  Mike Gaynes in Dominic Calvert-Lewin's form shows the risk Everton took
• Brian #10, why does it matter if our reclusive owner comes to a game or not? Some just don't. Arsenal, City, the RS and the Skunks are others I can think of whose owners are always no-shows. Hasn't seemed to have hurt them. For me I care a lot more about how well Dan Friedkin supports the club with his checkbook than with his face in the owners' box. ...
  Mike Gaynes in Chief executive Angus Kinnear talks winter transfer window and progress so far
• " we will avoid short-term fixes that will weaken our hand for phase two of our rebuild next summer." To me, THAT'S the most important sentence, not the broken-glass one. Everybody knows what we need, but despite the frustration up top and at right back, we're not in any kind of desperate shape (barring further injuries), and the January shop window is famously overpriced. Kinnear saying that phase 2 of the rebuild will take place next summer, rather than next month, suits me just fine. That's when we'll find out if the recruitment committee has a plan and knows its job. Not in January. ...

• If this ace recruitment team leaves us with Barry and Beto and no new right-back come February 1 there would be no words. Well there would, but you know what I mean. ...
  Paul Griffiths in Chief executive Angus Kinnear talks winter transfer window and progress so far
• Ho hum (45) and so it goes on from he who will not be contradicted or corrected. Responding to posts from said poster on a thread when said post is quite frankly open to question - as some have pointed out, some more than once - is erm 'compulsive attention'. You need to do better than that Mr. G., and that might include answering questions put to you by me and others on one of the not infrequent times when you post xxxxxx and you hide in silence. ...
  Paul Griffiths in Dominic Calvert-Lewin's form shows the risk Everton took
• Jim #49, I don't understand. Why don't we have time? We're not in relegation danger, and we're not close to the CL, so what's the rush? I understand the emotional urgency to Win Something, but building a real contending team with expensive top players takes time, money and room to maneuver under SCR limitations. Everton now have plenty of the first two. We have no idea how much of the third. I know lots of folks disagree, but I say the last 30 years have been rendered irrelevant. The old owners are gone. Goodison is discarded. Know your history, but don't wallow in it. We are starting fresh under wealthy, apparently competent ownership in a spectacular new stadium. It's a full restart, a control/alt/delete. Roll with that. Don't stop thinking about tomorrow Don't stop, it'll soon be here It'll be better than before Yesterday's gone, yesterday's gone ...
