Having owners from different countries with varying aspirations can lead to challenges in managing a football club like Everton.
Each investor may have different priorities, such as financial returns, sporting success, or community engagement, which could create conflicts of interest.
This diversity of perspectives can lead to disagreements on the strategic direction of the club, potentially causing instability and hindering progress.
In contrast, local businessmen Andy Bell and George Downing, who are lifelong Toffees fans, understand the club’s culture and values.
Their shared passion for the club could foster a more unified vision and commitment to the club’s long-term success.

Their deep connection to the community could also ensure that the club remains rooted in its local identity, which is crucial for maintaining the support of fans and the wider community.
