  1. I'd have taken top 8 at the start of the season but our expectations have been heightened since then. I'd still be happy with 6th as a great season and ecstatic with anything higher.
  2. http://www.bbc.com/sport/0/football/24464349 Another flattering BBC article on Ross. I think we all know how good Ross can become and I'm sure every Evertonian hopes that he can achieve his potential and be even better than he already is. I just wish that the media would stop going overboard about him being the next England saviour. There is a lot of pressure on him and he needs to be allowed to improve and fulfil his potential to the best of his ability, hopefully at Everton. We know how the media can turn, build them up to knock them down, so come on, give the kid a bit of breathing space and not put too much pressure on his shoulders already.
  3. I've lost count of the number of Man U fans complaining to me about Moyes defensive substitutions trying to protect a lead. They expect to be going on and killing teams off. Made me smile 'RM is unpredictable and I love it' - come on admit it, nobody else would have thought of putting Gerard on for Bainesy - it just shows a really refreshing mindset and approach to trying to win games. Maybe a result of some of the frustrations of the Palace game, but proves he is prepared to gamble in an effort to win games. To be applauded.
  4. I suspect that its more to do with our new Communications Director, Alan Myers, having his finger on the media pulse a bit better than previous incumbents. Notice how Roberto is getting air time on TV and things like Everton in the Community getting plenty of media coverage, including from the PM. It's all part of having a coherent comms strategy that seems to be being implemented successfully. Which after all, is about time and very welcome cos we have been pretty good at giving it both barrels in our own feet from time to time.
  5. In fairness, we'd probably complain that the media were being patronising if they so gushing about Everton. It's clear though that Southampton are a smaller club than Everton in just about every measure so it really is a great achievement for them.
  6. It's easier to criticise than have an opinion of your own I thought McCarthy did OK but could have been more influential if he hadn't got himself booked first half. Would have to be one of the centre halves or GK for keeping us in it first half.
  7. Another supposed 'pundit' who likes the sound of their own voice but knows nothing about football
  8. Do you mean loighten up? I couldn't make it out!
  9. I heard we're paying 30 quid a week and all the toffee mints he can eat. All happy now?
  10. He can sign a pre-contract in January can't he? If I was him I'd give it a few months under Martinez and if it wasn't working out, pick up a nice fat signing on fee somewhere else. No doubt if that's the case we'll be desperately trying to get a fee from anyone in January.
  11. Billy Reid obviously can't count - he doesn't think Everton are a top 6 club???
  12. Fair play, Roberto said we'd be stronger at the end if the window and we are and overall 10m quid up. Can't argue with that too much. I think Lukaku will get lots of game time as well
  13. 1,2 1,2,3 1,2,3,4 5 nil :jump for joy:
  14. How do you work that out? How many places at £1m per place in the EPL will Bainsey get us? Even with him and Felli we aren't going to get into Champs League next year so you can't anticipate that we'll be earning big money on the back of just him over the next couple of seasons?
