Keane deal is 'really sensible'
Everton fan Matt Dillon says Michael Keane's new one-year contract extension will provide "a bit of continuity" in a summer of potential change for the 32-year-old's new contract was confirmed last week and he became the third defender to agree fresh terms this summer after Seamus Coleman and Jarrad Branthwaite."I just think it's sensible," Dillon told BBC Radio Merseyside. "You look at the areas of the squad that we really need to strengthen and I don't think centre back was one of the main parts."In terms of trying to get a fourth choice centre half in - I think its going to be a hard sell for any club, let alone a team not in Europe at the moment. I just think its really sensible, we can hopefully use that money for other parts of the team."You look over his time, he's been here a long while. I'm not saying there hasn't been a few clangers along the way but he's always been good for a goal and in terms of moving forward, and the amount of players that have already left this summer, it's sensible to get him back in on a one-year deal and move forward."Keane made 14 appearances in all competitions for the Toffees last season, with David Moyes saying: "His performances at Fulham and Newcastle at the end of last season showed the value he can bring to our squad. We will need his experience and professionalism as we go forward."Dillon added: "Across his Everton career, everyone who has seen Michael Keane knows he's been a confidence player."He's the type where if you get an arm round him you hopefully get more out of him. He's one of the most experienced people in the squad so you hope you won't see as many mistakes going forward. It's a bit of continuity."Listen to the full chat on BBC Sounds

Yellow Springs' state audit lists $19K penalty; Matt Dillon blames IRS, village
Jun. 10—The Ohio Auditor of State issued a finding for recovery of nearly $20,000 Tuesday against several former Yellow Springs officials who failed to pay federal tax withholdings on time, as well as late fees and penalties. The Ohio Auditor's Office issued a finding of recovery for $19,512.40 for fiscal year 2023, the vast majority of which is attributed to former village finance director Matt Dillon. Dillon left the position in 2022. Auditors found that Dillon "failed to timely remit payroll withholdings and filings to the federal government, leading to late fees, penalties, and interest," the majority of which would have been avoided had filings been on time, auditors said. Former village manager Josue Salmeron and former finance director Amy Kemper were also implicated in the report, but on a much smaller finding: Salmeron was deemed responsible for $156.95, and Kemper for $136.13, both of which have been repaid, according to the state. Dillon and his bonding company are responsible for the remaining $19,219.32, auditors said. Reached for comment Tuesday, Dillon said he has been forthcoming with the state's independent auditors, but feels that the nearly $20,000 amount is a punitive amount to be placed on one person for a "clerical error." "I'm a public servant," he said. "I try to be a financial steward, and I take that very, very seriously." The auditor's report shows that the breakdown of the findings for recovery include: — $4,657.30 for late filing of one Federal 941 Form; — $5,002.19 for seven instances of failure to submit withholdings; — $9,520.00 for incorrect filing of one Form 1099; — $332.91 for seven instances of interest for failure to pay IRS penalties. Dillon served as Yellow Springs' finance director for only two years. He added that during that time he repeatedly sought guidance from the IRS as to how to properly complete filings, but received no response, in part due to the effects of COVID on the IRS at the time. "With some of these, like payroll withholdings, we're submitting things without feedback to a black hole," he said. Dillon further alleged that many of the tasks assigned to him in the role had more to do with Village Council's pet projects, rather than maintaining solid fundamentals of bookkeeping. "Yellow Springs is the type of town that comes up with lots of extracurricular municipal activities that are beyond the basics. Like, 'Hey, let me just do what I need to do,' which is to make sure our taxes are good." Dillon said he is looking into his options to appeal the monetary charge. Leadership for the village of Yellow Springs did not return a request for comment Tuesday.
