Meaning that the present day Everton football club began in 1892?

Yes that's about it.

The company currently called (prior to the takeover at least) Liverpool FC is the same company that used to be called Everton FC. They just changed the name in 1892.

When EFC moved across the park they didn't move the current company but setup a totally new one. Liverpool FC is just a renaming of the existing club and therefore we could, in theory, claim the league championship that Everton won in the 1890s as the company (which is the club after all) and owner is the same.

I suppose it's like the MK Dons saying that they won the 88 FA Cup. It's the same club but under a different name.

I can understand the argument but they took their players and setup with them so it should be theirs. In a legal sense, I guess we should be entitled to it.

Let's just hope we can win 19 for real soon.
