The Everton Forum • Re: The Friedkin Group
If we continue to make the same progress we have since they took over then I think we'll all be very happy.
We've gone from a broke team relying on payday loans and desperately battling relegation to a mid table team with lots of promising young players, and not only a stable financial footing but a clear plan to continue increasing revenue.
I doubt we'll find ourselves challenging for titles or top 4/5 under the financial restrictions placed on teams, but it wouldn't matter how rich our owners were regarding that. All we can really hope for is competing for the second or third rate European competitors on a regular basis and maybe a cup. If we continue the current rate of progress then theres no reason these things aren't possible in the near future.
