patto Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 Bell and Downing were both asked to come in and help run the club I wonder did they refuse and saw this as a chance to acquire the club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodison Glory Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 Not sure of all the details but if they've found something they didn't like (about the 777 situation) perhaps other buyers wilL also be scared off. moshri....the gift that keeps on giving!

Romey 1878 Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 With 777 and their ongoing legal issues being the problem I fail to see how a takeover will be able to go forward with anyone else tbh. dunlopp9987 and Matt 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuffRob Posted July 19 Report Share Posted July 19 I wonder is 777 /ACap have some sort of lawsuit against Everton, given money they put in to Everton but then us not selling to them. so potentially wanting more than simply the monies owed to them. ie potentially an unknown cost hanging over the club. you would think it would straight forward if we simply owed a know value.

I'm not sure how they can sue us after it was the premier league who rejected their proposal. patto 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The simply didn't ratify it, beacue all requirements never got met. Big difference. who knows the details of any contract Moshiri had with 777. perhaps 777 may believe or be claiming Moshiri has broke a contract. I don't know. but sounds like there is more to it than just pay money owed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By legal issues and risks I think it's more to do with 777 themselves and their legal issues, not 777 suing us. Which tallies with what Giulia Bould posted. Could be wrong though.

I can't understand how 777 own leagl issues would effect Everton enough for a buyer to back out. if we owe X amount then you think that simply paying off X amount breaks ties with 777/ACap. why should we be at risk!!
