‘There were allowable adjustments that brought them back further and they put in every single opportunity, and it was their calculations, it was Everton’s calculations, Everton advanced their own case and Everton’s own calculations brought them £20m over, not the Premier League’s calculations.’And whilst the fan then retorted, arguing that Forest were given allowances for cooperation despite Everton having done the same, Jordan simply noted: ‘No, that’s not right’. Finance expert Stefan Borson then took over from there to explain further. Although both Jordan and Borson were both rather dismissive of the fans’ claim, on the surface it is understandable where he came to such a conclusion. After all, whilst they did still spend in an effort to remain competitive after a gruelling relegation battle, it was only done so due to the £60m sale of Richarlison that summer. When combing back through the transfer records, the Toffees are actually one of just two sides to have posted a profit in all of their last three seasons, having offloaded the Brazilian, Anthony Gordon and Alex Iwobi during that period.
