Maybe we have been talking to a player today, not his fault if it doesnt go through

It would be nice to get in another quality midfielder before the deadline but to be honest I am happy with the signings we have made, especially given the slow start we had when it didnt look like we were going to get anybody in

To be fair to Fernandes he was here on loan for half a season and told the board he would like to make it a permanent move and got no response from Everton. The season finishes he says he would like to sign for Everton and the boards response was deadly silence. He waits all summer and still fuck all from the Everton board. Then mid August arrives the season has already started Everton finaly show an intrest so Manny pulls out of the Benfica squad for a Champions League game(something we cant offer by the way!) and flies in to join us and waits and waits and waits . Then all of a sudden Valencia come in with a bid and say we would love you to play for us Manny! No wonder he fucked off Oh and a quote from Manny on SSN after he signed for Valencia What happened with Everton are things that I know nothing about and what is most important now is that I am here," Fernandes said.

The same arry who dropped his interest in Yakubu because " the price was getting silly"?

If they hadnt pissed about all summer they could have had it all sorted before the players came back for pre-season. Instead they fucked about until mid August before they decided to go for him

Not much of a consolation prize, out of the two I would rather the Yakubu deal had fallen through

SSN have just confirmed that Manny has signed for them for £12.2M

Well its not the boards fault for you stubbing your toe, I think thats down to you but its hardly surprising because you must be blind if you cant see that the board should have had this deal sorted a long time ago. How come Man U can manage to sort out the Tevez deal in a couple of days yet we cant do it in a few months? And before you point out the Tevez deal took months , the only delay was the dispute with West Ham and the thid party who owned him. Once that was sorted Man U moved SWIFTLY to tie up the deal If anything they set the presedence for us and we still fucked it up You cant blame the board for a player changing his mind but you can certainly point the finger at them for dithering for 4 months then losing out

I think you have to blame the board , they have had all summer to finalise the deal weve had him on loan for half a season and yet they only decided that they want him halfway through August. They should have moved for him straight away as soon as the season finished if they had Valencia would not have been able to gazump us

Good old Everton they never fail to dissapoint. If there is anyway to fuck up a deal you can rest assured that Everton will find it. They have had all summer to sort this out and once again they have dithered too long and lost out again. I doubt we will get anyone decent in now with the window closing at the end of the week. Even if they did have someone else lined up it would take nine months to tie the deal up

Are we actually £40M in debt? Just never read or heard about it

Cheers Mate No offence but hope your lot have a bad day at the office today but good luck for the rest of the season !

I think we desperately need a win today or we will have all the doom and gloom merchants chirping off and what has been a relatively good start to the season could soon turn in to a bit of a mini crisis A good win might just get everybody back behind the team and stop all the bickering. Well for a few hours or so at least!

Are we really in more debt now? Is this another conspiracy theory or have you got any facts to back that up because that is certainly not what the club are claiming. The official line is that turnover is up by 68% since he took over. Im not saying your wrong its just I havent heard anything about us being in more debt , everything I read anywhere else seems to point to the opposite being true

It does put mine more at ease! I think realistically that they are both in the bag already but with all things being Everton I wont be able to sleep easy until the official announcement

Im well pleased with all the new signings but its Leighton Baines for me . I think he will be our first decent left back since Psycho Pat and I think he is better than him

Very good point as there do seem to be a lot of people saying that thats them and Everton finished now. I just hope that once the dust settles people might calm down, all this bickering amongst the fans cant be good for the club, but I can understand why people feel so strongly. I just feel differently myself I would watch Everton anywhere. I love Goodison as much as the next person but I cant understand how people can keep harping on about all the tradition of the place because surely they can see that we need to move. It is a grand OLD stadium and it is heaped in glorious tradition but the key word is OLD No doubt this debate will roll on and an. At the end of the day I think the new ground will generate more revenue one way or the other because it surely makes us a better proposition for potential investors. Im hoping that success on the pitch will bring in more supporters than we lose, maybe I am being overly optomistic but only time will tell

I dont think the the extra £10M will be coming from gate receipts alone. The extra exec boxes will bring more money in undoubtedly but the corporate facilities dont end there. A new state of the art stadium could be used for other events not just once every other week and I reckon that will bring in a few bob I doubt the baord are nieve enough to price the fans out of going to the game. Some people seem to perceive KW as some sort of big bad wolf, but do you really think that he hasnt thought this through? Like him or loathe him he seems to me to be a very astute buisnessman and not one that would make asuch a schoolboy error

Ever heard of corporate facilities?

No way was he the worst , at least he got a winner against Man U at Old Trafford

Heres one for uou. Say having passed your driving test on your 17th birthday your awl fella said heres £8000 go and get yourself a car(financial package sorted) but your uncle says dont do that one day you might win the pools and be able to get yourself a top of the range Austin Martin. (no financial package) So you take his advice and wait to win the pools , meanwhile all your mates pass there tests and go on to buy their own cars (Getting left behind) and you drift apart because you have now all got different interests ( possibly relegation) Then on your 70th Birthday you still havent won the pools and so no Austin Martin you think back and wonder what life might have been like had you bought that car afterall

I agree mate the way this forum is going its only going to be a matter of time before the theory that BK was the man on the grassy knoll with KW driving the getaway car when JFK was shot! I dont care where we play ONCE A BLUE ALWAYS A BLUE

Think its a bit presumptuous to think you are a better blue than anyone who voted yes just because its a different opinion than yours

Fair point but I dont really feel that the club is to blame, the LCC has had plenty of time to come up with a decent proposal and they have failed big time and I think thats where people should be venting their anger. If those of you who feel that they can no longer support the club then fair enough that your perogative but i think the rest of us need to get behind the team now. I do think it is worth perceviering with your Loop Campaign if you truly beleive it is the best way forward. If you could back up the plan with hard facts as to where the money is going to come from , if it meets the safety standards etc then Im sure if there was an overwhelming feeling amongst supporters to do a u turn then Im sure we could make it happen. All the yes vote has done is allow us to move forward in the meantime

So where does that leave the 15000 that voted yes?
