0:00.0	Hello and welcome to The Price of Football. The show that looks at the money behind the beautiful
0:15.1	game with me Kevin Day and the movie Universe is Keira McGuire, a very unprofessional way
0:20.5	to start Keira and buy me chocolate. We're recording this on a new platform now and it
0:26.9	counts us down in profits so Keira and I have to do the Thunderbirds voice. Five and the
0:33.8	thing that happened in the next half hour was that Thunderbirds? It could be stingray. I don't
0:38.0	know. It won't be half hour Keira and it will be a bit longer because it's quite a lot

1:54.2	really it's coming out here. Yes, Everton, as the tabloids will undoubtedly say, Everton could be
2:01.5	in seventh heaven shortly, Keira. Yes, but the word could is still doing quite a lot of heavy lifting.
2:11.5	The reason for this is that there's a company called 777 Partners. And we mentioned them
2:24.5	on the show on Monday with regards to Melbourne victory in which they've lent the club money
