He is showing in the team!! http://www.evertonfc.com/match/report/0910/everton-res-v-man-utd-res.html?t=4

Although Im from South West and Live in Sussex - Im still a blue through and through in spirit! I was born on 28th Oct 1978 - The day Andy King scored the winner against the Red Shite...100 years from when we were formed - Coincidence! started supporting them from the 1986 cup final as I prefered the Blue kit to the Red and Gary Lineker was my hero at the time, before Mexico '86....Ah, to be 7 again! Haha! Funny as

He is cocky, arrogant and does not fit into the Everton team ethic. Unless he can become more of a team player, is willing to play where and whenever WE need him and accept a substantial wage loss. I wouldnt want him near GP. Heard Barmby wants to return...Lol

Totally agree. Tries hard, plays well, chases back and cares about the team/fans. Even scored! One bright spark in a crap week for EFC

Exactly. Short sightedness and nostalgic feeling may cost us being a big club again...Lets just stay at Goodison and gradually perform at a level that our finances and turnover allow....Hope people are happy to be a mid table club, but at least we are still at Goodison!

As usual..The one logical decision that can help us and our club in the long term pushes us back again. Is it surprising really? As for the people who didnt want the move out of the city boundaries...Well you have your wish, but its the long term progression of our club that suffers. We will either give up on this and back to square one again or do this but be even more behind schedule. Transfers and investment will suffer and again we will be the subject of negative publicity whilst the red shite swan through there new ground and sign quality players. Can we get some good news at any point this pre-season as since the end of last Its been bad news, shit results and losing players. I dont post much and sorry to be a bit negative but as a supporter who loves there club it hurts, but like any real SUPPORTER Ill back them no matter what As usual its all smiles being a blue. WCT

I sincerely hope he doesnt go but the reality of the situation with him staying whilst squad travel to US says it all, the writing is on the wall...Unfortuantely we are going to be another good player down and no-one to replace him. Yea 10.5 million is good money....but whats the point in money if your not gonna spend it?? Top ten is looking best bet at moment... <_<

Good comment Gwlad. We need to cement 5th place now. A good performance against a Derby side relegated is what we need. We have a good side when we have the best players available, but when we are short coz of injuries etc we are like a lot of teams...AV, Man City etc. Its when we have the best TEAM available that we can compete...Our squad is not strong enough to back up and compete with the top four. Lets back the blues to a top five position. After all its only one place below the red shite who spent £21 million on one player than we spent on our recruitments and without him they could well be in 6,7,8th position etc. Unlucky Blues but we learn every season and can be stronger and wiser with a bit more investment and experience in europe ready for all fronts next yr. I WILL make Goodison as well next season! (Seen them three times away this yr before I get criticised!) WCT

Deffo. But apparently according to SSN, Torres is going for a scan to check on ribs and ankle.....Could be promising. ALthough if we get a draw, the week afters fixtures suit us, as we have Derby at home and they have Arsenal away - Would put the pressure on.....

Im Sure Faddy will still get one...Just he hasnt got an excuse to wear it anymore!

If this is true, why are we not getting nowhere near as much as the Yids? They cant be that much more marketable surely?

Calvin Harris, 40 Yrs of Radio 1 album, Foo Fighters......All quality

Looks like we may not have to face Torres after all.......Evens it up with us having AJ out I suppose! http://www.skysports.com/story/0,19528,11966_2798000,00.html

Looks very good. Cracking touch and awareness. Nice lay offs and one touches. Lets hope he can progress over the next few yrs...And stay at GP!

I did say we had 45 mins to change it around! It was always in the bag!!!! <_<
