Where should I stand?

[jsweeney17]

I was reading another thread about finances and such, I'm not to keen on all of it, mate.

Mikel was our highest earner and when you figure his wages, contract and sale we save around 25mil pounds.

Also for him personally at 29 this is his last chance for a crack at the Champs league etc.

I will miss him, but overall I think the moves we made on transfer deadline day were very sound.

Unfortunately i am 'all about' the finance side of things - its part of my job! So if Mikel was an asset which when shed saved us 25M in one year then our balance sheet must look pretty amazing based on the collective value of the rest of the team and the properties held - against a debt of 45M - I really cant understand what all the fuss is about! does anyone have a link to the club finances?

The money saved is spread over 4 years which was his contract I do believe.. Less impressive I know, but I think it's a good move.

I do hate to see him go though.

Where should you stand? The club just rounded off it's sixth minus net spend transfer window in a row by taking in £18M, cutting four wages off the books and bringing two loanees in.......

and your point is....??

You stand with Everton, the football club, of course. Not because it makes sense, but becasue its where your dad or your uncle took you to watch your first game, because when you played footy in the schoolyard you always played for Everton against the ****e, becasue you sold your record collection to pay for tickets to a final we ultimately lost and would do it many times over, because you are excited every Saturday morning .... and becasue of the 7 Billion people in the world you were lucky enough to be an Evertonian.
Boards , managers, players and fans will come and go but you will never be something else. You are an Evertonian and should be proud.

I'd stand up if it wasn't for my hard on.
