What rumours were they? He wasnt exactly a renowned party animal during his playing days, unless there is smoething gowing on at these pigeon racing events that they dont tell us about!

Hooray Antilin is fit and all his injury problems are over ....... For this week

That makes him a contender for MotM then because most of the side were dross for the full 90

Play well, maybe? Needs a chance to settle in before we can really start judging him but wasnt exactly a good first impression

Naismith even though he was only on the pitch for about 5 minutes! Everyone else was pretty poor

Relieved that Arsenal won even though I dont fancy our chances against them

Awful performance but fortunately Swanea's second string were even worse than we were

Taking 2 of my girls today for their very first competitive game at Goodison ( ones 4 the other 6 ) so hoping they put on a show and get the win!

http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-fc-midfielder-ross-barkley-6709529 "He's got incredible, incredible ability and ball control." Lol I think phenominal is bettr than incredible but does double incredible beat phenominal?

YeahMartinez has us playing a better brand of football but has it really effected our league standing? I admire the job he is doing and I love his poitivity but I just dont think we are anywhere near as good as the current top 4 and we never will be until we have the money to copete on a even playing field. Its nit a critisicm of Martinez its just a fact of modern day football

Lol I notice you renaged on commenting on the fact Forrest nearly doubled the then transfer record for Francis in their team without stars

I think those days are long gone , oh and by the way the " star " was Trevor Francis a then British record transfer fee

Your full of shit Haf, I have never once try to " dilute the impact Martineez has had" I merely stated that any manager coming in would find it very difficult to improve on "my ex idols " league position without significant financial backing I obviously got that wrong in your eyes but I think you will find that statistacally it wasnt a million miles away from the truth, maybe you need to practice what you preach and its you who needs to let it go

Lol so Im probably wasting my time saying that Didier Deschamps was spot on when he said every good team needs a water carrier If your looking at him to spray 40 yard passes and beat 10 men then you are going to be dissapointed but thats not his game, he breaks things up and then gives it to the more technically gifted players to do their thing. He also gives them the confidence to try things knowing that he can bail them out if it goes wrong The lad never stops running and he is playing alongside the best mentor he could possibly have in the game, one things for certain if he moves from Everton this side of his 30th birthday I bet we make a tidy profit on him

I have never thought for a second that Roberto could improve our league poition an in fact Im highly impressed that he has been able to maintain it. The one area I am hoping will change is that his positivity may enhance our chances in the cup competitions He has already done a Moyes and capitulated in the League Cup so Im pinning my hopes on the FA Cup

How many thirty yard goals into the top corner did you see Peter Reid get?

I agree The squad is desperately thin at the most crucial part of the season and it has cost us valuable points. We have totally blown any chance we had of 4th now and I dont see how the transfer market is going to be any better value in the summer staright after the World Cup

Got to disagree about McCarthy. I thought we paid over the odds for him but he is like Peter Ried with legs and is only going to get better with experience

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2557979/Everton-fan-THIRTY-years-finally-makes-Goodison-Park-Toffees-play-live-time-match-postponed.html Absolutely love Everton for this kind of stuff, well done all that were involved in this especially Helen Mayo

Its no more than I expected to be honest All the Moyes bashers would be up in arms if we did this under him but the simple matter of the fact is your not going to get into the top four without the money to back you up We may play the ball around the back four a bit more but fuck all else has changed and its not likely to unless we can afford to compete financially

Erm Im not too sure that was a police officer you bumped into
