Matching your clothes with your wife's when you already have your outfit sorted, grrr. I have my outfit sorted for a Xmas do tonight, only to just be told that it won't match my wife's outfit and I have to find something that matches. Anyone else get this dilemma, it does my head in every time...

Stephen M. Ross Everton Takeover?
Everton_Worshiper replied to flaminfox's topic in General Everton Discussion
Okay, I am going to bite. Do we have to post the same dribble on every single thread? This topic started out as a discussion about a potential takeover and soon spiralled down to the usual "Bill failed because...". Not been back long but already fed up with reading the same thing in every thread I read. (Rant Over) From limited reading on Mr Ross he seems a sport fanatic, which is always a bonus that they value sport not just as a business. The sceptical part of me doubts that this is in advanced talks though. Does anyone else feel more open to a rich American owner where sport is part of everyday life? Rather than a consortium of business professionals who want to make some money from a Premiership football club? -
Depends on position. You don't want a short centre back, you would want someone taller than the norm. Same for build, you don't want some skinny striker (Crouch only exception I can think of) you want a strong/athletic build up front. So it is a valid approach in the right context.

Just came to me in a vision, the answer to all our striking prayers, David Nugent! (I'll get my coat...)

Hallam Hope got great reviews once again and set up Barkley. Youth looks good for the future if we can keep hold of them.

Royston Drenthe position

Kanchelskis. -
2 things with the post from bluekipper...well may be 3 things. 1. Who blamed Kenwright for the collapse? It sounds nice and easy to blame Kenwright but do we know that the investors didn't pull out when they had a better offer of PSG? 2. I don't get the "his past proves the point"? (Genuinely) 3. Do we know what sort of investment PSG have had since their takeover? Have we missed out with that investor?

Thierry Henry
Everton_Worshiper replied to The Regulator's topic in Rumourama - Everton Transfer Rumours
Not often I could say this but seen Henry place twice in NY in MLS this year, and both times he has been overly disappointing, no where near the Henry we are all used to seeing on MOTD. That said, he would still make our starting 11 up front. -
David Moyes appreciation thread
Everton_Worshiper replied to Avinalaff's topic in General Everton Discussion
Wow, lots of testosterone running through this discussion. Back to the David Moyes part of the discussion...I think he has been wonderful for our football club, truly stabilised our sinking ship. I am a huge admirer of his and he will always be part of my memories of Everton. At the moment we are all fairly negative for numerous reasons and if things were going well may be I wouldn't be thinking this, but I honestly think Moyes is nearing his expiration date - a bit like a loaf of bread, when you bought it you it had a long date on it and it made the nicest, softest sandwiches but as the days go by the sandwiches you make with it just don't taste as fresh anymore. I don't think we are quite at the mouldy stage though. (Apologies for the terrible analogy, made sense in my head whilst writing this...) If Moyes turns it around then I am sure we would all love to be proved wrong. In fact, I hope he does prove us all wrong but I can't help but join the growing numbers who are starting to doubt Moyes' managerial "freshness" right now. I have had a hectic last 6 months or so but only missed 2 games this season, so I really look forward to and think positive about each game but at the moment I keep coming away completely deflated. -
Thanks, guys. I feel so loved right now.
-
Thanks. Yes I am more or less back, not been anywhere else (i.e. not been cheating on Toffetalk with any other forum) just not had much free time recently.

Anyone like Steven Fletcher from Wolves? Liked him every game I have seen him play in, and he will be within our budget.

Hallam Hope
Everton_Worshiper replied to james_clarke's topic in General Football and Sport Discussion
lol well completely run off my feet and spent some time over the pond in the USA (no excuse seen as though they have the internet over there ). I've been lurking but not had time to post, now have some more free time on my hands, if there is such a thing... -
Hallam Hope
Everton_Worshiper replied to james_clarke's topic in General Football and Sport Discussion
Anyone know any more recent developments about Hope? I hear that he is now one of the hottest youth properties we have and attracting a lot of interest from Spurs. He's not signed pro yet. -

Everton_Worshiper replied to The Beard's topic in General Everton Discussion
The fan share approach that Arsenal have is far better than putting an extra £100 on the cost of a season ticket. When it comes down to it, fans will not pay the extra in masses because there is no control over what the money is used for. Plus, I could imagine the majority of fans have other priorities to spend their extra money on rather than giving it (indirectly) to overpaid footballers. -
Adam Johnson
Everton_Worshiper replied to Everton_Worshiper's topic in Rumourama - Everton Transfer Rumours
I have always been an admirer of Johnson when he just broke in to Middlesborough (think I raved about him on this forum mostly). Still think he is awesome but like so many players his progression has halted somewhat because he doesn't play every week. -

Everton_Worshiper replied to The Beard's topic in General Everton Discussion
I would say that willingness of board members to sell is more likely than price, they likely want to retain a controlling interest with any takeover. Interestingly when you see news articles about the potential sale you often see the words "investment" rather than "takeover". -
This.

We should not and will not sell Jags.

Thank ten. She has battled it for a while and this week her body started to give up so everyone has had time to prepare, still hurts a lot when it finally happens.
