    rubecula reacted to Shukes in Yacine Brahimi   
    If he’s in his prime then maybe we should be looking at him. Big mentality clubs but players in their prime.
    Small clubs have to look at younger players to make profit on, or older players cheaply.
    we need to get into the big club mentality.

    Part of me loves the fact we get over two weeks of not watching that dross!

    rubecula reacted to Cornish Steve in Predict Our Result: 2018/2019 Season   
    Well done, Rubes (and yours truly) for winning the round with five points. Sadly, we predicted correctly that Everton would lose and fail to score. For the month of February, MikeO keeps his lead. For the season and per prediction, I've managed to increase my lead a little.

    Gordon Banks has died. RIP.   I played golf with him at the Belfry some years ago.  A lovely man and the best goalkeeper England ever had.

    I have a feeling that we’ll see early drafts once the transfer window opens, either as an incentive for new signings, reassurance after this season or a distraction to a quiet transfer window...

    It seems Jesper Blomqvist is now running a pizzeria near Stockholm. I forgot he used to play for us, then I remember what he used to do with his sleeves.

    As I mentioned above I am making it over for the wolves game. First time at GP! Got my stadium tour tickets.  Wrote down some of Pete's pub suggestions.  Anything else I should check out while I am there?
    How early do fans start making their way to the game? What's the best spot for a drink before the game? The Winslow? Assume the best way to get there is to walk from the Kirkdale stop down Westminster Rd?

    rubecula reacted to MikeO in Tim Howard   
    “I just wanted to be a professional soccer player in Europe, lo and behold Manchester United offered me a contract so I grabbed the nearest pen and I signed it," Howard said. "Things didn’t work out there for me, so it was time for me to move on. Little did I know, the single greatest thing to happen to me after my children was to sign for Everton Football Club. Who would have known that? I spent a decade there, Everton has a piece of my heart that can never be relinquished.”
    Nice that.

    You said it, its a rumour that's why its here. 90% of all the rumours in here are made up by people who think they are  ITK or newspapers who have nothing to print so they start a rumour.
    Its a rumourama thread makis, that's all it is so don't take anything in here so serious. 😊
     
    Edit........  You beat me to it Shukes.

    It’s not us who wrote the rumour Makis, we’re all commenting on a rumour that was in the tabloids.
    Lets face it, 99% of rumours are made up. This would be a very boring place if we never commented on them.

    Huddersfield literally have no-one. Mooy is class but I think he is injured, but everyone else is terrible. They do work hard though and they will have a go and that is normally enough for us to brick it and lose.

    My 21st birthday breakfast was,  cold fried egg, cold bacon, lukewarm beans.  Troopship, middle of Indian Ocean.  No point in complaining.😁

    Speaking of... My 25th birthday breakfast was Guinness on Coco Pops because we were in a tent in Wales with no milk.

    rubecula reacted to Shukes in Edin Dzeko   
    This is it exactly for me. To many balls going into and to the edge of the box, and coming straight back. Crosses going in with no one anywhere near them. 
    For me the midfield have enough of the ball in the final third to create chances. But there has to be someone in there reading the game. We need a proper forward.

    I think it is plain to see that if we do not change the way we play  we need a target man to hold up play nd bring his team mates in.
