Everton FC's chief executive accused Liverpool Council of sending two 'menacing letters' requesting payment of hundreds of thousands of pounds.
The council spent £841,000 on fees after it agreed to help fund Everton FC's Bramley Moore stadium on the waterfront. Everton later sought alternative sources of funding and did not accept the proposed investment.
In May Everton agreed to pay £502,000 of the £841,000 incurred by Liverpool Council. In a joint statement, it was said that an “amicable settlement” had been reached regarding the Bramley Moore project.
