The biggest threat to European culture isn’t Muslims it is is America
We have become steadily more Americanised since WWII
Our societies have got more unequal, more violent and less tolerant as a result of US business practices, politics & culture

Great thread on the gap in revenue between the ESL6 and the 14. The ESL6 revenue GROWTH is £404m MORE-compared to the 14. The table lies today, it doesn’t year in year out.The scale of the challenge for #EFC and 13
In the last ten years the average growth in revenue of the Big Six and the other 14 clubs is almost identical in percentage terms, but the absolute growth is a whole different ball game, so the gap is at an all-time high of £404m with a multiple of 3.1x.

The gap is really commercial and matchday. #EFC have chance to be towards the top of the 14
The most important driver of the gap between the two groups is commercial income, where the Big Six generate a staggering 8.2x as much as the other 14 clubs, as well as match day revenue, where the multiple is a hefty 5.3x. Broadcasting is "only" 1.6x.

Everton remain fully Everton. The lack of a RB and a reliable striker will haunt us all season. Moyes needs to adapt and others need to perform better.

Bowen always gives Everton fits. Terrific player. Have to dig this one out now. A test of character as much as talent.
