The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

He's a spiv.

Some people bend the key to pushy carsealesmen, other are unimpressed.

Count me in the latter category.

Billionaire spiv, like.

In the last decade or so they've been involved in CL football and have reached two European finals.

We've been mid table and relegation battlers.

Of course currently they overshadow us.

Nah.

At the end of the 2022-23 season, Deloitte valued Roma as the 24th richest club in Europe with a turnover of €214.9M. Everton on the other hand, were placed 30th with their annual turnover totalling €198M.

New stadium sees us sail past.

Probably already past them after Castore.

The potential for Premier League Everton is much more.

So, been away for 2.5 days.

What absolute guff have I missed from the angry satsuma?

Are we still Everton or have we been diluted to oblivion as predicted?

We are Roma lite and owned by the American Arthur Daley.

I was in Rome a few years back and was surprised just how active/desperate they were at all key tourist sites to sell tickets to watch Roma.

Just had a nose at their average attendances - it was half their capacity when I was there. Never selling out. So not surprised they were desperately trying to fill seats.

Friedkins have done well to increase that attendance - it's a remarkable uplift, really?

According to davek we're 1 part ribena, 100 parts tap water.

The new ground is getting moved brick by brick to Rome and being replaced by the country`s biggest Toyota dealership.

( complete with special deflector shields, for when the wind turbines come loose )

Are they actual bums on seats or just tickets sold? Attendance numbers are always jarg. Still a big swing though.
