Why is one used to justify spending money on players and the other isn't? I'm not sure anyone is saying Everton are a financial rival - merely that they have spent a large amount of money on players. Surely the source of the money is irrelevant to the outlay? |

I can’t believe this is really being argued tbh. It’s like suggesting someone who sells half their belongings and their car to buy a new car, is enjoying the same lifestyle as someone who can afford to just add that car to their collection without batting an eyelid. They both bought the car, so money is money. Southampton will probably drop £75m on players this summer. We can complain if it doesn’t get compared to us etc |

They both spent the same on a car. How they funded the purchase is completely irrelevant to them buying the car when the issue raised is how much they spent buying a car. When you're talking about how they funded the purchase of the car you're talking about something else. |

Not sure how you can’t be with siders on this one
Everton have sold their best players to buy new players. We generally don’t need to do that so we don’t need to weaken the team to strengthen it again. What sparky is implying by saying that it’s still money spent on the team is utterly ludicrous |

What period does net spend encompass? A year? Financial year? A transfer window? Does it include wages? Bonuses? Signing on fees? Image rights? Tax breaks? Conditional payments based on performance? Payments staggered over the length of a contract? Aren't they just as - if not more relevant? It's absolute %@#$&!s made up by some lunatic on RAWK to justify why they haven't won the league for 30 years. |
