Welcome to this special edition of the Results Business Podcast, in which Rodger Armstrong and The Athletic’s Matt Slater examine the news broken by Matt of material changes in MSP’s investment into Everton and the stadium development company.
We explore the new offer, why the offer of investment (for equity) was rejected by Everton’s principal lender was rejected - what that means for the football club and the stadium development.
We look at what needs to change at Everton, who needs to lead that change, and critically the relevance of the stadium development not only to the football club, but to the City of Liverpool and the economy of North West England. Our owners, our directors and management have huge responsibilities to fulfil, way beyond that of maintaining Premier League status and perhaps a trophy winning team in the future.
The immediate priority though is securing the club’s financial future and ensuring its ability to meet its future obligations to all stakeholders.
Thanks to Matt and Rodger and to you the listeners!
