Yeah must win in terms of autos you'd have to say though I think we ****ed it already with late goal conceded Friday.

Easter weekend always feels decisive in football league and seemingly has been so for us.

Should be a good day out though and a new ground to tick off. Be interesting to see how an in form Norwich get on at lunchtime.

Yeah, that goal must have been a kick in the knackers, Friday was only a good day for Ipswich. Norwich could have a big say next few days, they have Ipswich saturday too.
I think you'll get something today,whether that's 3 points I'm not sure but if you do, with your games in hand it's not over, lose and it very likely is.

I don't even think a draw is enough tbh. A win puts us back into contention with Blackburn then 3 home games coming up but we can't afford another slip up realistically as we've had too many draws already.

I'd prefer playoffs anyway and am still hoping for a trip to Wembley but I've got a feeling one of the 3rd/4th placed teams will lose their semi.

Tried watching Blue Boyz TV on Youtube - couldn't understand the shrill and shrieks and gave up.

Reading Grand Old Team they're now regretting calling the PL corrupt and fully blaming Moshiri for being ****e.

Bottom line is for every £100 Everton make they're obliged to spend £130 <laugh><laugh><laugh>

if the search function was still useable I did say that his only interest was a stadium/redevelopment of the both docks with Usmanov.
Some are blaming Kenwright it seems for selling to a billionaire??

Not delved properly in to them fully, but I'd be more worried about administration than a points deduction at this point. Auditors have even referenced that.
 
Can someone explain this in football terms?

Club are massively in debt and losing money hand over fist. your wage to turnover ratio is 92%. Without player trading your currently currently losing £130m a year.

Clubs overall balance is -£330m and continuing to lose £130m a year (whilst in PL) £20m of these losses over last couple of years have been down to sacking managers, coaching teams and paying off directors.

Part of that is losing £16m from the Usmanov sponsorship deals. Your entire commercial department for shirt sponsorship, manufacturing, sleeve sponsorship and ground advertising is around £20m per year.

Sponsorships are not being replaced and the commercial side looks non existent.

A relegation and loss of funds if the 777 deal falls through could in effect have the club go bust.

You do have some players that have contracts expiring at end of year and you could sell Onana and Braithwaite......... but these things at present is like trying to plug a burst damn with sticky tape.

Also some company called USM?????? are due £158m this month for some loan.
