If we dont sign a name player eg; Moutinho then Im afraid I wont be paying to watch EFC this season..Im not putting up with lies and lack of ambition any longer..Talk of quality is a smokescreen..quality in this clubs eyes is the likes of taking injury prone or ageing players off the payroll of other clubs by loan systems..Smith, Bullard, Tiago etc etc etc. No more rubbish for me..

Totaly agree with you Andy. I don?t see why we could not have replaced the departed players with free/loan or cheap signings so at least we would have experienced prem players coming into the team, instead of hoping youngsters can make the step up. George Boateng would have been an ideal replacement for Lee Carsley whilst Moyes sought a long term replacement. Chris Eagles can play on either wing and left Man U very cheap- a better alternative than VDM surely! Oliver Kappo is a decent player too who could have been signed. Even if people do not agree they must surely see that Moyes/ Everton have a weakness in the transfer market. We have let Stubbs and Mc fadden leave with no replacement and then compounded that by letting Carsley and johnson leave, again with no replacement. Throw in sending Fernandes and Gravesen back without recruiting any oher loan players and you have just made a small squad about 6 players lighter!!! I fear for this season I really do.

On a train to Birmingham on business and I hear 2 West Brom fans talking about the match this Saturday. This is what was said: Fan 1 ?What do you reckon the score will be this saturday?? Fan 2: ?Oh we should be beating teams like Everton, I wouldn't've been saying that last season but their shit this season, did you see them against Blackburn? I'd never heard of any of their subs and even some of the people who started!! I'm more worried about playing Sunderland than that lot! Should be 2-0 or 3-0 or I?ll be disappointed!!?

This was from a West Brom fan!! I've never felt so depressed in my life! I would've felt better if I'd had my Everton shirt on cos I would've known he was just trying to wind me up but I didn't and there was no way he could've thought I was an Everton fan! I feel so embarrassed that that is what fans of a shit club like West Brom think of us now.

Get ready for once the transfer window closes and we hear the same old favourite words from Moyes ’adveristy’ siege metality’ blah blah blahh..
Its always the same with Moyes..
He doesnt like working with a big squad just as every season we are told if we finish in the top six we shouldnt really have done it because it was beyond our expectations..
Its a joke now..

Agreed Andy, I believe that if were going to get anyone we would have by now.

But, I don’t necessarily think it’s the end of our season if we can find a way to galvanise the team, who must be demoralised to be honest.

No idea how they could galvanise though. A dodgy derby refereeing decision perhaps.

Yes, I agree. So lets go and burn Goodison, and get it over and done with. After all, most people seem to think we are completely fucked.

But even more crazy, some silly buggers actually think we should SUPPORT the team in a time of crisis. They think we should actually do our best to show our grit and determination, and let the players know that we stand as one with them, as its not their fault we are in this situation. We are in a mess, so why should we help when its not our fault? After all, whinging, complaining and destroying the last hints of confidence make things better, right?

So lets keep sharpening the knives, and further enhance the already saturated cloud of doom surrounding EFC at the moment. One game in and the "damage is already done."

Dan Brierley....every year at least one person spouts this crap...support the team...stop whinging and/or complaining...stop destroying the players confidnce. it’s not their fault blah blah fucking blah.
Well mate I SUPPORT the team by buying my season ticket, new strips for me & my kids every year(3 by the way this year come October), spending my hard earned cash on travelling home & abroad, shouting & singing until I have no voice left like some sort of Everton junkie and have done so for many, many years....!!

Well Isn’t it time the team and more importantly THE CLUB gave us something to SUPPORT !!
I’m sick to fuckin death of being treated like a fuckin idiot by Kenwright and the rest of the morons who run this club. They are taking the piss big time because they know we’ll all be there home & away in England and in Europe ( not for long this season !!) every fuckin week....Now is the time to take a stand against the financial mismanagement, massive disappointments and bearfaced LIES that we, THE SUPPORTERS, have been subjected to time & time again over the last few years.
’WATCH THIS SPACE...’ were his words, loud & clear for all to hear on national, no INTERNATIONAL television....!!
Well I’ve been watching ever since and guess what the ’space’ is still as EMPTY as ever...just like Billy Bullshit’s promises !!
Playing kids & full backs in midfield and not having a meaningful subs bench is what you’ll find any Sunday morning in parks up and down the country and its NOT FUCKING GOOD ENOUGH !!
For my money, being completely out played for the majority of the game at home by an also-ran like Blackburn IS the fault of the Players & the Manager...who else is to fuckin blame ??
Whilst people spout this ’ lets all stick together ...we are EVERTON shite ’ Kenwright will never bring in any meaningful investment and we will never move forward..well I’ve had enough !!
Me & my mrs have been together 15yrs and if she’d have let me down even half as much and made as many empty promises as Everton have during that time I’d have fucked he off LONG AGO !!
Tomorrow for the first time I will not be at The Hawthornes. For me & my lad to go would cost nearly £100 for just tickets and travel not including food and ale money...well fuck it they’re not having my money anymore. It’ll kill me but I’m NOT GOING !!
They do not show us any respect, they have made us a laughing stock ONCE AGAIN and this time ENOUGH IS ENOUGH !!

Moyes has said it all today - to compete at the top you now need BIG MONEY . He and Bill obviously thought back in May that their £10-15m would get them 2-3 quality players (50% down now rest later), and add a couple of loanees and a Championship gem . Come June/July they realised that they were playing in a different transfer league with new price of £15-£20m per player, and they hadnt researched it and were shodked by the the process. They still havent recovered in time and in the meantime Villa , Sunderland et al hhave concentrated on the £4-8m Englisg gems.

Goodnight Everton !!!

I’m with you Nelly Blythe. I stopped giving Kenwright my money after the Rooney sale / Fortress Funds bullshit. In return, I come on here and get called redshite or a traitor or not a real fan.
Thats utter bullshit. How does me not handing over my cash to a fucking lying buffoon like our chairman constitute treachery? Common sense is what I call it. Has me not forking over my hard earned put us in the mess we’re in today?
The situation we are in now, face it, is absolutely fucking ridiculous. We have signed nobody. The manager is effectively refusing to sign his contract. We’ve a sixteen year old in midfield. The club meets fans increasingly panicked calls for new signings with a deafening silence. And now the manager comes out and basically warns that if nobody comes in then the shows over. ""There is a good possibility we won’t get anyone, and if that happens I don’t think we could get through to January"

I honestly don’t know how people continue to give their money - and its more and more every year - in return for the shite they have to put up with - and its more and more every year.
Every piece of "success" Everton have had in recent years under David Moyes {and we haven’t reached a final, let alone won a trophy!} has been despite the ownership of the club; certainly not because of it. Kenwright has not moved the club forward one iota. Not one inch, in any direction except backwards. In many areas we’ve regressed significantly, and in other areas made none or next to no progress. Football standing still is effectively going backwards anyway; many other clubs don’t rest on their laurels quite like we seem to do.
The season we had our "magnificent seventh", we failed to strengthen at the January window - from memory we added only Brian McBride - and fell out of the European placings {once again from memory} on the very last day of the season. An opportunity spurned - or squandered?
Then we defied the odds to finish fourth. One of the biggest opportunities in the clubs recent history to receive a major cash windfall and re-establish a profile amongst the top European clubs. It would have been nice to have signed Yakubu, or a player of similiar quality in the summer preceding the crucial qualifier...but we didn’t and we fell just short. Another opportunity gone.
And now we arrive at the here and now, and it really feels like another opportunity is about to go straight through our fingers through pure fuckwittery by Kenwright. With a soon to be out of contract manager though, this might be the last one for a long time he does get to squander.
