ToffeeWeb Family!

I'm far away from the auspices of Everton Football Club in terms of geogaphical position as I live in India, but in spirit I feel like I'm at Goodison so often thanks to the columnists and contributors to ToffeeWeb.
The highs and lows that we share together help me reinforce the feeling that there is no better group of supporters. I have supported Everton for just over 20 years now and after finding ToffeeWeb last year, my experience has been enhanced greatly. From Lyndon and Michael, who are in charge, to columnists like Ken Buckley, Jim Hourigan and many others who contribute to TW in various ways... I am thankful to you all.
We have had a bad summer with none of our projected signings materialising and as a result we made a poor start to the season. We have had doubts over the tenure of David Moyes. We have battled over the stadium issue. At the end of the year when we saw City taken over by rich people and managers rotate clubs faster than a game of musical chairs, I appreciate what we have.
We have a strong foundation with a great manager and a nucleus of passionate players. We need quality badly in order to take the next step but, for now, we fight on with the resources we have. With the coverage of Premier League and FA Cup matches here in India, I am able to watch more of our games but I still don't get access to all of them and at those times I rely on my ToffeeWeb family for links to internet sites, score updates, comments, etc to keep me going. We don't always agree on issue and yet we are able to (at most times) accept others' views.
I would just like to wish all of the ToffeeWeb Family a Joyful and Peaceful Christmas from my family and myself... Cheers! !!!

Also, all you fellow Evertonians, wherever you are, and everyone at Toffeeweb, have a great Xmas.
Best wishes and compliments to the ToffeeWeb team who spend so much time in the background running this site FREE for the benefit of us all.
Also to all Evertonians although we?ve had disagreements over "Blue Bill?" "Kirkby" "Moysey" and the "players", every one is still a "blueblood" so best wishes to you all.

I am also removed from my beloved Everton FC in terms of geography but only by 200 miles in Wallsend (near Newcastle Upon Tyne) and I too think we are amongst the best supporters in football.
Incidentally, I am wondering where you are from in India as I will be there between 1 Feb and 4 March next year so let me know your whereabouts as we could possibly meet up!
In the meantime, here?s wishing you and yours and all Evertonians a very Merry Xmas.
