I have big Everton fear if takeover does not happen - my old club was ruined by financial mismanagement

I have huge fears over Everton future

At one of my old clubs Rangers it was left for the fans to pick up the pieces after they were crippled by financial problems.

Nobody ever would have dreamed that Rangers would get relegated three divisions for the accounts and tax errors.

They had to go to court and they ended up winning the court case, but it was too late. The damage is done and you're already relegated.

Because of that experience and what can happen in football, I am worried about Everton. It's not just getting a points deduction, it could get worse.

There are lot of levels the club could plummet and I've seen it with my own eyes - a huge football club losing players, losing staff, losing their identity and having to start again. And they were only able to do that because of the fanbase, who dragged them back up again.

Rangers' owner had no accountability either, it was all left to the supporters. And that's what I could see happening with Everton if the takeover doesn't happen, the longest takeover saga in history.

The Premier League are still waiting for answers from 777. If you want to buy a club then you should give them everything they need and more - give them too much information!

If you were Moshiri you would be on the phone, saying 'jump through every hoop and hurdle'. But it's just dragging on. It's April and we still don't know who owns the club and now it's starting to run onto the field.

If it drags on, while we're in a very dark place now it could potentially get worse.
