The Friedkin Group reaches agreement to buy Everton

Really nice words…

Great that.

This is what people think of us @matty1878, they dont hate us.

Can't argue with that!

Can't argue with any of that.

If their stated ambition is to see Roma competing at the highest level then direct ownership of two clubs who would ultimately be in the same competition doesn't work.

Something has to give. Unless that something is they don't actually want two clubs playing in Europe.

I like him calling BMD 'The Blue Camp' Barca eat your heart out!

Blue Camp, I like your thinking.

ha ha.. take your word for that lid.

I just enjoy a bunch of message board nerds comparing home made spreadsheets, arguing about which of their spreadsheets the billionaire football club owners should be using as a blueprint,

I have a degree in economics and even I despise the financialisation of football fan culture. Ordinary fans talking like brokers rather than about Michael Olise's performance at the weekend or Pep Guardiola's anger management issues. It's a plague on the sport.

Yes, if the current speculation around RMF and legacy 777 debt being paid off (and the small metro loans), then we have removed at least 30m (likely closer to 40m) in interest costs never mind the principal we should have been repaying from our annual PL and liabilities. If true and with a proper commercial team in place, our PSR problems from hereon are no more.

Of course we still have to address the remaining PSR skeletons from BK but ideally this current season will be the end of that.

Agreed. It won't be "spend spend spend" ... like that post

debt free?

spend spend spend?

(correctly tho?)

It'll be "sustainable growth" from real business people

Not a failed actor / theatre producer who spent 20 years treating Everton like his private property despite never owning more than 25% of the company.

As you are aware Friedkin was my "preferred bidder" over Textor as it was meaning that debts would be repaid immediately.

I want what is best for EFC, at which I'm a season ticket holder

I'll scrutinise what Friedkin Group do and how they run my club as a business.

It is the best option available to EFC however

Very few proper sound journos out there and Henry is right at the top of the list.

Was that why they made him redundant?

I always liked Henry. He upset the rough boys.

Potentially debts will be paid.

It seems logical, but we don't know yet.

Lack of any logic around Everton for a long time.

The League Cup would be enough for starters.

Because they don't want actual journalists these days.

They want social media bro's pushing the so called top 6 Narrative.

Not going to happen this season
