I think we need more players as well as back room right now.

Hopefully these are all the right appointments but it feels like a lot of changes in a short period.
It's not as if we had a really stable core that was producing results and this is rocking the boat though is it? A lot of them are people who've worked together before too, so it's not like they all need to start from scratch.
 
More staff than players. Not sure that’s a good thing 🤷‍♂️
Yeah can still see more hopefully id like better in all areas media, everton merch everything needs go up a level. Is abit frustrating with players as thought could have had an easy win with a backup gk maybe a fb aswell.
 

Gonna be a long wait to officially confirm, doubt the club will release any info before it’s in the accounts. Dare say some journos will do some digging.

Benchmark is Villa doing 55m for their women’s team, that didn’t include a (formerly) PL stadium in the package though.
Did Chelsea sell their women's team for 200 or was that a lot of baloney
 

So Everton have not necessarily sold Goodison yet, they’ve just released it from a charge on another debt, is that correct?

Possibly lining up for a sale.

Or has a sale been confirmed anywhere?
I think Goodison had more charges against it than Citehs FFP charges no at one point, or ar least it seemed that way.
 
Yeah, none of that was really the point? I was just saying people keep saying stuff like 'finally we have people who take advantage of things', but actually we did have people who took advantage of these things, it just didn't work out. It's not a defence of the old owner or a criticism of the new ones, just pointing out that we were previously not in any way 'too nice' to take advantage of loopholes.
If it didn’t work out, then they didn’t take advantage of those things. They just tried to, amateurishly.

They tried and failed to get one up on the system. And we were absolutely battered for their failure.

They weren't trying to take advantage, they were just cash-starved after the Ukraine invasion and largely incompetent.

Agreed though, being nice had nothing to do with it.
