Me too! Need people like that around the place, our strength is our unity and attitude as much as our individuals.

His analysis doesn't always convince but he has posted the documents in question. They are available to anyone who can be arsed to search but he has put a lot of time into saving people the trouble.

Look in the finances thread, or have a look at @watchedtoffee on twitter.

EFC took out a new loan this month, just as the last one was to be repaid. There is no way there isn't money to spend without sales. Look at our turnover - wage ratio in the last accounts. Won't be 50m of course, but there will be room for manoeuvre which hasn't been the case very often in...

I think Martinez is seizing the moment here. The Premier League is so overflowed with Sky money now clubs CAN say no deal. And he wants us to do just that, and have a crack at building something. Fair play.

Let's take a step back. The last time Everton were asked about Stones Martinez said it was too late for a transfer request so it would make no difference. So I guess the most obvious explanation is that is where we are at. We don't want to sell. It will be interesting to see if he is in the...

Lennon and Evans in last year of their contracts, I doubt either would be loaned.

Think you are right on Lennon. Waiting for the last minute to force it through in the hope Levy will take whatever he can get. Whether he is one of the three I am not so sure. Unless this Uruguayan striker thing is some sort of hoax. I think we genuinely are trying to sign Yarmolenko.

He hinted at it.

Makes no difference of we loan or sell JH his contract is up in July.

Well that's last minute deadline day panic buys for you ;-)

I think there is an agreement in place amongst PL clubs not to increase wages by more than 4m a season. Perhaps that is why they want JH out the door ( 2-3m? ) before doing anything? Hard to be sure of course without knowing our wages in July vs now......

If I'm not mistaken Tim is was you who once calculated that even a 70k stadium full week in week out wouldn't see us catch anyone above us financially? A real eye opener that for many. Kind of agree re loans although should we do too well they will definitely dry up domestically. Be...

Unlike when Moyes was in charge, Simple mathematics suggedt there is money available. Martinez is on record as saying so repeatedly. Or are you suggesting he is fibbing to cover the board? My reasoning is 'if it looks like a cat it's a cat'. It looks like we have money but the manager is wary...

At 0.5% I'd imagine not ;-)

Why do some of you insist on believing the lack of activity is down to the board blocking Martinez? Look we all know our owners are far from perfect - Kirkby ffs - but fact is Martinez is on record as stating our setup with BK as chairman attracted him to the club. He is a clever chap and...

Amen to that.

Let's go with the assumption there is money to spend, as it's a logical conclusion. I'm curious as to why some people on here are desperate to spend that money now just because of the injuries? It will inflate the wage bill and then leave us with too many well paid players kicking their heels...
