Given what I've heard over the last 24 hours it seems a lot of people could do with reading this (and others).

FWIW I just did a more detailed SCR estimate for Everton in 26/27 than I had time for yesterday I think we might be tracking around 65% but the confidence range is ~60-75% depending exactly on how transfer profits are smoothed & detailed assumptions on wages added (including pay rises) & shed

There should never have been sackings today. They should be told to do their jobs and produce an imminent report into what went on. If there isn't serious action by the owners after that it tells us so much. #EFC

There's a few days and twists left yet in this window but if that Everton squad ends up weakened then serious questions need to be asked. And above Kinnear, it's Marc Watts who should be providing an update on what these owners want #EFC to be.

Thoughts. Branthwaite. Unfortunately another Mina it seems, can't have a CB that injury prone. Barry. Dreadful. Move on. Midfield. Need two hitting the ground immediately. Full backs. Obviously need two. Mentality. Now that's the question. Transfers. Time to stop talking and deliver.

Don't know what's gone on in the away end there, I'll wait for the detail. But the PL and clubs aren't helping themselves trying to sanitise the game. There will be murder at the derby at BMD cos of Seat Unique. It's a passionate and emotive sport and things need addressing. #EFC

Just checking, it's now ok to flee your homeland, because you're afraid for your safety, and seek refuge in another Country? Glad we've cleared that up. Let's hear no more about immigration and refugees then.
