Welcome back. Wasn't the same without you.

 

Was thinking of taking a vacation myself incidentally.

Thank you Dalziel.

Turkey was incredibly beautiful, and I miss it already.

He reminds me of the Predator lol.

It's a great opportunity for him. I can see it being a goer if they raise their bid a bit to maybe 5-6.

The Twitter account that reported the City deal is fake

I'm expecting the end of this window to hit the main Everton forums pretty hard, in terms of server overload, and wondered whether you have any measures in place to deal with it.

GOT will be mostly closed, which might make things worse again here, so thought I'd mention it, as will be a shame if the forum crashes.

He's a young lad who can play center or left.

I ran with it yesterday but wasn't sure if there was really any truth behind it all.

We've had a bid rejected for him tonight apparently.

Back it up or pack it up baby.

I missed todays games.

How did they go? Did the United fans react well ?

I'd take the guy again. He showed a lot of quality in many areas of his game.

Martinez is under pressure to prove Kone is a good addition, so no way are fringe strikers going to get preference at the moment. Jelly has been given a chance to prove he is first choice, and also to not upset the apple cart too much, but if Jelly doesn't score soon, he will become 2nd choice behind Kone.

I'll worry about Barry when I see him with an Everton shirt on his back. I never take notice of itk's, as for every one they get right, they get loads wrong.

The last thing we want is 4 or 5 new players yet lose 2 established ones of this quality.

It's not easy to get new players to gel. If we must sell, then may it be for the highest price possible, and certainly not for the figures touted around. It's not like United are skint.

I'll be happy keeping what we have and buying another midfielder. It's a sad state of affairs when you have to sell players to buy players, when teams all around us are hiking prices up with their money is no object attitudes and bottomless pockets.

I'd love for City to get involved just to piss United off, but then tell them both to shove it.

Don't I feel an ass right now?

I hope that's your birds your talking about and not Fruity Franks.

Shite anyway

It's a reflection of our squad strength that players underperforming are keeping their places. The strikers are suffering as a result.

Also, we need to draw them out of their box. Everybody we've played so far has defended in numbers, and we don't have the quality to break them down. Let them have the ball and wait for the counter etc.

ok.... hows this then:

 

 

A triple badge. I like it. Unique and out there.

O here we go, the grammar patrol.

 

Get a life.

Oh, here we go; the grammar police.

Get a life.

You have the centre of the pitch which is a 50/50 split. The remainder are the two defensive zones. 3 zones in total.

Is that how it works? Never looked at it like that. Cheers Haf.

Yep, it would invariably lower the required points to survive given that 2 x 1 point for a draw is less than the 3 points for a win. Meaning the other point disappears.

You could feasibly win the league with 38 points, and 3 teams would be relegated on 38 points.

We have played 3 teams happy to get a point, early on in the season. I actually think having "lower" expectation teams early in the season ain't good. They will fight just tooth and nail not to concede.

 

We need to improve in the final third though.

I don't get that expression. A pitch has 2 halves, so surely it would need to be the final quarter. ?

 

Eight time in the last ten seasons thirty eight points has been enough to stay up.

38 draws has a different effect on the rest of the league than 38 points

 

 

Don't!

 

I can't tell you hoe deflated I am after watching our game today.

Are you talking to the tools again mate?

isn't it you're?

It's amazing how often that happens.

 

You're on - but let's make it a little more believable.

Gareth Barry and a free account on Bluemoon?

 

 

I hear Suarez wants out of the shite.

Fangs for that Romey.
