Some interesting stories about their ownership and finances appearing recently. There's accusations that former BHS owner Philip Green (or Sir Shifty as The Fail calls him) is really the owner of Everton, along with Usmanov who owns 30% of Arsenal. USM Holdings (Usmanov's company) has just been announced as their new training ground sponsor.

this stink and the premier league will just wash over it but how can a somebody with connections to another club be a shareholder with everton it smells
the rules in FFPR are daft and swings and roundabouts around sponsorship and private money is getting out of hand ok manchester city are also mixed up with sponsorship and private money but we have a very good footing with the fan base and assets invested in the local area and now self sufficient making good turnover and annual reports in the black. we are now whitener than white and have to be with uefa and i think the bench mark is manchester city we are the most finger pointed club in europe and have to answer every investment in the club right down to the tea bags we use
