*Shakes head* Everton again.


Fugitive

Have to say, this is much more exciting than actual football. There are so many moving parts. 

 

The filmmakers from our documentary are probably casting envious eyes over the park. What's a spat between Klopp and Salah when you've got the Machiavellian wheelings and dealings of Everton and their grubby cohort of funders.

In the 777 thread there are still a few of them who think 777’s failure makes them ripe for Qatari investment.

This stadium stuff is interesting. Apparently its going to make them rich enough to compete at the top table. Yet they couldn't present a solid enough business case to get loans from conventional lenders like banks and have had to go to "alternative lenders"

The peoples club who are against the Sly 6 spending whatever they want and are ruining the game all of a sudden want unlimited money so they can outspend everyone else?. 

 

Their hypocrisy has shocked me.

As other posts have stated, outwith asset striping (I.e. the new ground) I'm not really sure what the attraction is for their potential external owners/investors, the club is listing at a considerable rate, any medium sized business that requires £20m a month of loans to keep going as a going concern doesn't exactly scream investment opportunity.

Seen a few calling us obsessed and even loaning that we’re taking the piss out of them for potentially going bankrupt. Funny they weren’t so reserved last week eh

They were all really concerned about Liverpool going bankrupt in 2010. Just not in a nice way.

The squad and both stadiums look more like liabilities than assets, too.

Just read on the Beeb that plane company Bonza (no, seriously) has gone into administration in Australia, leaving hundreds of passengers stranded.

Bonza are owned by, you guessed it, 777.

Fit and proper owners.

Keep up keep , posted yesterday

An Australian budget airline, started last year, has just gone belly up. All flights cancelled, planes repossessed. So what, you may ask.

"Bonza’s fleet of Boeing 737 Max 8 aircraft had been repossessed.

Bonza’s private equity owners, the US firm 777 Partners, own the airline’s fleet of Boeing 737 Max 8 planes. The parent company also part owns the Canadian low-cost carrier Flair and leases its aircraft assets between the airlines"

What I don’t get is that whoever buys them will have to spend £200 million just to cover operating costs from whenever 777 started lending them money. Why would anyone do that? Plus it appears they must be running at a loss of around £20 million a month as that’s what they have to borrow to stay afloat. I can’t see how anyone generates an extra £20 million a month on top of what they currently earn so they’ll just get further into debt.

 

A lot of the 20m per month though is funding the stadium.

Is this right?

 

If that loan is over 20 years at 10.25% they will have paid 1.5 billion back

They're not repaying any capital. Just borrow the money, pay interest only.

The planes we repossessed! I don't think it's the first time it happened to 777 either, I think it happened to their Canadian airline too, but they didn't go into administration.

It would be like us buying a house on payday loans rather than a mortgage.
