Everton_Worshiper Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Now, its not that he has drunk too much, someone must have spiked his drinks.

Adam Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Was just going to say the same thing. Season starts in less than 2 weeks and he is out drinking when should be looking at getting over his injuries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWooney Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 exactly what i was thinking. weather he actually got spiked or not is not the point, if he had any discipline he shouldn't have been out. he's already said that he's recently got over a drink problem, he's got injury problems and needs to get fit and in good shape for an important season in his career but he's out getting pissed. idiot!

rowlo-efc Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Look lads - the guy obviously has a drinking problem. The definition of an alcoholic is simple - somebody who allows alcohol to affect their lives more than just financially. i.e. when it costs you more than just money, you have a problem. It is costing this guy his career. He had a glittering career ahead of him - he was in the national squad, playing for Ajax and then Inter - but this problem has dented his hopes. That makes it worse. He is a sick individual and probably hates the fact that he drinks - probably doesn;t even like what he is doing to himself (on reflection). But it is an illness and unfortunately he is the only person that can help! No Doctor can help. Alcoholism is classed as a three fold illness. 1. physical (it kills you) 2. mental and 3. spiritual. the third cause is the hardest to overcome. Anybody can have will power to stop them picking up a drink but if they are not happy within themselves, then the drink will flow regardless of the strength of will power. Its a horrible illness and I just hope, even if he never kicks a ball for Everton again, that he can find the strength to sort himself out (thats assuming he is an alcoholic). Drinking 2 weeks before the season starts - its disappointing, but having lived with a raving alcolholic, I know what its about and I know that he probably wouldn't have wanted a drink - but he did and thats that. Live and let live boys - dont be angered. Thats Moyes job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everton_Worshiper Posted August 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Just because he was out partying does mean he was Drinking 43833[/snapback] So the fact the one person in the Everton squad who has constant rumours of alcoholism just so happens to be the one with his "drink spiked". Me thinks alcohol is taking its toll on andy and he needed an excuse for how drunk he got....if the story turns out to be true then fair enough but personally I am waiting for the "Andy admitted to clinic" post of the OS.

java2001e Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 "A spokesman for Everton FC said: "I can confirm that Andy van der Meyde spent the night in Arrowe Park hospital after being admitted on Monday morning suffering from illness. "His progress is currently being monitored by hospital staff. "The club will be making no further comment on the incident until after Merseyside Police has concluded its ongoing investigation into the circumstances surrounding Andy's admission into hospital."

Bill Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 (edited) How long are you going to put your faith in this man. Some people still think he will be racing down the wing for us this season, theres never been a chance of that happening, ever since he arrived. He's a waster who has been paid £I.5m pounds since he arrived, and given Fook all in return. He went down on bended knee, and pleaded for another chance to stay here, and he has repaid Moysey by doing this. We still have 3 weeks before the window shuts so lets get a replacement in, and cancel his contract. (nobody will buy him). I dont want the twat getting another penny out of this Club, so we need to send him packing now, or we will have him till january, and thats another million pounds he'll be able to Piss up against the Wall.........the Bastard.

FairWooney Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 i'm sure we all hope that romey! i think he come good and if he can get in the team and start playing to his potential it would really help him overcome and personal problems he may have. i think if he can play to his potential on the wing it would really complete our side not to mention giving us versatility with him being able to play left or right. so many teams get wingers to swap sides through out games to mix things up now and van de mayde is the perfect player for that. with two decent strikers we need as many good crossers and passers of the ball in midfield as possible to create those chances that they need.

java2001e Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 (edited) its the last chance saloon for andy! but then he seems to like saloons. from sporting life. Dutch winger Andy van der Meyde has been told by Everton boss David Moyes he is on his "last chance" at the club. The 26-year-old found himself in hospital last week after a night out in Liverpool, amid claims his drinks had been spiked. But after he had been discharged from hospital, Moyes issued a club fine on him for being out socialising two days before a match, the Aberdeen friendly last Tuesday. And van der Meyde was involved as a second-half substitute in the 1-0 home defeat by Athletic Bilbao on Saturday. Moyes has told the club's official website, evertonfc.com: "It will be his last chance. If I hear of him stepping out of line again, there will not be another opportunity for him. "We like players to enjoy themselves here and we make sure they do. But it's at the right time and when it suits Everton." Moyes added: "That's why you have a contract and why you agree to club rules. You agree to the things expected of a professional footballer. If Andy doesn't fit into that, I'm sorry, but it won't work for him." But Moyes has been happy with the player's response to the fine, adding: "I would say, though, that he's a good lad, very remorseful and he's determined to show that he can play for Everton. That's what I want him to do. There's a talent and a pedigree there and we want him to succeed." Edited August 15, 2006 by Mac 1970 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
