  • Brian Harrison (71) I think you\'ve pretty much nailed it. I posted a good few months ago that TFG would be happy with us finishing 8th FOREVER.rnrnThey are all about \'yields on investment\', \'sweating the assets\', \'leveraging the customer-base\' etc ie the US capitalist business model. I suppose the only good thing is that they will properly lawyer-up if any shit comes our way from the footballing authorities, in any way that might damage their investment.rnrnPS Would anybody pay the prices they charge for food in the ground if you were buying outside? Nine quid for a f***ing burger?!...

    Les Callan in Cut the soundbites: It's time Kinnear and TFG show they mean business at Everton
  • To TFG this is just a business deal they have really no interest in the club or the fans only the profit they can make from our brilliant new stadium. Since they have become owners they haven\'t made a visit to the club to meet the fans because quite frankly they are not interested in what fans think. They have reduced 2 sections which were family enclosures which introduced young fans, now those sections are classed as category 1 seats.

I would imagine they are very pleased with there first season in charge, practically full houses every game from what I see the catering and drink franchises will also be delighted as there seems plenty of fans using their services. rnBut when the FAB group a...

  • Mike G (45) - well, yes, but one is largely immaterial if you don’t remediate the other. Why improve the squad if you don’t also get a manager who will use them in the best way? You just risk alienating both those who are over or under used. Neil (55) - ‘sneering’ was too harsh, but you do seem to brush off some points addressed to you without giving them a proper review to explain why you don’t see them as significant. Not all of my post was ‘aimed’ directly at you, although it was to support my belief that we could do a lot better with a different manager....

  • Paul (58) the season we finished 3rd under Gordon Lee, in 77-78 behind Forest and RS, was very exciting and we played some good stuff. rnrnWe top scored in the First Division, and finished only 2 points behind the Shite. I\'d settle for that at the moment!...
