Will my friend... theyll both be paraded simultaneously when the rigged ’YES’ vote is announced on the Kirkby move.

3 Days since the Yakubu fee was agreed???? Today is Thursday, the deal was announced on Wednesday, a little bit of math and I get one day. And grow up waynemc with this rigged vote crap. Ballots were mailed out, an independent group is doing the ballots, there has been no evidence of vote rigging.

"theyll both be paraded simultaneously when the rigged ?YES? vote is announced on the Kirkby move."

If you think its rigged then you are one paranoid lad. How can it be riggged when the people doing it are independent and conduct the elections for the government.

Ah Gavin, your last sentence lets you down a bit. "How can it be riggged when the people doing it are independent and conduct the elections for the government." Hmm let me see, cash for questions, cash for peerages, weapons of mass destruction. Please don’t use the government as any yardstick for all things honest and true.

However, Gavin I totally agree with you on the point that any suggestions that the vote has been rigged are unfounded. The vote has been as fair as the club could possibly make it, but the propaganda spewed out from the club regarding such things as, No plan B, were quite deplorable.

shaun the cash for questions, cash for peerages, weapons of mass destruction etc. to my knowledge had nothing to do with the ERS. Unfortunately the cock-up of postal votes in the local elections a few years back, to my knowledge, was. It won’t be rigged. It might on the other hand be flawed but never mind we will see (I didn’t get a vote any way!).

New stadium, transfer record broken twice in a day ( Fernandes £12m total just edging out the Yak ).... they’ll be dancing in the streets of Walton! What an amazing coincidence they’ve ’saved’ these deals until tomorrow. It’s Win-Win-Win again isn’t it?

Whatever any Evertonian’s opinion on ground moves, Moyes, players, tactics, merchandising etc, just remember we are being led a a very cynical and manipulative group. Even Salman Rushdie Kenwright has suddenly come out of hiding with a well prepared interview just in time to join the party!

Sorry Rob, I probably didnt make myself clear. I was just pointing out the fact that stating the Government use the services of ERS is hardly a glowing recommendation. Anyway that has got nothing to do with Everton, I like many others am waiting with eager anticipation for the outcome of the vote. Then perhaps we can start to concentrate on matters of the pitch rather than this tiresome will we or wont we move debate
