• Mark @16 Thats really nice to hear - having Googled him he worked with Angus at Leeds 2023-25 as a transfer advisor and previously at Newcastle, Celtic and WBA - serious background and hugely knowledgeable. So Angus has a big part to play in this with his Recruitment Team model. He likes to have deep experts in each area of the operation - hence a recruitment, deal maker and contract negotiator in Nick. They also appear to lend heavily on a call with Moyes and the targetted players as part of the process, which is nice to hear....
  Steve Jones in “You can see this is a club that wants to go in the right direction” — Brennan Johnson on why he chose Everton move
• I don’t really see that there should necessarily be an equivalence between what the players are happy to say publicly and what committed Evertonians believe. I don’t see David Moyes as inherently toxic for the players and there are indeed those who could well flourish under his rule. They are doing a job we would all love to have and getting very well compensated for having to deal with the agitation of the crowd when things don’t go well. If things really don’t pan out most will simply move on to something similar elsewhere. Most of us assume players are all desperate for trophies and accolades but I can’t be the only one who has heard of professional footballers who apparently don’t particularly enjoy playing but who aren’t liable to give up their very lucrative careers because of that. Some Everton fans are viewing DM as an unnecessary postponement of our rise back to greatness and so, very naturally, are frustrated whilst he is the incumbent. The current crop of pl...

• Steve @ 13 thanks for that. I met Hammond on a number of occasions when I worked in Reading and he\'s a nice fella, very personable, knows his stuff, a bright lad. I thought it was Kinnear behind this. This has restored my faith somewhat knowing NH is doing the business behind these deals...

• Steve@6rnrnYou make a fair point Steve, you don’t seem to hear too many negative thoughts about Moyes being here from potential players, quite the opposite it would seem. Credit where credit is due to Moyes and the recruitment team for this rather bizarre but welcome piece of business. Another couple of signings and there could be some humble pie being served up on the menu. ...
