That's Bill for you.

But I dont know why you want Everton punished to get shut of him and DBB and co.

Bill and that lot can never return.

I would have thought that you might be similar to a lot of us who look at this allegation against Everton and see it as unfair given the very real pressures of dealing with a pandemic, the withdrawal of investment because of the Ukraine War and the ongoing costs of building a stadium, but you seem to be encouraging those going after Everton to put us into the Championship.

That's the way it appears to me at least.

@theesk is going to give detailed analysis

I find his analysis insightful

I am also waiting on that and other commentary before I start screaming "ITS UNFAIR"

What I do know however is Bill Kenwright is the worst thing to ever happen to Everton Football Club

He's a disgrace. He has been asked to resign. But refused. His reasons are ridiculous. You get the idea of them below. Delusional. Detest him utterly

That wasnt my idea though, and that's where you didnt listen, you just spouted off.

I havent once said Everton can or should so. I have just pointed out to you they could.

What was nonsense, was that a premier league rulebook could prevent that. It cant. As you have subsequently stated.

It can. If you don't follow the rulebook you are in breach of contract and the other party has cause against you.

I wanted evidence.

I'm still not ready to claim its unfair. I'm gathering evidence. Before judging.

What I do know is Bill Kenwright and Denise Barrett Baxendale are a disgrace. They are to blame.

I have masses of evidence of that!

To say that Kenwright and DBB are a disgrace and implicated in this referral is a given.

But the process looks wonky to me. EFC seem to have a good case to put together in mitigation what with the pandemic, the block on Russian-regime connected investment, the once in a century stadium construction costs and the damage done to tv revenues.

Just because this club have a hierarchy that should be in the bin doesn't persuade me that the PL have made the right decision to refer Everton.

What are you talking about.

With all the write-downs and crystallized COVID losses we still massively missed the P&S cut-off. Our entire defence is based on theoretical losses from the depressed transfer market. We are claiming for theoretical losses from an inability to sell players, plus wages, plus amortisation costs.

Basically the Premier league have called us out. The auditors have bailed because they were presumably not prepared to quantify our losses.

Even now we can't put a figure on it.

I dont think you have understood what I'm saying at all.

I am saying exactly what you have said back.

The write downs have bee previously accepted. But its irrelevant, as even with the write downs accepted, we are still in breach of the arbitrary figure the PL have attached. So it's kind of irrelevant.

Politely, have a read back to the previous post I put, because I am stating something very different to what you seem to think I am stating.

I have no idea what the clubs defence is.

Dyche just might be able to keep us up with a points deduction. I wouldn't like to bet we can run up 50 points next season though.

Good luck dealing with this catcherintheeye individual.

Numerous people have tried telling him.

Thinks he knows better. Unfortunately.

I mean, you've tried to tell me something, I have corrected you, and you have then started reiterating what I was saying.

And politely mate, you were whining a few pages back because everyone was laughing at you. So you seem to be describing yourself.

The PL rulebook requires them to make the referral.

Indeed not doing so would cause Everton more problems in the long run I think. Not doing it last year stored up the issue. It's now 6 clubs demanding action not 3.

This EFC hierarchy have extracted the urine.

Everyone can see it


"I may have been castigated by some fans"
"it is with no fear of further criticism"
"the recent instruction given to myself and my fellow board members not to attend Goodison Park all the more painful"
"That has hurt deeply"

Playing the victim.

I think our only get out is that we have apparently been dealing with the PL for sometime in regards to our finances, so are the PL just posturing before this independent regulator comes in to force? Either way, we won’t be in this division soon, the club has completely hamstrung itself with its reckless spending over the last 6 years.

Ok. So the premier league can prevent you suing someone, by errr, letting someone sue someone.

I dont think you really understand what you are saying mate.

I try and keep it simple for you. Business can sue one another. They dont need to run it past some guy called Damo, to scroll through a rulebook to be able to do so either. They will just do it.

You can only sue with CAUSE
