I was under the impression that one of the plus points about Goodison was with being an older stadium the fans were closer to the pitch therefore creating a more initidating atmosphere for (rival) players?   Looking at this they they going to lose that element of what makes Goodison 'special'.

Anyway, hope they spend their first season in it wallowing around at the lower end of the Championship. 

 

It's to help stop them launching kids, bottles, balls etc at opposition players.

I cringe every time they refer to Goodison as "the Grand Old Lady".

 

Couldn't they have come up with a more original name than just robbing one off Juventus?. It's only become a thing the last 4 or 5 years as well. 

What is funny, is they'd didn't make it up. It's one of those thing Kenwright made up to distract them from the shit hole he failed to get them out of year after year. They then blame Kenwright for the demise of the club, yet cling on to all his lovey distraction, theatre poster catchphrases. Born not manufactured. Six of the worst words. Handing Moyes the people's club.

 

They're fucking mental. They revel in the stuff designed to take the piss out of them.

Oh I disagree, Grand Old Lady is very apt. Ancient, decrepit and stinks of piss.

Hands out boiled sweets indiscriminately to all and sundry.

Regardless of whether this points deduction sticks or not the next 6 months or so are going to be absolutely wild for these cunts.  The stadium build for them has got to be the most financially stupid decision ever made in football.  They are too small of a club for a new stadium costing that much money in a city that isn’t London for it to ever be financially viable.  I thought it was dead in the water when the commonwealth games situation was laughed out.  Imagine the Joe Anderson loan proposal would have gone through.  What sort of panic stations would the council be in now?

 

The increase in capacity is minimal and nobody is travelling to the city to see that stadium and even if there are some people who will go there on non match days how much money is this actually going to bring in?  After the initial buzz wears off the ticket prices will have to come down after the cold and difficulty getting down there kicks in.  If you read GOT there seems to be this fantasy land where all sorts of bars and hotels will get built down there.  For what? Once every two weeks for 9/10 months a year loads of people go to the stadium nearby and have a couple of pints and go home.  It’s insane.

 

Even if they survive this year which I think they will surely they’re going to have to sell players and not be able to buy anyone to turn these massive accumulated losses around.  You’d expect the squad is going to be in an even worse state next year.

 

Getting on to the ownership situation there’s a new article from the Josimar they’ve shared on GOT.  It’s an interesting read on why 777 are anywhere near them.  He seems to think that they’re going to use the fact that they own Everton as capital against taking on more debt to fund their insurance businesses.  The whole thing is off the charts.  A few of the posters think they’re going to get in and “sell” the stadium which doesn’t really add up either.  The only benefit someone would have buying that stadium is rent from Everton who appear to be on the verge of collapse.  With the stadium costing 500m+ that’s about 30 years of say 25m a year in rent before they started seeing a return (considering the time value of money before any points out my bad maths).  It’s a comically bad risk to take.

 

The whole thing is a shitshow.

Isn't today allegedly Judgement Day?

 

The dreams of three billion Evertonian lives ended on May 20th, 1995. The survivors of the Heysel disaster called the war Judgment Day. They lived only to face a new nightmare: the war against the Sly 6. The computer which controlled the machines, The Premier League, sent two Terminators back through time. Their mission: to destroy the Evertonian Resistance. The first Terminator was programmed to strike at us, in the year 1985. It failed. The second was sent to strike at us ourselves, Ian Rush, when he was still a child. As before, the Resistance was able to send a lone warrior, Bill, a protector for Everton. It was just a question of where the Arteta money had gone.

"It's not fair" is that really enough of a defence for the league to give them back their points. Not only did they cheat but they were warned and said fuck you.  The only justice in this situation  is the punishment remaining and reassessing their covid losses and adding that tally to their current deduction. Hopefully administration and further points deduction and the rest of their money being spent on turning BMD back to the way it was cue the city getting its bullshit heritage status back which we would never of heard the last of it it was us.... shit remember one idiot firing a firework at the liver building.
