幕后花絮：战阿森纳赛前抵达球场

"Behind the Scenes : War Arsenal Stadium before arrival"

Those conicle hats. Collarless suits. Chopsticks. Etc. Coloured claret & blue. For sale in Brum soon.

Good point. You know what , forget my earlier skepticism, it is pointless.

I am just gonna enjoy the ride and assume this group is looking to own a Champions League club and have decided this is the best way to do it, by buying cheap and investing.

All aboard the optimism train! I am tired of being negative.

Proud History Happy Ending

 They do a happy ending in the Chinese massage shop in Boldmere.

So I'm reliably informed.

I am taking comfort from the fact that you don't spend 6 years at MIT just to become a hairdresser.

Evening.
been watching and reading on the sidelines. We wanted Lerner out and that's what we got.
Be careful what you wish for...................

As a statement of intent to the fans, the first thing I'd like to see them do is ship out the deadwood and pay off the contracts of the 'Hateful Eight'...

Gabby
Richards
Bacuna
Lescott
Guzan
Sinclair
Richardson
Westwood (just because he's not a very good footballer at all)

[dicedlam]

Is that real? Who are all those other names bar Tony & Keith?!

Tony has got his Sven /Simon Cowell built up shoes on

I thought of Oddbod from Carry on Screaming when I saw them.

Noticed the shirt number he went for was the Chinese lucky number 8.

Can we ask some Everton folk what Wyness is like?

[curiousorange]

I'm ambivalent at the moment. We don't know how many funds we can expect to be spent on the playing side - we may never know - but if we see sustained and sensible transfers in then he'll be a great owner. If his stated aim is an immediate return to the Prem and to make us huge in his native land then that won't happen by spending buttons, but will be huge in the same way that Leicester are huge in Thailand, or QPR are in Malaysia?

Screw it. Manager next, marquee signing to follow. I'll expect nothing less.

Hardly seems worth paying off Richardson as he's out of contract in a few weeks

...well I've just gambled and stuck £20 on us to win the Championship @16s...

If by tomorrow morning the odds have tumbled to evens then I'll know it's Wanda. If they have shot out to 25s then I'll know it's Chinese Tony from Wok U Like...here's hoping.

Well the BetWay odds I got at 16s are already down to 10s...moving in the right direction! Hopefully spending all day on refreshing rumours on here will end up making me some nice cash ;-)

Seems like they help facilitate takeovers but don't have a hand in the club themselves?

Found this link on another site, interesting reading the bottom few lines.
