    Happy to share mate. If you go to Evertons YouTube channel, they have a 2 min highlights the next day and then the 10 mins highlights the day after that.

    Eldest son and grandson are visiting tomorrow.  They are calling on their way to the match at Brighton, both being season ticket holders at Goodison in spite of living in Nottingham.  Haven't seen grandson for over a year so looking forward to it. He always phone's me to give me a run-down on the Everton games.  He's now 6ft 7 inches tall and weighs 15 stone so I'll have to get used to calling him 'sir'!

    I thought it was rather ironic the other day as I was stood there in my mask drawing a rather large amount of money in the bank.

    Can’t you persuade your wife to administer bed Bath’s John I’m sure that would be much safer and more enjoyable😉

    Glad it's only a few bruises mate, I know I've heard of much worse from friends.

    johnh got a reaction from Vranny in Denis Law   
    Sadly, Denis Law is the latest footballer to be stricken by dementia.
    I remember back in 1958, I was 22 and was introduced to Denis Law by Bill Shankly.  Denis Law was 17.  The introduction went as follows:  Bill Shankly 'let me introduce you to a future Scottish international'.  I shook hands with Bill Shankly then shook hands with the young blond lad stood next to him (who looked about 15).  The name 'Denis Law' that followed didn't mean anything to me at the time.  Bill Shankly was manager of Huddersfield Town and Denis Law was playing for Huddersfield.

    Thanks Palfy.  That all happened after a match against a Huddersfield Town eleven. First time I had ever played under floodlights. The team I played for was a representative team but I can't remember which team it was.  I think it was either: West Riding County or Leeds & District FA.  I remember that we lost but can't remember the score. I was appointed captain, though only because I was centre-half and they always made the centre-half captain in representative matches.  After the game and shower, I went into a large room where a buffet was laid on.  I saw one of our officials talking to Bill Shankly and when he spotted me he called me over and introduced me as 'our captain'.
    I have been very fortunate with my many special moments.

    It doesn't look good does it.
    Can someone nip up to FF and see if he turns up for training tomorrow.
    If it's true he can always use the Prince Andrew defence that he's never broken into a sweat before.  He's got 38,000 witnesses.

    I agree.  Why did he bring two subs on with only a minute of extra time to play?  Why did he allow two young lads, who had hardly touched the ball, to take crucial penalties?  Why does he allow Kane to play as an attacking midfielder instead of a striker?  His management of subs throughout the competition has been poor.
    One paper referred to his 'calmness' on the touchline.  There have been many managers in history whose 'calmness' turned out to be 'clueless'.
