  • Brian (14) I said at the time when Dwight was getting loads of stick off plenty of fans that Moyes would use him and need him during the rest of the season, he needed him for the last two games because he knows he can trust him to do a good job up and down the field and he definitely doesn’t trust Dibling and George is an attacking player although he deserves more than the paltry few minutes he got the other night particularly with Dwight tiring after the shift he put in. The training ground is there to get them fit no matter how they perform, Alcaraz and Rhol haven’t been treated right by Moyes after playing well where it counts on the field, his favourites and experience comes first with him, youngsters are mostly picked when he has no other options or played out of position like Armstrong and Alcaraz, oe even Rhol when it comes down to it....
    Dave Abrahams in Dwight McNeil earns the adulation of his manager and teammates after Burnley display
  • Alan (2) The way the results are topsy turning and the pressure getting to a lot of clubs chasing the top five placings we just might win those games with no pressure at all on us. I hope we don’t make a European place for next season— we are not ready or equipped for it and our premier league placing will suffer if we do....

  • I doubt there was any Blue fan who would have picked McNeil for the Newcastle game and most thought by picking him Moyes had lost the plot. I think it tells us a lot about Moyes that despite him willing to sell McNeil to Palace, when it fell through most of us thought we wouldn't see him in a Blue shirt again, and some of his performances this season haven't been great. But when asked by the press why he had picked McNeil he simply said he has been terrific on the training ground, and the message to those not getting picked was, if I can pick someone I was prepared to sell becaus eof his effort on the training ground then som eof you need to learn the lesson. Because of his performance against Newcastle he was selected for the Burnley game and quite rightly came off to a standing ovation, and maybe the manager deserves a lot of credit for this as well....

  • I think not only are people leaving early if you look around for the start of the 2nd half there are loads of empty seats. I know some people have lifts arranged and certainly the lack of forethought by the club and the City council to have had a better structure in place for parking then things might have been better. Closing roads off Gt Howard Street has caused a lot of problems. Who decided to close these roads was definitely not a match going fan. So we end up with all traffic having to use Gt Howard Street so is it any wonder it takes so long to get home after a game. But in reality as long as 52,000 of us are pilling into the ground every week the club aren't worried how long it takes you to get home. I see we have played more Monday night games than any other lub that doesnt help....

  • I think Dwight McNeil has always been very under rated by Everton fans while other players are over hyped and when I look at McNeil and Grealish they typify the reactions of some Everton fans to me....
