This morning, the sports section of BBC Radio 4’s flagship news and current affairs programme, Today, featured a short interview with lifelong Everton fan, Jimmy Mulville.
The former comedian, comedy writer, producer and television presenter, voiced his concerns about Everton ownership and the protracted takeover by 777 Partners.
Mullville was a partner in the True Blue Holdings consortium that Bill Kenwright put together in 2000 to take over the running of the club from Peter Johnson.
One of his fantasies is that the Premier League implodes, describing the ownership as “fetid. It doesn’t work”.
