A small gobshite of Liverpool fans are Scouse not English. Everton fans, broadly, don't engage in that bullshit posturing.

Sorry, meant 'Evertonian not English'
Scouse or English? - GrandOldTeam
My first memory of supporting England was the European Championships of 1996. Gary Neville would later remark that though he didn’t know it then, this was as good as it got for a young player playing for England. For me as a young fan, this was very much the Everest of my experience of watching...

How can you have the excuse of double jeopardy? Which presumably means that the cycle runs for three years, then you have to wait for another three years before PSR takes effect again.

This chap seems to have been the main culprit:
Captain Sinister
Senior doom Monger
Is he:
A) Everton's new owner;
B) The EPL's new owner
C) Someone not quite so blatantly corrupt?
One might argue that, as no oligarch gets their fingers into anything in Russia without his tacit approval, and that therefore anything invested by any oligarch allegedly has a piece that sticks to his fingers, that this gentleman was perhaps indirectly already involved in the ownership of Everton, much as he was indirectly with Chelsea‘s previous ownership, again allegedly.

Nothing at all dodgy here, oh no, nothing to see:

What are the chances of them going into administration?

I suspect that there are people waiting in the wings for this to happen.
Nobody seems to know, to be honest.
It does seem that they are pinning their hopes on 777 Partners coming up with the cash, otherwise - as their accounts clearly state - there are „doubts about the business continuing as a going concern“ which is finance-speak for „we are desperately running out of cash, send help“.
Yeah, you would think so - it would be almost inevitable if Everton did default and go into Admin, leaving aside any points deductions, there would be no shortage of money then willing to do a quick pre-pack administration, to pick off their assets (including the playing staff, current facilities and the new stadium) at a steep discount.
It would almost be a license to print money, if the new owner(s) could get them back into the Premier League.
It might be all about the timing - if the club stays up this season, and they really are financially in the shit, they might take admin and a points-deduction going in to next season, knowing that their financial problems would be cleared (at least, temporarily) and they would know what target to hit to stay up again.
But let‘s face it - Everton have been circling the drain for years, and have somehow managed to dodge relegation far too many times. The drop, painful though it might be to their fans, might actually do them good, because they have seemingly been living it large for years, without stable funding.
The reading of that article, I'd say it's imminent, especially 777 inability to raise the funds to buy the club and also some have suggested they won't meet fit and proper checks anyway. What I don't get is, who would have thought a new stadium was a good idea when clearly the clubs a financial mess? It's not like evertons footballing achievements are on the rise for them to need a bigger ground.
