The transfer arms race gathers pace, this brings Huw and the Old Board's refusal to speak to alternative potential owners into sharp focus.

Dont know what their net spend is, considering the money they got for Stones not sure if its in the red or black.
But if they are blowing a fortune, the question is this: is new money being injected into the club? or are the transfers being funded through debt?
IF they are funding a big net spend AND its funded with debt secured on the club, THEN they will suffer in the long run because they do not have the turnover to support it. They have a turnover of apprixmately 130 million if memory serves.
IF the billionaire is giving them new funds, he will get fed up when they dont finish in the top 6 next season. Nothing worse then a p1ssed off benefactor. See Hull City, Cardiff City.
I dont see any good coming out of this for the Toffess TBH.
I've nothing against them though. If they do well, good for them. It'll be Interesting to see what happens over the course of, say, 3 or 4 years.
Just read the Everton Forums. Looks like they will be funding it through the sale Lukaku. [Post edited 16 Jun 2017 11:09]

Its not quite as clear as come in and chuck the money about, who's money are they using.........is it heir own or is borrowed money!?!
Looking closer to home, i would like the board at our club to be a little more adventurous but it is clear they have a plan, what that plan is...............is anybody's guess! |  |

Leave them spend, it's going to go tits up soon or later. |  |

It looks very much like the plan is business as usual. Running the club cost-neutrally with no subsidising of debt or investment other than can be raised through the operating income. A stadium purchase may be an exception to this, but who knows.
To be fair to them, this has been communicated from the start, with the obvious exception being Huw's 'to the next level' b0llocks that he was spouting to justify why he jumped at the first buyers he could find. |  | | |

The sale of Lukaku means that they have to fund a replacement who can score 20+ goals perseason that's going to cost a fortune. |  | | |

They could put a cheeky bid in for Baston......I'm sure Huw would be willing to let him go at the right price. |  |

Personally, I think Swansea City can be run on a sustainable basis without going into massive debt to fund extortionate player transfer fees etc like some clubs, but to do it everything at the Club has to be extremely well managed and well run. A key component would be a first class scouting and talent recognition program, this would run all they way through the academy up to recruiting for the first team. I believe there is some way to go before this is achieved!
Southampton are a club we should have a close look at, they develop a lot of their own talent and tend to buy low and sell high. | | | |

Is the correct answer
But on the other hand
Aston Villa (Championship club) has been sold for a reported £70 million
Hull City were bought for around £130 million (newly promoted)
West Brom around £150 million
By rushing to take the quickest dollar possible and not giving a donald duck about the club or its fans/ Trust/ supporters/ admirers etc then I still believe that our Ex board undervalued the club when they flogged the family silver
And that ladies and gents, boys and girls is the only good thing I've seen to come from the sale. |  |
| If you wake up breathing, thats a good start to your day and you'll make many thousands of people envious. |

In theory, every club can be. The lower you go revenue wise, the better the scouting/development has to be and the less room there is for signing the odd catastrophe. Yes, Southampton are a role model club, but it's not as easy as just setting up like them and bringing in a first class scouting program.
A few years ago, we were a model club, certainly on the pitch. Playing attractive, effective football with a bunch of players nobody else wanted. Everyone wanted to be like us, very few, if any managed it. | | | |

I agree that scouting is essential. We've had a fair few international players over the years. Pay them an annual sum to keep their ear to the ground. Holland and Bodde for example. |  |
