Personally, I can’t see a way out of the hole were in. 777 are keeping us afloat with loans but they might not get FA approval. If they don’t, then what? We can’t give them their money back and we can’t give them stock?

And even if they do get approved, it’s pretty clear that they are carpetbagging shysters.

Whoever the ownership is, I don’t see how we can possibly return to profitability. Okay, we’ve offloaded some jokers like Gbamin and Tosun but Player wages are going up all the time. Even if you jib the likes of Keane and Holgate, you’ll only have to replace them with someone on the same money. And surely the big drain is interest repayments on the stadium which we’re stuck with for 30-40 years.

The books can’t be balanced and PSR means that you can’t bring in external investment.

They’d convert it to stock. If they own less than 25% and don’t have a board seat, they don’t need PL approval.
 

This has probably been raised on here before, but here's my conspiracy theory...

The reason for the delay is because of Chelsea. The PL want to let them off all charges because it was a "previous regime", but they can only do that if they do the same with Everton and 777. The second they let 777 through the door, they will undermine their reasoning for letting Chelsea off the hook if they continue to try and screw us over. Therefore they won't let the 777 takeover go ahead untill they've completed the job of doing us for the minor technical breach.

I thought Chelsea's splurge spending was done under the current ownership since Roman left?

Prior to that weren't they OK?

Omg no, not by a long shot. It was the previous lot that broke the rules massively by allegedly dealing using cash in offshore accounts and not declaring between 2012 and 2019. There's a big old list of things, and at a time when they won lots of trophies, so clear sporting advantage gained. I still don't understand how the new lot have managed to spend so much and not break any rules, but they do have a large income, and lots of the deals are spread over 9 years. It's all very fishy to me.
 
Think Moshiri knew what this lot were like from the start but was more bothered about protecting his own interests above all else.

Clown.

OK, my bad. I thought Roman ran a fairly tight ship (for a dodgy Russian).
 

So administration now likely, there is no chance this 777 lot will get approved based on rumours and reports in the press.

Extremely worry times and I would say our darkest hour in our 146 year history.

Good morning folks

As Chelsea are one of the "chosen six", I suspect the PL might try to buy into this "previous regime" excuse and let them off the hook, but they can't do that if they still punish Everton with 777 through the door.

This I guessing, their involvement with Sevilla is minimal compared to other clubs (think its about 15%) they have little say in the running of the club. It's merely an investment stake by the looks of things.

would you recommend we do a Leeds and enter Administration before the end of March 2024 or wait till after the season has ended. If we do it before the end of March 2024 then the -9 points would apply to this season. If we do it at the end of the season and stay up then we would start next season on -9 points.
