Genuine enquiry guys, so please no flak, but does anyone have the slightest idea as to why, season after season, we are suffering so much with injuries? I know all teams have injuries to key players at some stage, but we seem to be plagued with them. Is it something to do with the fitness or training methods? I for one, have no idea, but some of the more knowledgeable amongst you may have some theories at least.

just a thought, I dont get to see too many games, so I bow to others superior knowledge, but how about YOBO RODWELL DISTIN BAINES

just read on O/S Yak back and playing for ressies against Burnley Tomorrow, about bloody time we had some good news!!

My son has paid well over £125 to watch this game with travel etc, I may get slated for this, but what a crock of shit!! a disgrace to the shirt,just the sort of performance to attract new players to the club!!! totally gutted, do the decent thing everton players, give your wages this week to charity!!

Lets be honest, Lescott does not give a F/F about Everton, or what they have done for him, and I guess neither would I if another company offered to treble my wages, however, Football is not just a business, and players are not just employees, we, the fans, through the money we pay for games, merchandise etc, make them what they are! He does not want to stay, so what’s the point of keeping him? He is just greedy like the rest of them, with zero loyalty to his club. Let him go to Mercenary City F.C., yes, we will miss him, and it will be difficult to replace him, especially in 4 days, but we will survive, we always do, we are Everton F.C. and we, unlike Lescott, will still be here in years to come! C.O.Y.B.

just hear on SSN Onuhoa just signed 5 year deal at Man SHitty, another one bites the dust!

from EFC official website (Sorry, only know how to cut and paste)

Bloody Hell! Bedford? must be bollocks then, thats even worse than The Peoples Republic of Luton! lol (Im from West Derby originally)

As I said, probably paper talk. below latest rumours from BBC Celtic striker Kenny Miller is ready to return to England next season, with Everton leading the chase for the Scot. (Daily Mirror) Everton and England striker Andy Johnson is keen to return to London as he is homesick. (Daily Express) Portsmouth have joined Manchester United, Aston Villa and Everton have joined the race to sign Wolves' star Michael Kightly. (Daily Mail)

It is probably just papertalk, however, I have just seen on the newspaper roundup on SSN, 'AJ ROCKS EVERTON' thinking it was another injury, I watched further and it was paper headline(dont know which one) saying AJ was home sick and wanted to move back to a london club!

Anyone able to let me know what the hell has happened to VDM again? seemed to get a few starts then not even on the bench. is he injured or what?

Nah, Bugger all still. my phone is wap enabled. suppose I will have to contact someone, probably a scam by an RS supporter to build up some readys in case the yankee deal goes tits up!

Thanks Louis, Ive got a samsung on O2 so should be ok, but still nothing. will keep trying. apreciate the help.

Sorry peeps, not football, but for a laugh, I attempted to get one of the 'spinning shirts' of the official EFC site for my mobile. sent code to noted number, and 5 hours later FU ** all! anyone else had any probs?

Still bugger all on on official site! what a suprise! why the hell do they have a 'news' section, when every other media from sky sports to asda notice board gets the info first. just read the news section again, bloody tragic about the Titanic isnt it?

talkshit still singing the praises for the blues.make a change for the southern biased station. apparently Moyes sent off! anyone know the truth?

At work, so getting stats from talk sport! Alvin Martin saying the bues have been Magnificent.

91% possession for the Arse,!!! Shit, if I had any hair I would be pulling it out!

anyone listening.watching the Scotland game? Mcfadden off injured, anyone know how bad? UPDATE. just heard it is a hamstring injury, dont know how bad.

Just read in the News of the World(yeh, I know,but some good boobs now and then!) 'Nuno Valente has lauched a stinging attack on Everton,claiming they lack ambition. The portugal defender 31, who kicks off his world cup campaign today against angola said '' I have got a contract with Everton and everything indicates I will continue for another year, but if another offer appears I can change.Id like to play for a more ambitious club'' Wanker!!

I was wondering where the barcodes had disappeared to! I know its only the Mirror, but report says they are now in for Huth, and he is impressed with what Roeder has to offer. here we go again!

Have just read this on Times website. seems to me BK/DM are up to old tricks, make a lot of noise about tranfers they know are not going to happen. once again, no bloody money available. what happened to the money we had to buy Owen last season? Yes, I know, it never existed! Everton were relieved to get in on the act after Simon Jordan, the Palace chairman, had appeared reluctant to accept their offer. They had a £7.25 million bid rejected last week, and have matched the £8.5 million fee offered by Bolton and Wigan, but the uncertainty stems from the structure of the deal proposed by the board at Goodison Park. Whereas Wigan have offered the majority of the fee up front and Bolton within 12 months, the Merseyside club have asked to stagger payments over the next two seasons because of a lack of available funds. Now, however, Everton can be cautiously optimistic about their chances of signing Johnson, particularly as the 25-year-old is believed to have misgivings about joining either Bolton or Wigan. Allardyce and Paul Jewell, his Wigan counterpart, will attempt to convince him that their respective clubs can help him fulfil his international aspirations, but Everton remain hopeful that he will reject both , which would leave them as clear favourites. In terms of wages, Bolton and Everton share concerns that they might be unable to match the terms on offer at Wigan, whose multimillionaire owner, Dave Whelan, is expected to guarantee Johnson more than £45,000 a week plus bonuses. If it comes down to more than money, however, Everton are hopeful that their higher profile has the strongest attraction, while Allardyce believes that his powers of persuasion will prove decisive when he meets the player.

Mirror this morning says we will be signing Tim Howard today on loan, Pistone probably on his way(sorry adam!!),Wright on his way and expect Yobo to Arsenal. Happy days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sky sports news, sky website, The people website, various other newspapers. The one place there is no mention of this kid, is on the official website! Headline news? just been reading the website, what a dreadful thing to have happened, I really thought the Titanic was unsinkable!!!

The new Wayne Rooney?? Better lock up your grannies than TTrs! little snippet from THE PEOPLE website. SCOTT TO BE BLUES NEW ROO By Alan Nixon Everton are trying to sign the next Wayne Rooney - teenage striker Scott Spencer from Oldham's highly-rated academy. Speedy and strong Spencer has been rattling in goals for the Latics' youth sides and has scored over 20 times this season. Now Everton are close to agreeing a fee and will have to pay as much as £200,000 down plus instalments for the 16-year-old starlet. Bolton have also been trying to sign Spencer for months, but Everton think the Manchester-born forward is the best around at his age and will pay a decent price to get him. Oldham discovered Micah Richards before losing him to Manchester City.
