Ye Ken Wright From Wrong?

According to one of those millionaire city blokes facing a parliamentary committee today ?asset stripping only reduces the value of something? and in that regard ?it would be foolish to do such a thing if you wanted a business to grow?. Given that since Bill Kenwright — or more especially Mr. Wyness — have been at the helm, every piece of family silver has been utilised except Goodison itself. It does make you wonder if the dynamic duo are making a bigger mess than even agent Johnson could ever have dreamed of achieving. Allied to this the startling increase in ticket prices during Bill?s tenure also gives some cause for concern.

Seeing as David Moyes has only just gone on his holidays, when was the last time he spoke to the fans via the media? I do hope all is well at Goodison, but you do get the feeling that all is not as it should be. Long drawn out transfer targets with no sign of any progress and no public utterances regarding squad building from the manager all adds to the concerns of Blues? supporters.

What progress has been made on Mikel?s future, he?s not been involved in any tournaments — so what is the reason for Everton not securing his future? Carsley and Stubbs were signed pretty quickly. Perhaps those who believe that the Kirkby plans are going to take a large chunk out of Everton?s petty cash are correct and the re-signing of Arteta will be heralded as our major signing of the summer?

This time last year we were all watching the World Cup Finals group matches safe in the knowledge that we had made three signings, this year with less than a fortnight to go before pre-season training begins we have done no significant business. I admit that not much business has been carried out by most of the Premiership, and I also advocated patience, but given that we had a small squad to begin with , you would have thought we would have added one or two squad players at least.

Will David Moyes celebrate his 200th Premier League game against Wigan? I for one wouldn?t bet on it.
