He’s an important player for us.

We have a Poor keeper Ian ?

The spat at united after another defeat, I think is something to look at. It will in all likelihood cost Carrick his job, with them looking for their 9th manager temp or permanent in 7 years. And what will actually change? A poor keeper, a poor defence, a midfield that cant run and a lack of top class centre forwards. We are United Lite in many ways.

Gosh, this game is so hard to call.

I second that Steve

I would have to agree but also add, until everyone witnessed the performance Jimmy!

🔪. 🔫

Appreciate the kind comments, Steve. Michael and I are doing our best to improve TW and keep/restore what made it so great previously. We’re dealing with a whole host of challenges and would like to improve the pace of changes, but we’re doing what we can. Glad to see some can see that.

The Henry Winter/ Christian Purslow podcast on Everton FC potential sale and current status is worth a listen. Many will not agree with some views expressed, particularly retaining Moyes, but it’s an informed conversation imo.

I mentioned my team for this game on another thread, so this is a repeat. I think Moyes can’t take any more chances at RB – Garner would be the best option to keep the likes of Eze and Madueke at bay. And Hackney should fill his role in midfield. I would also play George on the right wing. Pickford Garner Tarkowski Branthwaite Mykolenko Hackney Dewsbury-Hall Armstrong George Barry Grealish With possible subs being – Alcaraz, Johnson, Dibling, Rohl, O’Brien, Norgaard. This team has enough talent and steel to take the fight to Arsenal, if only Moyes believes in himself and his players. And, Pickford needs to find his best form quickly – his last 2 games have been iffy and the vultures are beginning to circle (from an England point of view).

We should thank Mike and Harry for getting TW back on track. The site could be sat behind a payment wall, but it is a free forum that enables Evertonians to discuss and debate. All I read is endless complaining about the betting ads (don’t click on them), the number of articles (too many or diverse), or the functionality (likely to be resolved next month).

There is clearly a lack of goals in the team and the burden is too great for Barry to carry on his own. How about moving Dewsbury-Hall back into no6 role and bring Alcatraz into no10 role. Every time that lad plays he either scores or creates an assist for someone. Just a thought Mr Moyes!

22-10-26 — 11-19am. Just for your records book Michael— Earlier in the week Tuesday (?) Everton’s U17’s beat Derby County’s U17’s 5-0 at Finch Farm in the U17’s cup, Kai Hutchison scored a hat trick and Harry Brookes got the other two Nsangou played in this game so maybe they are taking this competition senriously.

Nice to hear from you, Ronnie. Eric’s take is more accurate: Lyndon chose to sell ToffeeWeb to Moveup Media. I had to watch just as everyone else did as the site foundered and people struggled in the early days after the initial changes. I’d had no contact with Moveup Media previously but I found one of the executives on LinkedIn. He was receptive to my observations and thought it would help having a recognized Evertonian name posting on ToffeeWeb again. It took a few months but we got things back on track somewhat, with Harry then coming on board to look after the site on their side. Our objective, as I see it, is to post up between one and three relevant items of Everton content each day for people who want to stay informed about the club and hopefully how other fans are thinking. As for openness and accountability, I’ll let you make that call.

Ronnie I am sure Michael Kenrick is well able to defend himself but he has been as critical as anybody about the owners new format for this site. As for Lyndon he sold this site for a handsome profit and good luck to him. I did email Harry Diamond and he is hopeful that early November we may get all posts in chronological order which well help enormously. Remember its the owners who control this site not Michael or Harry. They want Toffeeweb to operate as it used too and I know they are putting pressure on the new owners to make the changes we all want. Lets hope they can persuade the new owners and we get Toffeeweb back to what it used to be.

Oh yes I remember now. Great day.

22-10-26— 8-58am. I think the player Joe was after was already earmarked for another club by the player Joe was after -I think Joe was already set for the boot at that time struggling with Everton near the bottom of the league!

🙂

22-10-26—8-48am Nice one Brendan ! I hope you find this reply— it’s helping to keep our brains working the way Toffeeweb is operating at the moment, but it will be back to normal soon won’t it Arena?

Trust me, the reason Moyesasaurus brought Norgaard on is because he will be in that team regardless of form as soon as he can get him in. This was Moyes at his most happily dissatisfied. He had already given up on the game and was thinking of next week.

Well said Eric I think Michael is doing his best to keep Toffeeweb awake before it slowly snuffs it.

Hi Paul, Which article are you referring to?

Hi Ronnie, a pretty inaccurate take there and entirely unfair to Michael. If you want a more informed view, feel free to reach out. Thanks.

In short. Dont read it

Glad to see he got something right – bit of a drastic way to prove your point though

Isn’t that what’s called virtue signalling these days?

Lyndon chose to sell TW to this French lot, he didn’t choose to leave because of them. And let’s not forget it was Michael who set TW up (with a Finnish bloke) before Lyndon came on board. It’s his baby in essence. Thanks to Michael there has been a modicum of continuity in TW, content wise at least, despite the website issues. Whatever happened to Colm (the newsagent?) from the early days too?

“The ball carrying spark of players like Idrissa Gana Gueye”??? I loved the guy but that’s not how I remember him.

As I mentioned in another post, he should play Garner at RB. That opens up a spot for Hackney in the middle. And I would definitely start with George on the right in front of Garner who will cover any mistakes that he makes. Pickford Garner Tarks Branthwaite Myko Hackney Dewsbury-Hall Armstrong George Barry Grealish With possible subs being Alcaraz, Johnson, Dibling, Rohl, O’Brien. There are solutions to be found in the squad, but Moyes is too stubborn and set in his ways to try different options.

Absolutely, Jay. If moneybags Manchester City and LFC are unable to unable to find specialise RBs good enough to play for them and instead play their best midfielders there (Matheus Cunha and Szoboszlai), why can’t Moyes consider playing Garner as a medium term solution? Let us be honest, even if we sign the world’s best RB in the winter window, Moyes will keep him on the bench until April at least. And either George or Dibling has to start the next game. With Garner covering their flank, they can attack more confidently.

Kenrick has clearly bought into the current owners’ philosophy of massively damaging the essence of what made Toffeeweb readable and immediately relevant. Lyndon chose to leave. Does anyone at all feel confident that Kenrick, presumably well paid by the opaque current owners, can soon re-create openness and accountability that used to exist under Lyndon? In short, is Kenrick a Kenwright acolyte – in it for himself alone?

My man of the match, Micheal K, showed 100% commitment to the blues bothering to acknowledge the shite he has to put up with

Why isn’t the article on here, not as if we are snowed under with reading up to date news, today we are talking about the 95 cup final, not exactly current, is it

Good luck with finding a reason The Moyesiah brought a player on ,who two days earlier he had told the media was not ready to play. He was correct.

I love gambling. Helps if you regularly win

Apologies for commenting on one of your partys ,ahem,politicians. Why did you think I would like that Johnathan? You do know the chap in question,showing his Blackpool Rock,was an ex boxer? Seems apt for a “sports website”, no? Not very bright the Reform chaps on this site What,what.

Peter Johnson would not back Joe Royle in the transfer market in Spring 1997.

21-10-2026 — 8-32pm John K are you sure the old Greatie Market had finished before 1995? The new one further along Greatie never opened ‘til October 2012.

Scott, “Anything else is just the manipulation of our fanbase for gain.” Manipulation? Or being offered a choice? No one is being forced to gamble. Some people enjoy gambling, some despise it, some suffer terribly for it. And a host in between. I have no idea if the numbers could even show this but the site is currently provided free to anyone who wants to read it, so the ‘gain’ if, it can be quantified is to the users of the site, is it not?

21-10-26 —8-20pm Michael I think that goal would have been faster if Stuart had put the ball in the net instead of hitting the bar with his shot, then again all’s well that ends well!

In fairness Tony, Mr Brightside did try to confuse them…..

I really thought this trophy would be the springboard to the next golden era, like the cup win in 1984… what went wrong?

Thought you might like this John https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/guardian-apology-founder-slavery-b2309490.html#:~:text=The%20Guardian%20has%20issued%20an%20apology%20after%20uncovering,connected%20to%20transatlantic%20slavery%2C%20along%20with%20his%20backers. It’s a good read mate since you’re bringing politics to a sports website tally ho, what

Fair enough John, I was about 18 and it was the only Greatie I knew.

Jimmy the real Greatie Market had long gone by 1995 mate

Too fast on reaction from me Mark. Apologies. Ive seen most teams in full matches on Sky. Not the same as live but easy to see that are all full of the go forward style that we are not. All down to the manager

Personally I would tell Jimmy Garner he has to play RB until January when hopefully we get a quality RB who can play in a flat back 4 and provide quality going forward.This would then release Hackney to give us some more legs in MF.

Another “I’m a match goer, I know better than you” 4 season tickets Mark so you know where you can insert that comment.

“I cannot fathom this eternal love-in when people talk about Moyes in the press. They always, without fail tak about the “wonders” he has done at Everton.” They’re not talking about Moyes. They’re talking about the state of Everton Football Club.
