As a villa fan glad Everton have come out the other side without having to go down always liked Everton

[@alanmtbuk]

Still could go down if current form doesn't improve

[@languageoffootball]

That’s it patronise Everton whilst we’re on our uppers. You won’t be saying that when we’re looking down on you blerts like we have for 70% of football history!

Wealth is somewhat irrelvant to two things A) How much they are willing to spend and B) How much they will be allowed with PSR Newcastle have the richest owners by an absolute landslide yet are limited. They still have Sean Longstaff starting for them over two years since the takeover.

[@ramblingimbecile2295]

The thing Everton have in their favour is a brand new stadium, there are new commercial opportunities available now thay simply wasn't available at Goodison Park. Do you think if Taylor Swift was to visit Liverpool next year she would have the concert at Anfield or the new stadium? Everton are already seeing bigger sponsorship deals in light of the stadium being completed. Say what you want about Castore, they're paying Everton £20m to be on their shirts. Red Bull have signed a sponsorship deal. Big brands want to be associated to the club thanks to the new stadium, Everton will generate considerably more revenue which, coupled with more astute transfer policies, will see Everton improve far above their current position.

[@astralchimp]

Everton will still be throttled by FFP ect just like Newcastle

[@jennyradcliffe5570]

All clubs will be now... its about clever recruitment and a plan

[@Sutty0151]

Newcastle haven’t got a new stadium to take advantage of new sponsorships Everton have plus there’s a chance of a billion+naming rights deal with Toyota since TFG run it who knows 🤷‍♂️

@@Sutty0151can’t polish a turd though. End of the day it’s Liverpool not London, New York, Monte Carlo, or even Manchester in terms of real estate and brand value

[@McKamikazeHighlander]

Unlike Newcastle fans, we Evertonians do not take a new ownership as a signal that we're about to set the Premier League alight. Doesn't matter how rich they are, FFP prevents anyone outside of the traditional Top 6 from challenging for the top spots. But this at least means that we are now financially stable. This isn't us getting carried away, this is us simply relieved that the circus is finally leaving town

[@Sutty0151]

@@languageoffootball actually you can polish a turd and Newcastle is the perfect example of it and as for the city it gets loads of tourists one of the highest in the country it doesn’t need to be London the northwest of England is the crem della crem of English footy and as for brand you build that up by performing just like nufc did something which we’ll hopefully start doing once dyche is sacked

@@Sutty0151 you’re clueless you hahahahahaha. Absolute melt

[@dannyetches7089]

As a Roma fan who also loves Everton I'm far from happy. Yes investment, but left us in a hole right now and protests against the board ongoing. Recruitment of De Rossi was ill-advised, a club legend destined to fail which he did. Now we have a fractured dressing room and fan base as in our eyes both De Rossi and Jose were immortal. If you read the Italian media's reporting on this, we fans want them out, but please not Everton.

Idiots on here in comments talking absolute BS..!! Roma fans were absolutely ecstatic about Friedkin, they've only become pissed this season cos he sacked Rossi who to Roma fans is a legend but he was sacked after 1 win in 14 (Sackable offence for an owner who wants the best and the money to pay for success) So wind your necks in shut your green eyes of jealously..!! My Beloved Football Club has been in very long 'Dark Tunnel' for a few years and now a 'Bright Shinning Light' is on the Horizon..A total rebuild from Top to Bottom now will begin which is what we need then ONWARDS AND UPWARDS..!!

As a Newcastle fan I can tell you now, wealthy owners has no effect unless you are already an establish top club

[@ragnarok8952]

so what they won't be able to spend their money thanks to PSR - Newcastle richest club in the world but had to scramble to sell 2 good players in June to meet PSR

[@MattieGorman]

Newcastle are not the richest club in the world they have the richest owners! But they aren’t even in the top 20 richest clubs in the world! You have to earn that status not cheat your way to it😂

[@McKamikazeHighlander]

This isn't about success on the pitch. This is about financial stability. Nothing more

[@ramblingimbecile2295]

Everton have more potential to attract sponsorship thanks to the stadium. Big deals have already been signed and more deals are in the works.

[@davidwebster5946]

It's irrelevant how much money he has. These new owners have less than 2% of the wealth of Newcastle owners but because of PSR there is a ceiling that has been put in place Will this guy clear all the debts of the club? I doubt it American owners always want a refurn on investment

[@agentancelotti2985]

Yes he is clearing all the debts from the club and Everton have a new stadium bigger history than Newcastle so more attractive proposition

[@davidwebster5946]

@@agentancelotti2985 His net worth is only 6 billion dollars and most of that is tied up in assets. Everton are over £600m in debt only £200m of that is his.

What absolute garbage you’re talking. They literally turned Roma around as they were in a total mess. Dear oh dear… Those who know the least shout the loudest.

[@Sutty0151]

If they don’t perform they get sacked just like irl de rossi won 1 in 13 that’s a sackable offence

[@McKamikazeHighlander]

Clearly you have no clue what you're talking about. Roma went from being in a piss poor state financially to being in a pretty stable position. It was far worse off before Friedkin. Results on the pitch are a different matter entirely because having a rich owner no lonher changes that thanks for FFP. This has nothing to do with performances on the pitch, only the finances of the club - which is one thing Roma dont have to worry about anymore. Nice try though
