The Elstone Prophecy as set out in his Book Of Revelations (otherwise known as his Proof Of Evidence to the Public Inquiry into Desperation Kirkby):

12.1 Perhaps one of the most important issues to address is the implications for the Club if the project fails.
12.2 Given the deficiencies of Goodison Park, the Club would have no choice but to continue its search for an alternative new stadium site. However, given the comprehensive search taken over the last 10 years prior to Kirkby, finding a suitable site is very unlikely in the short to medium term if at all.
12.3 Whilst the search would continue, we would continue to invest in Goodison Park as best we could. Meaningful redevelopment of Goodison would not be possible and therefore at best any ?improvements? could enable the Club to stand still.
12.4 We would almost certainly fall further behind our rivals and indeed face the risk of a real significant decrease in some of our key revenue streams, increasing the pressure on the Club?s ability to sustain a competitive level of player expenditure (wages and transfers). On this basis the Club would find it increasingly difficult to compete with its Premier League rivals in terms of attracting, retaining and developing the best players.
12.5 It follows that, if this project fails, the Club?s on-pitch performance is therefore highly unlikely to remain at the current levels and indeed risks deteriorating significantly. If consent is not granted and this unique opportunity is missed, the Club?s ability to improve facilities, generate additional revenues and secure long-term success will be severely impaired, leading to the erosion of a pre-eminent football asset dating back to 1878.

Heard nothing from any of the horsemen (or St Suntan) since that indicates there is any hope of salvation. Isn't it about time they told us what they hope to do to stem the erosion of a pre-eminent football asset dating back to 1878.

Are we living through The End Of Days described in the holy book of Wikipedia as the end time?

The End Times, or end of days is a time period described in the eschatological writings in the three Abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity, and Islam) and in doomsday scenarios in various other non-Abrahamic religions. In Christianity, the End Times are often depicted as a time of tribulation that precedes the Second Coming of the Christian "saviour" or a "hoped-for deliverer".

Remember, we are God's Chosen People ? Nil Satis Nisi Optimum

Beelzebub (Kenwright) Out!!!
