• The utterly corrupt Citteh, disgracefully exonerated by football's farcical "powers that be" (financially and, far more significantly, humanely re those they kill and torture) think they need only to merely, really, improve their goal difference to try to "graft" (meaning "corrupt") another win in their disgusting enterprise. We're next in their corrupt seeking of vindication. Does our squad have it within their capabilities to take a point or three off them? Genuinely, I doubt it, but please make me sound like a muppet lads!...

• Surely the people subscribing to Sky and the like are primarily interested in watching their own teams games? And as a secondary interest another team? And a thirdary interest in football in general? So all clubs can have a 3 o'clock Saturday kick-off and Sky sell subscriptions based on your primary choice of team with add on packages for Video On Demand to watch other teams matches straight afterwards, or instead of, or at your leisure. This would be better for a lot of overseas fans like me who would then have a reasonable viewing time to watch a live match instead of silly o'clock in the dead of the night, something I've given up on. Those with wider interest than their own team can then acess the VoD matches. Alternatively, and possibly a little more difficult, the EPL and Sky get together at the time the fixtures are generated and pre-plan the revised schedules to suit the broadcasters and not leave it until the last minute. This minimises disruption to fans except for cup / Eu...

• Kunal #19, "to commercialise the shit out of the club" is how you generate the revenues that allow you to compete for big-money player talent -- and therefore the Champions League and the PL title. The RS can spend £100m on a player because they have 4x our commercial revenues -- because 15 years ago their new owners made the decision "to commercialise the shit out of the club". I am hoping that's exactly what TFG does. Why wouldn't you? As for taking good care of the average Evertonian, let's wait and see if they deal with the obvious issues of ticket prices and stadium access, but I'm pretty sure changing kickoff times isn't ownership's call....

• Loyalty also has to work both ways.rnrnIs the club actively trying to make life difficult for supporters or is it just attempting to maximise revenue and hoping nobody is inconvenienced too much?rnrnI am entirely sympathetic to genuine hardship cases but I’m much less bothered if people are just peeved that their preferred routine needs some readjustment....

• Right-o, Tony, American owners aren\'t interested in winning, just money. rnrnWell, except for that American-owned club leading the league at this moment.rnrnAnd the American owners who won the league last season. rnrnOur American owners broke the club transfer spending record last summer with £97 million. Want to bet they don\'t go £50-£60 million above that this summer?rnrnHeck, even Wrexham won three straight promotions for the first time in history and barely missed the Championship playoffs. Who owns them again?rnrnYeah, Yank owners just suck....
