of United.Having the Glaziers there keeps the rot going.Same old United trying to get players on the cheap and offload their useless ones.Big Club, Big arrogance, no substance.

Everton are hopefully leaving the Big Club no substance behind.Fortunately arrogance wasn't a issue.Arrogance is by far worse.

Every step taken in stabilising the very fractured and somewhat non existent financial foundation of our club has got to be viewed on the merits of its promise of a future for Everton.All donations so far,albeit in the form of loans,have kept us afloat but have increased our vulnerability and insecurity of possible survival.
The emergence of TFG has a different feel to it,with its apparent direct approach to dealing with the loanees strangle holds on our ability to grow and prosper, in a constructive and positive manner,suffice to give me,a football fan,not a business minded man,a glimmer of hope that “ The times,they are a changing “ and we are not just “Blowing in the wind “.
Having just read on BBC Sport Gossip that the RS are adding themselves to the list of suitors for our Jarrod,and that Dyche will have funds to strengthen the squad and that no top players will be sold ( do one RS),gives me,at present,the belief that the business aspect of our club is destined for a brighter future.TFG will be ruthless in dealing with “ the business “ make no bones about it,and not all decisions will be welcomed,but at this moment in time I feel that TFG’s business will be Everton Football Club,and everything that is done in it’s name will be for the benefit and future health and survival of both club and owner.
Hope that I am proven right—— Time,as always,will tell. “We’re Forever,Everton”
