Happy for him, but I hope it's not the kiss of death. We haven't had the best of luck in the past with newly capped players.

Not the best performance but a very good result against one of the teams we need to stay ahead of. Spurs dropped two points as well.

I don't believe he orchastrated the move, more likely MSI who have bought themselves an infinitely better deal. Fernandes didn't owe us anything, this deal should have been signed sealed and delivered at the start of the transfer window. Valencia paid more money, have better players and can offer Champions League football, good weather and its only a short trip from his home country. If you didnt support Everton which would you chose

Gutted if this doesn't come off

That'd set us back a couple of mil in wages though.

Another one: http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/fo...icle2862080.ece Everton in £3 million move for Owl Brunt Toffees out to beat Sanchez Tuesday, August 14, 2007 By Stuart McKinley Former Northern Ireland manager Lawrie Sanchez is facing competition from Premier League rivals Everton in the race to sign international winger Chris Brunt before the transfer deadline at the end of this month. Fulham boss Sanchez had Brunt earmarked to complete a handful of Northern Ireland players at Craven Cottage, after completing the signings of Chris Baird, Aaron Hughes, Steve Davis and David Healy over the summer. He made his move last month by tabling an offer to Sheffield Wednesday for the 22-year-old, but had that bid rejected. Although a further bid was expected, Fulham haven't returned with a better offer, leaving the door open for Everton to gatecrash the deal. Their manager David Moyes is understood to be lining up a £3million move for Brunt and although the Owls claim that they won't sell, that is a figure which is more likely to tempt the Championship outfit. Brunt had been in talks with Wednesday over a new deal, but those broke down recently and the club insist they have made their final offer. The Toffees, who face Tottenham at White Hart Lane in a Premier League clash this evening, were today expected to splash out a club record £9million on Portuguese midfielder Manuel Fernandes, who had a loan spell at Goodison Park last season. The 21-year-old Benfica player would, however, be ruled ineligible for Everton's UEFA Cup participation if he plays for his current club against FC Copenhagen in the Champions League tonight. Brunt, also interesting West Ham and West Brom, was yesterday named in Nigel Worthington's first Northern Ireland squad for next week's Euro 2008 qualifier at home to Liechtenstein. He is one player that should be fresh for that game as after playing against Ipswich Town on Saturday Brunt is now serving a three-match suspension following a sending-off in a pre-season friendly.

I have to say I'm suprised so many people have discounted this as a possibility. The Chairmanship of a football club is not so far removed from the world of politics where spin is commonly accepted as a genuine tactic. These bullshit bids are about as blatent as it gets.

I know I'm a cynic but I it seems pretty obvious Baines official transfer announcement was delayed untill the ballot papers hit the doorstep.

One thing's for sure we can't go on without investing capital into new players and Kenwright knows it. If this stadium proposal goes through it will pretty much buy him three more stagnant years of no investment during the build.

3 months out again... He should have been resting with his feet up instead of playing in that micky mouse Asia tournament.

I didn't expect anything less from the same people who coined the 'Deal of the Century' and 'no Plan B'. It doesn't say how many more years Goodison is sustainable for and why we HAVE to move right now. The main message start to finish is take what's on offer now or you will be responsible for the club's downfall.

Maybe you should take your head out the clouds and stop believing everything which is spoon fed to you through a PR machine on the official site. Funny it was actually true and stiring up suspicion is what you are doing against them. Psychologists call it projecting I think. What I want to know is why we now have another director who has been stated to have no interest in investing any money into the club, merely to offer Kenwright his support. What does he bring to the table apart from securing his good friend Bill's safety? This to go with our skint chairman who is mismanaging the club so badly any money we do get is dissapearing into an ever increasing debt or into his own pocket. Where has the TV revenue gone where we can't afford to pay more than 4m for a player before we have to start offering our own as part excahnge from our already thread bare squad.
