"All for one, one for all, Everton's the team that plays beautiful football"
“It’s the most wonderful time of the year”…. Genuinely, I feel Christmas is upon us when the Everton Annual Report & Accounts slip into the inbox – time for mince pies and perhaps a glass of something warming as I review the financial affairs of our beloved club in the year 2017/18 (year ending 31 […]
Where is the growth coming from? Revenue growth is so important to any business regardless of whether they’re at the top of their particular industry or market, or as I like to believe Everton should be, a challenger organisation with a view to dominating the market in future years. The question for the […]
I tweeted a few days ago that longevity at the top of business can be a rare event or concept. Businesses, organisations and sporting competitions rarely stay constant enough for such longevity to exist, and perhaps even more so in our modern highly paced world. Everton Football Club are one of the oldest professional football […]
In a recent tweet I highlighted the difference in levels of non-broadcasting income growth between Everton, Manchester United and Liverpool. I highlighted the fact that Liverpool FC have increased non-broadcasting income by £140 million (2016/17 accounts) in the 12 years since 2005, and Manchester United a staggering £293 million.

One of the things that strikes me throughout the period that Bramley-Moore has been our proposed new home is the language various officers within the club have used to describe the process of raising finance for the stadium.

In doing so he becomes the clear majority owner of the club. As per the statement, […]
Guest article – written by Everton_Damon aka ‘Damo’ Marco Silva: favours wingers who can support the striker Walcott is a proven international whom it could be argued did not match the potential he had of his youth due to spells blighted by injuries (he had spells out injured in seasons: 2006/2007, 2009/2010, 2010/2011, 2013/2014, 2016/2017).

I suppose you never get to being a multi-billionaire without being unconventional, and having the ability to surprise along the way. Alisher Usmanov has certainly demonstrated those abilities in the two and a half years his business partner Farhad Moshiri has owned 49.9% of Everton Football Club. In that time, his holding company (minority owned […]
So where did all the money come from? The surprising answer to this question is that we (Everton) are likely to have financed the summer by using our existing resources.
