If you believe the Kenwright lovers he's just this true blue who isn't. Except he's expecting to make a 1000% profit on his investment.

So, apparently the board want 200 million for the club. Villa, with their presumably superb stadium (not my words) would cost 150 million. Which one sounds more appealing? Not a bad return as TBH paid 20 million for the club when they bought it off Johnson. Maybe it's time for people to realise Kenwright is in it for the money, just like the rest of the board?

And Moyes inherited a regular Premier League winner. If we look at just that then we can conclude Moyes is a shite manager and a charlatan?

We actually replaced Fellaini with McCarthy. Lukaku came on loan. Lukaku's buy also required selling Jelavic and Anichebe. The rest of your message is just ranting.

First off all, of course you have to factor net spent. If a team sells their star player to Real Madrid for 100 million and then buy players for 50, will you say the manager spent 50 million and not take the 100 million into account? And if you remember, Johnson initially gave Smith transfer money, something Kenwright has never done.

First of all, Martinez did not get that money either. He sold Fellaini (was forced to), Jelavic and Anichebe to generate funds. But more importantly what does that have to do with how bad the football is? Did it make things less bad under Smith? He was, after all, initially given a (then) huge transfer kitty when he bought players like Dacourt, Materazzi and Collins. Seriously, your mates think Smith's seven or eight defenders was better?

Wow, so it was more entertaining during Smith's time when we had seven or eight defenders on the pitch? Or when the starting lineup looked like Simonsen; Pistone, Stubbs, Weir, Unsworth, Clarke; Gascoigne, Gemmill (76' Blomqvist), Linderoth (46' Alexandersson); Radzinski, Moore (46' Chadwick). (That was the last game Smith was in charge.)

King's Dock was our best chance of getting into the gravy train but because Kenwright didn't want to give up on his trainset that never happened.

So what did you mean with your message?

What should they do that they could do and that would be within the law? There is no real reason to deny Everton a new stadium or make it harder to build. It would directly mean more money to the local economy (which city wouldn't like a 100-200 million cash injection to their economy?). So even if they were all kopites (and Anderson is known to support Everton) it still wouldn't make sense.

Best reason to sign Cleverly would see a lot of people eating humble pie (again).

10 million sounds ridiculous considering some other choices around the same price (N'Kolou 11 million, for instance).

On a loan? Why not. Doesn't need to play every game. Has been very good in Portugal (you would all be drooling already if he hadn't already played in the PL) and has a decent scoring & assists record. 25 goals and over 50 assists in about 150 PL games isn't too bad. Far more effective than Deulofeu.

Badum tish!

I didn't say he doesn't excite me, I said he didn't impress me (yet). He still looks like someone who should play in the reserves, there is a big step-up to the first team. Nothing is impossible, but he needs to toughen up a lot and improve his decision-making to be of use in the Premier League.

People are definitely going overboard. Garbutt looks promising but so did players like Cadamarteri, Branch etc. Garbutt might become really good but it's far from certain at this point.

I watched a video of Henen's season and wasn't overly impressed. There's lots of promise but also a lot to learn. Didn't look ready for first team on that video. Ah, found the video:

Probably can't afford everything so has decided to prioritize.

Baines has been injured for the past 18 months and has basically played through the pain. That's why he has his op.

Executioner's Bong once again with a good piece, this time regarding summer transfers. https://theexecutionersbong.wordpress.com/2015/05/13/here-comes-the-sun/

Ok, as I said it's impossible to know what players are thinking. That Defrel guy also fits the bill. No idea if he's any good, but he'll be a lot cheaper than Ings or Austin.

A great article: http://lowergwladyslad.com/existence/

Corporate hospitality is the thing that can be fixed with redevelopment, and so are obstructed views. They are obstructed because construction techniques were not as good back then as they are now. The school in particular should be available for expansion. Here's a look at what the plan looked like: http://toffeeweb.com/club/goodison/gfe/ Ward McHughes Associates are no mugs when it comes to stadium development.

Nope, but are you seriously saying that's the reason? GP can be redeveloped, a very competent stadium architect has done the plans.

The problem with providing options is that we have no idea if players are available or willing to come. But I'll mention two possibilities: Pierre-Anton Gignac. His contract is running up. Antony Martial.
