Everton_Worshiper

awesome goal by saha.

Victor looks a changed player from last few seasons, he is still my tip for the new season. Anyone else excited to see Rodwell play in the new season...I certainly am!

Coleman looks good, Hibbert looks ace. But for me, Rodwell looks commanding so far. Dare I say it, so far Jags is poor.

Tenacious, don't want to depress you further or anything but I don't understand the phrase "taken back to brick", what does that mean?

Last week I snapped a muscle in my lower back, so swollen that I can't walk or stand up straight A week later and no change, I officially hate backs.

Besides Gosling as a player, to me it is a bit strange such a "rule" exists. Does anyone have a quote of the actual rules definition?

Goslings only way of getting a big pay day (via signing on fee). Was never going to set the Premier League alight and could probably see he didn't fit in Moyes' plans so he took the best option for him personally. I doubt if any of us were in that situation you would do what is best for you and not your employer.

Liked him when at Portsmouth (didn't we try to get him then too?), so good squad addition.

I agree. He does look as though he needs a good meal or two inside him though.

...but...is he better than Carlo Nash? That's who he has been brought in to replace.

Whilst this is good news that we actually have more of a squad this year, if I was from Everton I would be a bit pissed that a photo of a potential signing having his medical has been posted in the public domain.

Well, at the moment I run my own IT consultancy company and have minority stakes in others. I am basically an enterprise architect but I am very hands on, I know (or like to think I do) pretty much anything from programming (.Net, Java etc) to business analysis (data modelling, business processes etc) to solution architecture (bit boring but heavily paid). My money earner is my knowledge of refining of oil, I was picked out of sixth form of high school for my programming ability by a refinery (I built some clever component tracking software as a hobby - yep I am a geek) and never got the chance to get to Uni as I was quickly thrown up the career ladder because I have a weird ability to learn things by reading the front cover of a book (that's how I was described anyway). I turn 30 this year and would love to pack this in to go live a quiet life somewhere on the coast instead of the high pressured work I do now...but I can't complain, I spend about 9 months of the year working from home and get to spend a lot of time with my son (10 months old)! Despite all this, Anil Ambani still won't answer my calls/emails :lol:

I must say I practically wet my pants watching this trailer (took me back to my childhood days), I hope it gets full funding as I believe that this trailer was put together to tempt the investors..?

Let's hope all signings are performed nice and early.

Starting work again on the 14th

Almost certainly the end of Vaughan now.

Nothing to do with us but what about this for a quote from Toure's agent about the financial state of Man City: "Everything has changed with City, because they talk a lot but then afterwards they don't appear to be a rich club but rather a bankrupt one." Maybe bitter because they won't pay his wage demands but I like to think they are heading towards the red. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/gossip_and_transfers/default.stm

If it is true, I hope he is coming to just polish Baines' boots.

No, no, no!

Well I see his comments differently, they sound like "thanks for helping me prove myself"...more of a parting thanks than a I'm staying thanks.

Well I have nearly finished series 1 of Glee, dare I say that so far it is quite good in a typically cheesy way that only Americans can do.

I am with you all the way. It is such a public display of hypocrisy from Capello that it is laughable.

quality post!

Sounds like my dinner I had on Saturday after a few beers, number 39 if I remember correctly.
