News of a takeover any takeover will be perceived very well by supporters of
Everton.
Owner Bill Kenwright is a Blue through and through, but he simply does not have the funds to
keep the club competing at the level it has previously under manager David Moyes, which has seen
the Merseyside club not only lag behind their city rivals Liverpool in spending on new players, but
also the rest of the Premier League.
If you were after a textbook example of top-flight English football's failed business model, you
couldn't go wrong with Everton consistently decent Premier League performers with consistently high
home crowds and a consistently money-generating transfer policy. Yet, without a sharp shift in
attitude and fortune, financial ruin awaits.
