Optimistic Nut Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 Where's this about us needing to raise £6m before end of June? Will we not just get that in prize money/sponsorships anyway? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannybagoftudor Posted May 3 Share Posted May 3 From the beginning of War of the Worlds - this, hopefully is how our owners are progressing this cluster fuck: "Yet across the gulf of space, minds that are to our minds as ours are to those of the beasts that perish, intellects vast and cool and unsympathetic, regarded this Premier League with envious eyes, and slowly and surely drew their plans against us." H.G. Wells. Earth changed to Premier league by me - lol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each league place is worth roughly £3m, so 6th vs 8th is a £6m swing on its own. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leadenhall's US court filing stated: "Everton is the latest shiny object of Wander’s fraudulent scheme, solvency aside. "Upon information and belief, Wander and [co-owner Steven] Pasko are operating a giant shell game at best, and an outright Ponzi scheme at worst, that takes money in from investors and lenders and shuffles it around to various money-losing alter egos in the enterprise to disguise their true financial condition." it’s a good job we have a good system in place to protect clubs from these sorts of shenanigans………… Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 So is there any prospect of Everton getting another points deduction this season at this rate? I've got the dumb and dumber gif lined up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfcastle Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Well the PL's crack team in the fit and proper persons department with the game and fans at its heart certainly gave that lot a thorough going over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got the dumb and dumber gif lined up. I think even if they went into Administration today there's a cut-off point where it would be applied the following season. Presumably to stop teams who know they are safe just taking the -9pt hit with minimal consequences. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pokerprince2004 Posted May 5 Share Posted May 5 Saw a post on twitter saying it is not impossible Everton will tactically take administration before the end of May if 9 points clear of relegation, think it was that finance expert Stefan Borston. The cut off rule only applies to EFL not PL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure clubs take a loan of the minimum premier league prize money at the beginning of the season as they know they will get it at the end of the season regardless. I think PIF did it last season loaned £140m. So the prize money is already spent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keegans Export Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 I'm still not 100% sure on what the current state of play is - obviously 777 want to buy the club, but aren't they currently funding the ongoing operations? What happens if they stop doing that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbandit Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 Grim stuff, at least the PL have done their rigorous checks and they’re happy with 777 though so it should all work out fine* *For the big six Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
