Five different entities appear to be in the running when it comes to the future ownership of the Blues. A look at who they are, how much they're worth, and what their plans might be.
Without the points deducted by the Premier League under an opaque and inconsistent sanctions framework that saw Forest lose half as many, Everton would have finished 2023-24 in a highly respectable 12th-place berth.
It's been a restorative week in terms of the manager’s standing with many fans and Dyche has now proved that he represents a rare and much-needed element of stability at a club still distressed by an uncertain future
If there was one message that could be delivered to the players, it's that you are a lot better than performances and results have demonstrated in recent weeks. The four key matches against teams around us that remain provide the perfect opportunity to prove it.
If the Premier League had had their way, Everton would have been deducted SEVENTEEN points this season. And despite two Independent Commissions and one Appeal Board, they're still fighting the club over stadium interest costs while Nottingham Forest got half the penalty and the Manchester City case remains a mirage
Everton couldn't have asked for better circumstances, relative to their wider predicament off the pitch, to turn their form around heading into the final 10 games of the season
The threat of the charge for a second alleged breach of PSR still looms large but the Club and its fans at least have a modicum of clarity about their situation following the Appeal Board ruling
The evidence of the past four years shows that the great promise of Video Assistant Referees as a panacea to controversy was a false prophecy. VAR, as implemented by these officials and under the current guidelines, is deeply flawed and the soul of the game suffering for it
Out now, a new book that documents unbridled ambition crashing into chaotic reality, starting in 2014 when Farhad Moshiri first began talks about taking a stake in Everton and going right up to the present day.
It's absurd that Everton could be punished for the same crime twice in the same season
Everton’s appeal against their penalty might yet see them claw some of those docked points back but, in the meantime, they will push on, displaying the kind of character that Sean Dyche has so admirably harnessed in his 11 months in charge at Goodison.
Not since that thrilling evening against Crystal Palace 19 months ago has the Old Lady rocked and roared to a winning performance under the lights like did tonight. It may have taken a couple of mistakes from an unlikely source to open the door but, make no mistake, Everton were full value for this victory.
Everton ground out a laudable victory over a team that had only lost once at home all season and, until today, hadn’t lost successive fixtures at the City Ground in 15 months
The 10-point penalty meted out to the Blues was what so many have said – a disproportionately harsh sporting punishment for a financial crime that makes a mockery of the very concept at the heart of the Premier League's unevenly applied rules: sustainability
It’s hard to shrug off the feeling that there was nowhere near enough distance between the prosecution and the adjudicating entity for this to have been a truly fair process.
In terms of mentality and unity of purpose, Everton are night and day from the team that twice lost at Selhurst Park two seasons ago and which went into the World Cup break in disarray
As much as seeing a hard-earned victory slip away late on rankles, four points from the last two games and progress in the cup is a decent return for a week's work
Everton are becoming a much more difficult visiting opponent now that Sean Dyche is in charge and this was another professional performance away from home that delivered three precious points
This was the tonic to lift Evertonian spirits heading into a two-week hiatus before the trip to Mordor. Had the margin of victory been twice as wide, Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola couldn’t have complained.
For all the manager’s talk of changing the story, this was a tale so depressingly predictable to Everton fans that it’s been practically chiseled into the brickwork at Goodison Park in recent years
This smothering display set the benchmark for how the side should approach teams away from home and reinforced the notion the Blues should be nowhere near the bottom three come May. It also raises hopes that the Blues could go deep into a competition they have never won.
This often confounding Everton team is now up and running in terms of picking up their first victory of the season having finally found the cutting edge up front they've been missing
It was curious how much respect Everton paid Arsenal today and how meekly they seemed to accept their fate; as if defeat were obvious before a ball was kicked
The Blues were left to count the cost of missed chances as, just like the opening day, the visitors found the decisive goal to render the effort from Everton meaningless by the final whistle
Emotions are already running high after Everton's bad start. Neither the actions of a tiny few nor a media waiting to pounce are helping
Round and round and round we go. A change in manager, a couple of new players. Hope followed by disappointment then humiliation and despair. This is the lot for Evertonians, it seems.
A new season kicking off under a different manager than the one who began the last with hope rather than optimism this time that the club won’t be mired in a relegation dogfight come May… There has been change at Everton over the past 12 months and yet so much remains depressingly the same.
If he can regain his fitness and his form, the Dele Alli story could add a fascinating dynamic to Everton’s 2023-24 season given that, on his day, he is a world-class performer. He might only have a narrow window to prove it, though
