New Everton Owners: The Friedkin Group

[mikel_88]

You wont see it unless PSR scrapped...The game is rigged by the Red cartel.

Honestly it's as simple as that

Isnt it going to squad ration whatever the hell is that, will put us in a better postion than sone others but gap at the top will be far

Dunno mate...am losing track of it all.

I'm hoping fr two things to maximise trophy possibilities:

1/ a sale in the next few years to a sovereign wealth fund

2/ a Euro Super League that destroys the PL and makes pariah's (overstretched and weakened pariah's) out of 'the elite' clubs in this country

That’s got to be their endgame . They won’t be able to skim a lot of the top like those leeches at United. They want to steady the ship , get our reputation up and sell to the big boys for a huge profit . When you read it in black and white you can see what a gamble investing in football can be .
I hope it works out for them .

I can't see a great deal of scope myself for a sale to a Sovereign Wealth Fund. If looking at the Arab world, then Bahrain would come to mind, but their SW fund isn't much bigger than the turnover of The Friedkin Group.

Loaned the club money, then demanded we repay it and huge interest

Same think with more money and better run club would like think well it would be more of an advantage ober clubs like brentford fulham ect but honestly just make up the rules

….just think about folk making a quick buck, things being dodgy and brown envelopes.

That's very worthy. But to win trophies you need massive spending.

Palace didn’t spend massively to win the FA Cup, Leicester didn’t to win a PL and an FA Cup nor did Wigan, Birmingham, Swansea etc

By and large you DO have to spend big.

Four of those clubs are no longer PL sides though.

 

[CielosGrises]

We are being sold again ? Has The Esk come back ?

 

[PeregrineT]

Oh, so just lave out 6 teams then. Are they the new rules?

Oh, so you didnt know the new window was just for those 6? It seemed obvious to me the moment they announced it, since no one else can afford to spend then.

 

[PeregrineT]

West Ham, Burnley, Brentford and Sunderland have all spent more...that;s besides the 'top 6' clubs that aren't even top 6 anymore outspending us.

Next...

Hah, you might want to actually look up what players they signed before going down this route. Seriously, go look it up.

You will find *drumroll* loan players being made permanent! Those 4 clubs you listed just added a grand total of..........one 10m goalkeeper. The other 7 players were already their players, they just made them permanent.

Newcastle just bought a trophy.

Think they’ve been very shrewd and built well in the transfer market over the last 2 seasons.

Doesn’t guarantee you a trophy though.
