    Lazy journalism though. The've litreally gone "who's the best wigan players?"
    "McCarthy and Mcmanaman"
    "Martinez is off to Everton so write a story saying they're leaving with their manager to Everton"

    Haha my friend also said I'd absolutely hate it. Think I'll give it a miss and stick to Dexter and Breaking Bad

    According to Clive Tyldesley "we'll be talking about this moment for years to come".
    No Clive, no we won't be talking about Chamberlain's goal in a friendly against Brazil in 10 years time. Tit!

    On SSN now as well. Has BK met with Pereira as well? It says in the article that he met with him last week but I haven't seen anything official about that. Getting interesting now. These names however are definately more appealing than the ones we heard at the start. Time will tell I guess. Still think it will be Martinez though.

    Good plan Zoo but knowing Bill he's stick 60 million on Martinez on Friday night then hire Alan Stubbs Saturday morning.
    "We're definitely gonna have to sell if you want to buy this year Stubbsy".

    Same here. Not my first choice but will definately support him. Hopefully he'll get us a few signings with his Spanish contacts. Don't want anyone from Wigan apart from McCarthy and maybe McManaman.

    "And that's how it came to pass that on the second-to-last day of the job, the convict crew that tarred the plate factory roof in the spring of forty-nine wound up sitting in a row at ten o'clock in the morning drinking icy cold, Bohemia-style beer, courtesy of the hardest screw that ever walked a turn at Shawshank State Prison."
    "Drink up while it's cold, ladies."
    "The colossal prick even managed to sound magnanimous."
    My favourite scene ever. Whenever I watch it I think to myself "Christ I've gotta have a beer"

    Apparently Jurgen Klinsmann's odds have gone from 100/1 to 14/1 in the space an hour. He'd be interesting.

    Tony Pulis? Please, I honestly could not think of a worse candidate. Does that mean I can throw Steve Kean's name in there as well for a laugh? Ohh and Terry O' Connor, how can we forget about him. Out of all the names mentioned above, the only 3 I would even consider are Laudrup, Martinez and Pereira (massive risk as I have never seen him manage but he looks exciting and attacking).

    Zoo I'm in stitches here. Absolutely brilliant. My favourite was "I think £10 million is a realistic value, if we haggled enough then maybe we would be able to get it to rise to 15." Quality!!

    My birthday today and I would love nothing more than 3 points tonight as a present. Apparently watching Everton on sky is not a sociable enough thing to do on my birthday therefore I have to go for a meal with the girlfriend instead. Bloody women! I'll sky plus it and try my best not to check for score updates on my phone all night. Will be bloody hard though. Planning on watching it after I get back. Really hope we go for it tonight and catch them on the counter. Feel anichebe could have a beastly night tonight and absolutely torment their centre backs. Here's hoping anyway. Enjoy the game lads!

    Osman had a shocker today. The amount of times we got ourselves into good positions and his pass was underhit/overhit or chose the wrong one was ridicilous. He gave Baines no protection whatsoever when he moved onto the wing. Gutted.

    When thinking of our performances lately though these words come to mind: slow, old, negative, defensive, direct, tired

    Pienaar's decision making is absolutely atrocious. The amount of times he attempts a pathetic misplaced shot instead of playing his teammate clean on goal is ridicilous. Barkley would have been clean through there and could have won it. Pissed off!

    Pienaar pisses me off at times. Spins away well then gives a shocking pass! So frustrating!

    Anichebe for me. The only one who looked slightly bothered plus had some good moments such as the cross to Naismith, spin an turn just wide, flicked it on for distin and should have had a penalty.

    gethinO got a reaction from pete0 in Gareth Bale   
    Haha agree to diasgree. Yeah I rate Ramsey but since his injury he hasn't really performed and lived up to his hype. Massive season for him this one. Think with Wales we have got some decent players like Bale, Ramsey, Allen, Bellamy, Williams, Taylor and before Speed died there was huge optimism about this qualifying group. Coleman's lost his 3 games in charge, but to be fair the first was a memorial match for Speed and then a very tough friendly against Mexico. But against Bosnia we were all over the place, and we hoofed it a lot, which is very worrying considering the passing game we played under Speed. Got my ticket for the Belgium game but suddenly everyone's all doom and gloom. With Hazard playing well and Fellaini's monsterous performance vs United it doesn't look good especially when they have the likes of kompany, vermaelen, vertoghen, witsel, mirallas, dembele and lukaku to add to the two I've mentioned. Hell of a young squad. Ooops I need reminding sometimes that this is an Everton forum....

    gethinO got a reaction from pete0 in Michael Owen?   
    Am I the only one that would be slightly happy with this signing? Rumours are that it would be a pay as you play deal.... then surely it's a win win? Give him the ball in the box and 9 times out of 10 he'll put it in the back of the net. Personally I think it's worth the gamble for one year and IF (I know it's a very big if) he stays fit he could be a good impact player and chip in with a couple of goals. Just think he'd be a decent player on a free transfer.
