Mc Nulty and O Keefe saying nothing to get excited about.

The question is who's briefing McNulty and O'Keefe. I think we know the answer to that is Ian Ross - who'd welcome a takeover like a dose of anthrax.

Trust the people who haven't let you down.

EVERTON are not on the brink of imminent takeover despite rumours a wealthy Indian company are in advanced talks with owner Bill Kenwright.

Speculation has grown in some quarters over recent weeks suggesting Mumbai-based conglomerate the Jain Group are ready to inject millions into the Blues.

Jain, construction giants, who also have vast energy and property interests in their homeland, are looking to expand to the UK, and have visited Merseyside to scout for investment opportunities in the city.

The ECHO understands they were introduced to Everton after learning of their ongoing search for a new stadium and wealthy owner, and have held talks with chairman Bill Kenwright at his London office.

But sources close to the club insist the company are one of several the Toffees’ owner meets on a regular basis, and have yet to do anything to convince him their interest will materialise into anything substantial.

Reports elsewhere today suggested Jain are exploring whether to loan the Blues money and leave Kenwright in control, or complete a full takeover.

Kenwright was present at Goodison as usual on Saturday for his side’s 1-0 defeat by Manchester United on Saturday, and was joined in by fellow director Robert Earl.

US-Based Planet Hollywood magnate Earl is a rare presence at games due to work commitments across the Atlantic, but is believed to try and make the journey for home fixtures against United and Liverpool, along with Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.
