January Transfer Window 2023

[Leylo]

It doesn’t reset mate its rolls from year to year, you have to stay within a loss of 105 million for every three year period - you will always be judged on your last years set of accounts and the two previous. When the year moves forward the oldest year dropes out of the assessment but includes the newest. Essentially we have a few years to go, we’re going to be working hard to stay in these rules for a while.

Two things though, 1 the stadium will increase what we make I.e. because we make most our overspend/ losses come down.

2) Uefa are doing away with their model of FFP and the PL will to. PL one is similar to Uefa.

Uefas new model is you can spend 70% of what you earn on transfer fees, wages and agents, anything above you are in breach.

The PL are going to do away with their profit and sustainability rules to. They are going to run the same model as Uefa, however PL clubs are going to be allowed to spend more then the 70% Uefa allows, which means clubs in Europe can spend 70% - like City, while we - not being in Europe can spend more. In the initial stage you will be allowed make a loss of 40 mill, so our budget would be about 180 mill to start with, we dont know when the rules are going to be brought in for the PL just yet, but be soon - they’ve already been agreed by the clubs and announced.

Brilliant information nice one

Because we overspent for 7 years trying to play catch up (or take a short cut, whichever you prefer). And because we couldnt offer actual success, we spent more on people who werent worth it. Sigurdsson was £45m, but when you factor in 4 year contract at £120k per week, its actually cost us £70m. And since we signed him, we havent even qualified for the Europa League once. He is also 1 of many players that left for nothing at the end of the contract, so we didnt get anything back.

And if £70m on its own doesnt sound so bad, we then had to match that with many other incoming players, so we ended up with upwards to 10 players on £100-120k per week deals. Thats over £1m per week minimum in wages for players that half the time we didnt even want. Thats £52m per season for 4 years, just on our top earners, and thats before you factor in transfer fees.

Luckily for us, we didnt have to pay them much by way of win bonuses.

Bloody ell shocking, thanks for the info superb

Our big problem is that our turnover is just so low for a PL club of our size, it was £192m (i think) and when you look at all the numbers like wages and all the other stuff and some of the other clubs around us that we are looking to challenge it needs to be up around the £240-250m. Commercially as a club we have completely and utterly failed on this aspect.

Ok, this makes sense. Scary long term issues here. Playing catch up commercialy with the sky and oil clubs will be very difficult

Sack the board in the summer. We need proper professional to run our club.

And there's many reasons to sack the board but they should be sacked just on that one factor... Their inability to increase revenue.

To think that fat lard almost had us in Kirby.

Trying to catch up with those clubs is a bit much at the moment but we should be trying to make more from sponsorship deals. I get that the higher up you finish the better deals you entice and so on but it doesn't stop us from maximising what we have. I said the other day we should have a sponsor for the bloody urinals if it means extra cash for the coffers, anything we can get. We have also had multiple opportunities over the years to actually build Everton as a brand and never ever bothered to try and that goes back long before Moshiri rolled up. That's a whole other conversation though.

 

[Harryflashman]

IN ALMOST EVERY CONCEIVABLE WAY as a club we have completely and utterly failed.

Fixed that for you

 

[Simon Buttle]

Fixed that for you

I'm certainly not going to argue with that.

I might be wrong but for example I think we earn a lot less match day revenue than the likes of brighton and Southampton and roughly the same as much smaller grounds like palace & Leicester .

The entire Brighton team playing against Everton is cheaper than Iwobi. Here’s why. They buy cheap player who can do a job. That’s called proper recruitment, unlike us buying overpriced gash from other PL teams.

Securing the financing of the stadium against future match day revenue is going to make it a lot more difficult in the future.

COYB!

We used to do that before that 'kin idiot Moshiri tipped up.
