CaptainFerguson10 Posted August 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Think is, we all have been doing that since July 1st! Like I said, I don not believe Everton will sign anyone soon as they can't do in 48 hours what they haven't done in two months! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiemaher85 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 That was just a joke, I don't believe we will sign anyone soon. I was just commennting on what BK said last summer when he was asked about Moutinho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 The or so suggests it could be longer than 48 hours, so wait until the end of tomorrow and then moan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adpom Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 Moyes said on friday we hope to get lads in within 48 hours, however the 48 hours i think he was refering to are Monday an Tuesday, as sat an sun are more match day then transfer days. So come tuesday n8 an there not in i be worried. i got a felling ,we have at LEAST 1 new player tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philinsuffolk Posted August 16, 2009 Report Share Posted August 16, 2009 I happen to believe there will be signings this week. No, I don't know anything, I just happen to trust what Moyes says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troy8 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 TBH do you think many people would want to sign for Everton 48 hours after getting absolutely humiliated? Give it another week for a "cool down" period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1982 Posted August 17, 2009 Report Share Posted August 17, 2009 Isn't there a deadline at 11 tonight for players to be signed to play in euorpa qualifiers - sure I've read it somewhere? If this was the case then there may still be some action tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adpom Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 my hopes of signing anyone seem to be faiding each an every day, i wake up an think right, we will get someone today, an everyday it just doesn't happen, not only that but the rumours in the papers seem to be getting less an less everyday. Not to mention deals like Senderos an Elm have gone cold. Was hoping for 2 or 3 new faces to give the squad a boost before thursday, but i'm starting to worry that it will be simlar to saturday day. An another year we get kicked out of euro by a team that isn't as good as us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hafnia Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 being an Everton fan ain't easy, it's one thing wondering how far we could go if we had a few pound more to support the manager with - especially when we get 5th spot and a place in the final. However it's another thing when we have to wonder what bargain basement player we hope can emerge as a player who can take us forward. We have gone as far as possible by shopping in the lower leagues, we need proven players or players who can change games in an instant. Never has that been proven more than against Arsenal, a free flowing instinctive footballing team who took our 'disciplined' players apart at will. There is something going on that isn't right, whether it is getting kirby approved before selling or whether we don't want to pay the going rate, the fans are being insulted by lies and false promises. From being told our transfer targets are exciting to we should see signings in the next 48 hours, something is seriously wrong and the fans are kept in the dark.

I sincerely hope so, and I hope we go out of the Carling Cup at the first attempt as well because we clearly havent got a squad strong enough to compete in 3 or 4 competitions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair we have never been told that.

Lowensda Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 48 hours from when exactly? we are so bad at getting targets. Bassong took 2 days to complete from interest, and look how he's doing at WHL. So the whole process cant take as long as Everton make out surely?

Warlock Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 A lot of how long it takes though is probably down to agreeing personal terms with the player and getting medicals done. If its only a drive around the country then its obviously going to be quicker than if the player has to fly in and that. Although, we do need some quality signings soon or this will be a long hard season for us, especially if we lose a few more players to injury...

MikeO Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 Bassong took 2 days to complete from interest... How do you know that exactly? Bassong took two days from when you were aware of the interest maybe. Fellaini took sixteen and a half hours last year from when the interest was reported on here.....but that doesn't mean DM woke up in the morning and decided he'd get Liege on the phone .

CaptainFerguson10 Posted August 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 96 hours after Moyes made those comments, again the fans are left broken hearted by broken promises. It absolutely stinks the contempt the club has for us, if only we could stay away from Goodison then the drop in revenue would force the club to stop taking the piss.

marcopaulo Posted August 18, 2009 Report Share Posted August 18, 2009 i cant agree with wanting to go out of a cup i know we havent got a strong squad but id never ever want us to lose at all. we cant progress if we are dropping out of cups all the time. id rather win the europa and finish bottom half to be honest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By Moyseies own admission we have 13 to 14 decent players and that is it and we certainly cant progress if we go back to fighting for survival Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
