Everton are facing a massive fans backlash, after a day of frustration, anger and eventual disappointment as the transfer window closed without a signing.
Fans arrived late at the club’s Finch Farm training ground late in the evening as the deadline was looming, to hang banners over the main gates, protesting at the regime of owner Farhad Moshiri.
The billionaire businessman had promised supporters “Everton would get the striker they need” before the deadline at 11pm on Tuesday evening, but despite pursuing more than half a dozen targets, the Blues failed to complete a deal.
