  • Annika and Steve Brown, sorry if my use of the word 'gobshite' upset you. It wasn't aimed at anyone in particular but as you both responded I guess I touched a nerve? Oh yeah, Steve, I've seen your posts saying I never comment about football. I just didn't realise I was in the rarified company of so many knowledgeable experts here when I regularly read posts like 'Just f*** off Moyes' after any slightly disappointing result. So thanks for your advice, but nah, you can keep it. ...

  • Based on the league, I think Everton is conference league at best. Roma look like they could get champions league or europa, unless they tail off. Last year the deadline for ownership to transfer to a blind trust was 1st march. That date has passed, and I assume didn't happen? - although the board without a friedkin, could have it in place....

  • If you can’t beat them join them, Derek? Was this the case with Bill Kenwright? Play the game and get everyone believing I’m doing a fantastic job getting plucky little Everton, punching above their weight. It’s worrying because after we beat Burnley, who let’s face it, were very poor last week, (I know you can only beat what’s in front of you) then listening to Moyes, getting interviewed after the game, then to hear him say that he thought the questions about our home results were boring, because he actually thinks we have been playing well at Bramley Moore. Some people were that bored that they were leaving the ground at half time but the very experienced manager knows better and believes we have actually been playing well at home? If David, is going to be turning into a gamekeeper, then god help the people who are looking for a bit of entertainment, although the people looking for stability will obviously see it differently. I just hope he was just being very ...

  • Not that it's been officially, even vaguely officially suggested, but for me the key part of this article is this... "At Roma, Ranieri moved upstairs, but Gasperini — a hugely experienced coach with a brilliant record at Atalanta — was brought in. And Gasperini, a bit like Moyes at times (albeit, Moyes is more reserved) is not afraid to lash out if needed. Gasperini has made no secret of his unhappiness over some of Roma’s transfer business, and he equally did not shy away from bemoaning the “regrets” the team must have over their missed opportunities this season" People rarely change, they just get more so, If you move Moyes 'upstairs' in to the DoF role in all but name, you will get cautious policies, he will target his type of players...or even worse hire cautious clones of himself as Coach And if we do get an a Coach with an ounce of dash and elan...I'll not call them a manager on here because all the 'Managing' will be done 'upst...
