 Hello, welcome to the Everton News Daily powered by the sofa score app, which is free, so go on download it now, why wouldn't you, why wouldn't you. Sean Dytelt is pre-match press conference last night after Everton's 1-1 draw with Newcastle United at St James's Park. Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late penalty in and the trophy is a hard four point. This is what the manager had to say about the game. I think the second half particularly. I wasn't over-questioning the first half. I thought we were part of a soft goal, a good goal from that point of view, a soft goal from our point of view. I thought it was a pretty decent performance, but at halftime I mentioned about that edge and how we turned that into a winning performance. I thought the second half was a very valid attempt to do that. We didn't get the win, but we get a good point on the road in the Premier League is always important. We've only had one this season, should have had another one Saturday, didn't get that, and I don't know why they have to look at that 100 times. I'm absolutely bizarre, I think, because I've seen it back and it's like it gets given straight away, but anyways, they did get to the right decision, so we pleased that and Don put it away, so I'm pleased with him as well. Yeah, it wasn't a pre-match, but I don't know what I was talking about. It was post-match press conference after the draw, of course, so I apologise for that. I'll just mention, Dominic Calvert-Lewin scored for the first time in five months. It was a high pressure penalty, really. He stuck it away to the relief of all of us. This is what Siorn Dydig thought about whether it will help him relax now and maybe get amongst the goals for the rest of the season. This is what the manager had to say. Yeah, I mean, you know yourself, there might be a pure goal, but sometimes it starts off with a penalty. It could be one that just hits you and goes in. He's had a couple of them that were taken away from him, more or less in the old money, they would have just said it was his goal, but yeah, I mean, it changes the noise around him. He's been working hard better. I thought it worked hard as well. We're asking a lot of them to at the moment, but I thought they did and it deserves the fact that he's keeping at it, but it must have been a nervous penalty for him as well, but like you say, there's a lot of noise about, you know, having scored, you haven't done this, you haven't done that, but I thought he delivered it well. Yeah, let's hope it inspires Dom to get amongst the goals. We need, we need some goals from him and better when he's final eight games. We need to get some victories under our belt start with Burnley at the weekend. Another reason why I haven't got a point last night was the performance of England goalkeeper Jordan Pickford at the good game last night responded well to Saturdays. When I didn't think he had a great game against Bournemouth, he was much, much better last night. It might have been all of those inflatable dinosaurs that Newcastle fans like to carry around with them. There you go. This is what the man had to thought about England number one's performance. Yeah, I mean, he got quite a healthy reception, I thought, so it's good for him. You know, it's good and I thought he handled it well and I thought his decision making was good and a couple of really good saves, even though he's a top keeper, they're still decent saves. Everton's fan advisory board have received a response from the Premier League to the letter they sent last week. The letter is based around Everton's proposed acquisition of control by triple seven partners. The summary of the letter highlighted that if an individual or company that wishes to purchase a club is subject to a disqualifying event, they will be rejected. However, if the board is not satisfied with the source and sufficiency of funding behind the purchaser, the purchaser has the opportunity to address the concern. The rules provide no deadline for the letter. In practice, of course, it remains open to the incumbent owner to move on, to seek rather alternative investment elsewhere. And further from that, I.S. Sports have reported yesterday triple seven's takeover of Everton is imminent. I mean, I'll be honest, that letter's gone from the Premier League to the fab. It clarifies and confirms that the Premier League can reject takeover bids, which is what certainly what this channel has said for some time. And the fact that triple seven haven't been rejected makes me think that and believe that that they will be taken over at Everton Football Club at I.S. Sports report and it's imminent. It's been imminent for weeks, hasn't it? I think we all just want a finalisation of this. We need a line in the sand, whether that be triple seven now own us or whether that be far of Meshiri or whoever has moved on to new parties as we need that line in the sand. We need a place called start, as Mr Blaine would say, because right now everything does feel in a state of limbo. It's not good. It's not good for us as fans. It's not good for the football club. It's not good for the team. And we need it and let's hope we get that clarity very soon. I'm sure we'll also hear in the next few days or certainly the next week what our punishment is for the second PSR charge as well. We just need to get these uncertainties out of the way and hopefully start winning some games beginning with Burnley at home at the weekend. That is it for the news day. Give the video a thumbs up.
