  • Liam, Yep, there\'s been a few of them false new dawns over the years. I think we were a striker away from really going to the next level under Joe Royle when we had that team with players like Kanchelskis, and Gary Speed. I remember we went for Collymore and missed out on him to Liverpool. Who knows if he\'d have done the business for us but he was one of the best strikers in the league at Forest.rnrnYeah, I totally agree with you on Ndiaye that sometimes it feels like style over substance, but I guess that\'s why we attach the maverick tag to players like him. You may be right too that after years of seeing rubbish football he\'s given us some of the excitement that we\'ve been starved of for years. rnrnrn...

  • Erm Mr. Carr, what is the point of a record spend if it is largely unsuccessful? Is that hard for you to see? My train set is bigger than yours. Our church\'s steeple is now higher than St. Mary\'s next door. Spending big is boss and makes us look xxxxx.rnrn\'Spec savers\' lad! My \'part\' was \'triumphant\'?rnrnDon\'t make a statement about big sponds if you do not want it to be critiqued. rnrnHere\'s something for you to slobber over:rnrnhttps://www.facebook.com/MSP.Football.Troll/photos/young-david-Moyes-d/234717633358412/rn...
    Paul Griffiths in “They told me that it wouldn’t have any effect” — Moyes insists Everton transfer plans stay on track despite Burnley verdict
  • You\'re right thats its subjective Gavin. I get that. But not seen many, if any, be more exciting when he got the ball as an Everton player than Rooney. Thought he was somewhat less exciting at Man Utd after being shoehorned all over the pitch, because he had so many strengths rnrnPersonally I see Ndiaye as more style over substance really. Although after years and years of average players, he is undoubtedly exciting.rnrnKanchelskis was great though for 18 months. I thought he signalled a new dawn for us. Sadly it wasnt to be. A missed opportunity back then....

  • So John (36), as usual you are looking on the bright side. You’re doing no more than speculating as no-one has a scooby what the transfer budget will be this summer, whether this £40m will affect it, and whether we may even win the appeal anyway. In which case the whole thing is a moot point. So no, I’m not wrong. I’m the one who stated one simple fact. ...
    Jimmy Carr in “They told me that it wouldn’t have any effect” — Moyes insists Everton transfer plans stay on track despite Burnley verdict
  • Where did I say it was a triumphant window exactly Paul? John mentioned an underfunded transfer budget, I pointed out the size of the budget last year. The ‘triumphant’ part is your own invention. Do you need to go to spec savers or something?...
    Jimmy Carr in “They told me that it wouldn’t have any effect” — Moyes insists Everton transfer plans stay on track despite Burnley verdict
  • Les, I've qualified and explained my opinion. It seems you can't other than to say Rooney was more exciting because it was Wayne Rooney. My original post also wasn't on who was the better player. Its on the "excitement" watching a player. If someone finds watching one player more exciting than the other, they cannot be wrong because excitement is a subjective feeling and emotion, giving them an opinion personal to them. Do not tell someone how they feel or felt about something. Time for you to leave it there, Les....
