New. Giacomo Angelini may be the new owner of Standard de Liège but his ‘takeover’ was funded entirely by A-CAP. How is this possible, and what does it mean for the Pro League club? By @pbsportswriter.bsky.social and @philippeauclair.bsky.social josimarfootball.com/2025/09/03/s...

Two warring Russian oligarchs, and a mystery which takes us from London to Cyprus, Miami, and Georgia via private investigators, saunas and strip clubs, involving a trio of litigation funders including… 777 Partners. For Byline Times with Will Neal bylinetimes.com/2025/07/30/m...

Stanley Cup finals - & in fact NHL playoffs in general - have been the best sport on TV all year. And there are Finns everywhere! 🇫🇮🏒🥅

Looking forward to getting stuck into this 💙

Can’t think of a better manager than Moyes to guide Everton through their stadium move. His experience at West Ham has taught him a lot. www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/footba...

New. 777 Partners still exists, though their website has gone dark and a former employee has testified under oath accusing them of “stealing” 350 million dollars. By @philippeauclair.bsky.social and @pbsportswriter.bsky.social josimarfootball.com/2025/05/02/u...

Remember 777 Partners? This is where the former owners of Standard, Genoa, Vasco, Red Star and Hertha (and near-owners of Everton FC) are now - in a twilight zone of their own making. By @pbsportswriter.bsky.social and myself for @josimarfootball.bsky.social. josimarfootball.com/2025/05/02/u...

New for @josimarfootball.bsky.social by @pbsportswriter.bsky.social and I: the former 777 Partners football empire, now controlled by their creditor A-CAP, who are in serious trouble as well, is crumbling into dust. But what of the clubs they own? josimarfootball.com/2025/04/01/c...

New. A criminal investigation has opened at Genoa, and the future of all the clubs in the crumbling 777 Partners empire could soon be in the hands of US regulators. By @philippeauclair.bsky.social @pbsportswriter.bsky.social josimarfootball.com/2025/04/01/c...

New. The demise of 777 Partners is threatening to affect thousands of insurance policyholders in the USA whose money ended up funding the company’s bets on debt-ridden, loss-making football clubs. By @pbsportswriter.bsky.social @philippeauclair.bsky.social josimarfootball.com/2025/03/12/d...

Latest on 777/A-CAP: - Ex 777 employee sues company for costs incurred after being “required to participate” in DOJ/SEC probes - A-CAP faces a big month in May after losing control of Genoa & Vasco, & walking away from Melbourne.

A minutes silence for young footballer Poppy Atkinson who passed away after a car entered a football pitch in Kendal on Wednesday Everton, it would be great to hear a message of support for Poppy’s family at this time 💙 @women.evertonfc.com @evertonfc.com #efc www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

A nice read on Everton’s new stadium, and what else it could be used for www.iq-mag.net/2025/02/insi...

#Finland will play these lines at the #4Nations? Lehkonen - Barkov - Rantanen Hintz - Aho - Laine Teravainen - Haula - Armia Granlund - Lundell - Luostarinen What do we think? Spreading the talent? #Suomi #NHL #Leijonat

New. Fifa has been laundering its reputation through partnerships with UN bodies. WHO and UNHCR are declining to disclose the amount they are receiving from the fund meant to provide remedies to migrant workers. By @samindrakunti.bsky.social josimarfootball.com/2025/02/12/b...

Does Jordan Pickford wind you up? Was speaking to a colleague today who is convinced the Everton keeper wastes more time than any other player. Wrote on this after the Brighton game - not sure what else he was supposed to do in that one? 👀 #EFC

Wolves know who he is. Wolves' sponsor knows who he is. Yet they won't say who the mystery man who was allowed to sit next to the future Prime Minister at Molineux is. Zero scrutiny, zero accountability, zero f... given. English football and its betting patrons, 2025.

Joachim Andersen felt like a big loss to Crystal Palace but his replacement, Maxence Lacroix, might be a low-key contender for signing of the season. One of the quickest players in the league and statistically the best one-v-one defender. Piece here on his impact www.skysports.com/football/new...

David Weir: “Goodison will always be special to me. When it’s at its best there’s nowhere better to play. It has a unique family feel with a lot of history and warmth.” Says he’ll be sad when it closes “but it’s going to be an exciting new dawn for Everton with the new stadium.”

Journey down to Brighton with the Stones, Jimmy Cliff, Steve Earle, John Coltrane and the Foo Fighters on the playlist. Makes crawling through all those average speed traps bearable 👍

This is good from Moyes. Has tweaked line-up, system, instructions & got deserved reward. Has made Everton’s build up play much less predictable and got them looking much more dangerous. Whatever happens from here, that’s promising. Rode their luck at times but deserved it for being so proactive.

We (@pbsportswriter.bsky.social and I) wrote in the latest instalment of the 777 Partners saga for @josimarfootball.bsky.social that 777's creditor A-CAP would try to get the "sale" of Genoa CFC to Romanian millionaire Dan Şucu annulled. Lawsuit has now been filed. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Everton the only club in trouble that Moyes would consider taking on right now I think. Has always fancied returning. TFG have probably ended up with the safest pair of hands available. Can lay foundations. Suspect they also now know what they want to do re CEO/DoF.

With extra thanks for the additional reporting of the brilliant @emishor.bsky.social

New. How did A-CAP lose control over Genoa and who actually owns the club now? Romanian Dan Şucu’s takeover faces a legal challenge, but is he only a front to hide the real owners? By @philippeauclair.bsky.social and @pbsportswriter.bsky.social josimarfootball.com/2025/01/08/t...

A secondary effect of this nonsense is that by going to war with the Labour Party, this 🤡 could now claim that any efforts to regulate social media or to clamp down on mis/disinformation is a political attack on an opponent. Hopefully govt ignores such nonsense and tries to clean sewer.
