Also even if you set aside the mad right wing stuff.... This is an absolutely terrible way to do journalism?
Think GB News has totally normalised the idea that you can essentially be interviewed by your fan club.

Everton right to walk away from this deal if these are the terms.
In a very good scenario, Dibling might become an £80m player in a few years. In this scenario Everton would only see £10m of that because of the sell-on clause.
Why would anyone take a £50m risk on a prospect with so little return?

A £250k one-off payment in order to dodge potentially tens of millions in tax???
The 'bonuses' would be worth approximately 7p per worker.
It's a good deal for someone, and it isn't the workers...

Last time I checked you needed to be in power before you could 'ditch' legal targets.
Or does 'poised' mean '3rd in the polls and 4 years away from an election'?

Maybe we could sell them Isak for £100m and then resign him on a free at the end of the window when they aren't allowed to register him? #nufc

It's actually a quote from him. He also says he hates playing with an overlapping fullback behind him. It would be a big adjustment from PSV, I am not sure Eddie would trust him right away. In which case we might as well wait until the summer when there are potentially better options.

UK 10yr yields falling back to where they were pre-Budget.
Given that the rise was such a huge issue, I must have missed all the breathless coverage of what the fall means...
