• Thanks for spotting this, Paul. Still so sad to think of the loss to his wife, family and friends. ...
  Michael Kenrick in Club set to unveil the Gary Speed Memorial Bench
• To address just one of those “waste of space” posts. The catering at HD on match days IS of interest to those on here that go the match. Why should they miss out on news because it’s of no interest to those that don’t? Theres no reason really to comment on the article but it’s still worthy of a news item connected with the club. In hindsight, no pun intended, I should’ve just read and digested the RL article without comment but a massive Wigan fan wound me up, as they do. Btw PH - I’ve got a great story about that Boro away if we ever meet up…...

• Agree on the number of articles Steve, and they are sometimes a bit 'samey' but there does seems to be a bit more stats in some of them which is good. I guess more articles, although of lower quality, brings more clicks to the site....

• It was always a good balance between Lyndon and Michael in their editorial approach - Lyndon more balanced and Michael more polemic and interacting with the posters. Michael has done a great job at explaining the changes in the site and trying to keep the posters engaged. Honestly, I only read and comment on the articles penned by Michael as they are written by an Evertonian with a clear point of view based on deep knowledge of the club, its culture and history. On the number of articles. If comments are spread across too many articles which are variations on the same topic or game, it can make it difficult to get a decent debate or exchange of views going between posters. Overall, the site seems to be getting its stability back after multiple changes and the new layout. Michael has been fundamental to that. ...

• Eric, I feel for you, we're blessed in the US with Peacock/NBC for I think $9.99 a month for all games. ...
  Paul Griffiths in Everton vs Newcastle United: Preview, Predicted Lineups and Where to Watch
• Brent/Paul I agree. Michael spent 30 years building up this site on his own dime. It got bigger and more time and resource consuming than I assume he and Lyndon were willing or able to handle so they handed it off and one of them is still here trying his best to preserve it as it was. It’s a bit rich for malcontents who haven’t posted on here in years to pop back up sticking the knife in. It also raises the question as to why said malcontent keeps posting lately if the site is as bad as he describes? I know from personal experience running websites is expensive, time consuming and stressful. I don’t always agree with Michael’s posts but were it not for him none of us would be here posting today. Give the guy a break. ...
