Blue 250

In the papers a couple of days ago was a story about Dave Thomas (Everton winger of the 70's).He looked pretty fit, problem is he's slowly going blind.He was pictured with his guide dog, infact the story was to raise awareness of his condition and the need for guide dogs.

Interestingly mentioned that at every medical he had during his football days eyesight was never something checked.( guess this must be the same for the refs !).

The article got me thinking back to the 70's and Dave of moulded studs and socks rolled down fame, flying down the touchline, sticking the ball directly onto Latchfords head.

There's recent talk about Gerry being a great crosser of the ball, but I don't think I'v ever seen a better crosser than Dave Thomas.

Middlesbrough 1 Everton 2.

Lukaku.

Lukaku is Everton to you - I've said that since day 1 which is why my criticism of him had turned you into some sort of forum pest with an unhealthy need to troll someone with an unhealthy passion.

 

I can be subjective about him - some may so overly critical but none the less I'm able to factually state what I do and don't like with tangible examples.

 

To me Everton is Everton... there is no player bigger than the club. It is an institution. Evertonians don't need that explaining to them.... then again Evertonians do not bet on Liverpool beating them in the Derby- the thought of collecting money for enduring such a thing is almost betrayal.

 

You keep supporting lukaku. I'll support Everton.

Oh dear Billy, wrattled you a bit !

You're only subjective about him know because he's made you look a twat, wipe the egg off your face and get ovet it.Just waiting for him to make a mistake so you can jump on him is embaracing, grow up.

At the moment any story about Everton just about always revolves around Lukaku and just about everyone on here wants a team built around him.Evertonians want him to stay......you'd rather he left I'll say no more.

I thought you were a Wigan fan !

Shall we start the who's been to the most Everton games before Lukaku was at Everton ? you'd lose.

Tell us again, what sort of game did Lukaku have against Stoke

And oh dear, the ' he bet against Everton ' line, grow up you idiot, faries don't die when you bet against your own team, you just make money..........so you can go and watch more Everton games, oh but you don't do you!

Did someone alter my settings to take blue off ignore just to so I could see the post "everton is lukaku".

Read it and weep Billy !

There is no bigger name at Everton than Lukaku, you might have wanted him shipped out for a loss because you couldn't see his quality, and you've waisted years slagging him off, but when I talk Everton to any football fan at the moment.........it's Lukaku they are interested in and maybee the manager, but mainly Lukaku.

Seems most on here want to build a team around..........LUKAKU !

Someone quote this so Billy can take a squint.Should be worth another 2,000 posts about how Lukaku turned a corner because he took his (Billys) advice.

Oh, let's save him some time, YES, we know Lukaku didn't have a great game at Stoke......funny thing is I don't recall too many other Blues pulling up any trees that night, but hey let's just slag Luakau........our £80MILLION beast.

Not looking forward to the day an £80million bid comes in, at the moment Everton is 'Lukaku'.......not Baines, Coleman, Barkley etc, whilst they 'are' good players, it's kind of all about Lukaku.Would be brilliant to build around him, but ask yourself, why wouldn't a mega rich team see £80million for a 23 year old who will improve as a bargin.

We will have to show huge ambition to keep this lad, maybe we can do it.Signing a new contract doesn't mean he will stay, we need to remember that.

There has been some Bullshit written about him, but most could see what he was capable of, well done Rom, you've got the football world looking at Everton, your scoring loads of goals..........and if you did leave us will make us loads of money.

I think United are already a little bit worried and so are the redshite.

We've still got to play the rs, could be the game that makes all the difference.

Just tried to buy Ed Sheeran tickets for me and the missus, sold out everywhere, but what really grinds my gears is people buying more than they need to sell on at stupid prices.

Afraid my wife's niece used to do this, buy tickets for any event then sell them on, pissed me off.She was certianly one to spot an opportunity, during the Wimbledon tennis tournament she used to vacate her house and rent it out to the players, had some big names stay and made some good money.Her husband was related to a 'player' wife danced with him before a big match, trod on his foot......and he lost the game, I always blamed her for that !

Back to 'ticket touts', should be stopped.

Romelu Lukaku has now scored 15+ goals across all competitions in 7 of his 8 full seasons as a professional.

 

Still only 23-years-old.

Yep, he's rubbish.

Great cross from Rom, is there anything he can't do !!

Another great goal, Lukaku unplayable!

 

Niasse scored against Liverpool too!

Happy days.

Everton 3 Bournemouth 0.

Lukaku.

Noticed that piece of music was composed in 1878.........that was two good things that came from that year then.

Very good, my radio is usually fixed on classic fm.

Are you the artist as well, spotted some paintings in the background.

Stoke 1 Everton 1.

Barkley.

Robles and Davies should hold their place in the starting line up until they let their form slip.

Man utd are losing too so thats three up. Can we catch them?

The rs lost, can we catch them.

Palace 1 Everton 3.

Lukaku.

I think the point is though that he continued to try to claim it afterwards...he must know he didn't touch it. Yes, fair enough, go for it...but not so cool trying to claim it when you ain't touched it!

I played striker, and I'd do just the same just to wind up a team mate, tell them I got the last touch right up till the end, then come clean......I'd say he was joking.

Who cares who scores them..........WE WON 4-0 !!!!

He's looking part of the team, don't drop him till he has a bad game, simple.

I just noticed Haf mentioned everyone BUT Lukaku so ghought I would set the record straight :

Come on, he has made up for it by mentioning Lukaku 210 times for trying to steal Davies goal from him.

Can't remember which pundit it was who said a good forward will always try and get the last touch.There could have been a City defender just behind him to clear it off the line, then he would have been slated for not having a killer instinct.

Looked like a championship player today. Commentators were tearing him in half at halftime and full time. Glad we sold

Seems like a good days business.

Looks like one of the ball boys.

Hope he's allowed to stay up late and watch MOTD.

He could come here. Many of our fans are fine with that.

Great victory today, and still the prick tries to stick the knife in Lukaku.

Obviously hate has no boundries.

Davies, good game, great finish.

Great run for the goal, ont only that, he was knocked on his arse and he still got up and chipped it over the GK.

Great result, all these young lads coming through will help Ross.
