Everton boardroom news as resignations now a matter of when at Goodison Park
Boardroom resignations are now a matter of when, not if, after Everton survived in the Premier League over the weekend, according to the Esk.
Farhad Moshiri is closing in on new investment with MSP Sports Capital after signing a new exclusivity agreement, with a 25% stake mooted in return.
That would see the American consortium gain board representation, meaning spaces would need to be made, with resignations on the horizon, it seems.
Writing on his personal Twitter account, the Esk said: “It looks very much like we have moved from if to when with regards to board resignations/removals.
“It is unlikely before new investment comes in. That is close. Change is coming, new investors and no change is not possible.”
Change.
After the jubilation of surviving yet another Premier League relegation scare, the work has started already.
Everton are a huge club and should be nowhere near this mess, but that is the reality, and change is needed from the very top to make sure that progress can be made.
No one wants to be stuck in this mess, and the fans have made their point clear enough that there needs to be changes in the boardroom to drive the club forward.
Moshiri needs better people around him if this isn’t going to be a full takeover, with the likes of Bill Kenwright and Denise Barrett-Baxendale not good enough.
MSP Sports Capital will bring fresh ideas and hopefully new hope to the Toffees, who desperately need a new breath of life to kick them up the table.
All eyes are on Everton once again, with changes and resignations around the corner.
