We're starting to find out what it's like to be run like a 21st century professional football club.

Reminds me of that billboard advert for a washing machine in the late 1980s featuring Steve Davis: "boringly reliable."
The ultimate compliment.
You'd miss the odd head lock or high interest rate loan, wouldn't you.

I'm still pining for the points deduction appeal rumours, talk of shadowy figures like "Super Silk", and Twitter-based declarations that "Everton is compliant with PSR" a day before we are charged with non-compliance...
Personally, I don’t want to hear “Everton are confident they are within PSR limits,” the day before judgment is made ever again…

Wonder if anyone on here see,s this as a bad thing.
Not sure how it can be, obviously it’s not as good as Dan Friedkin paying it off from his current account, but that was never going to happen.
Sounds like there were a lot of takers for the deal meaning we had a choice / ability to negotiate the most favourable terms.
If they have plans on divesting it from the club for some reason, how it’s financed is neither here nor there.
What is your concern with it?

With Trump wanting to take over Greenland, China wanting to invade Taiwan and Putin having his wicked way with Ukraine, WW3 could be just arounf the corner, and we all know who wins the league when world wars brake out.

It doesn't take much imagination to figure that one out.
Or alternatively......sanctions are imposed against all American citizens and their investments are impounded.

The refinancing is good news. It was always telling that Moshiri couldn't secure it, and the club did make strenuous efforts to get commercial funding.
The fact that they could not was as clear a vote of no confidence in the whole club in general and the owner, board and executive management in particular. It should have been relatively easy to secure the financing and the market deemed them unstable and untrustworthy.
It's just another step in restoring the clubs good name and ability to conduct business with the degree of leverage you'd expect.
I hope and expect it to continue, with a stadium naming rights deal ideally backed up by a sponsor of global / national standing. The same goes for future shirt sponsorship and other deals. Let's see an end to associations with the Sport Pesas and Stakes of this world. The club is much better than what we've had to settle for in recent decades.

I had thought of that happening too, and how bad it got for us afterwards. Its bad when you can see a positive take on a world war braking out.
