Re: Everton Issues
I'm assuming the £5m per game includes ticket revenue? If so, they would have been getting a decent chunk of that previously. You said "make" £5m, suggesting profit rather than revenue. That sounds a hell of a lot. Revenue. Spurs turn over £100m per season more than Everton in gate receipts than Ev...

There was also an initial expectation that a big chunk (£250m or so) of the financing for the new stadium would come from the council with a loan with very low interest rates. If they can hang on until the new stadium opens though then that will be a big uptick for their revenue. Tottenham make some...
