Going back to the time when John Moores was chairman, it was total cloak and dagger time - we stole Alan Ball from under shankly's nose and no one even had a clue...OK different time without the communication facilities we have now.. but for me thats a good sign about the way we seem to be conducting our business now - guarded optimism

Story was that Catterick used to meet up with targets at motorway services. He'd be wearing hat & scarf as a 'disguise'!

That's why the ability to trade players is important until we increase revenues from a new stadium and commercial/sponsorship activities.

Let's say we spend £150 million on 5 players (each on 4 year contracts) this summer each earning an average of £100,000 per week.

In accounting terms that equates to £26 million in wages and £37.5 million in player depreciation - a total of £62.5 million deducted from the P&L account. All other income and costs being equal we can live with that without a problem. However we can not repeat that exercise the following without generating player trading profits or an increase income in year 2 of this expansionary phase. That's why the biggest clubs periodically trade players - in accounting terms it allows the opportunity to keep acquiring new players whilst keeping within the PL rules/FFP in terms of over spending..

So how does this accord with people saying that Moshiri will himself bankroll new signings by injecting funds into the club? Instead, it sounds like Moshiri is confident that Everton's finances can sustain the hit of spending c.£100m-£150m and incurring the associated costs. He might inject the necessary working capital to get us going in terms of paying instalments, maybe as a loan that he might recover later on?

It's clear the Blue Heaven Holdings will finance Everton's spending - it's not yet clear how, and how BHH will fund it. It is clear though that BHH will provide the funds.

...it's all sounding so positive but nothing has happened yet since Martinez was fired. It's like waiting for Father Christmas.

Well our 'father Christmas' Moshiri has already delivered one sack (Martinez) I guess we'll just have to be a little more patient to see what 'other presents' he's going to deliver to us. Hopefully it's koeman and monchi next.
