  • Jimmy, I recall we signed a certain right back called Seamus Coleman in January 2000 for a bargain fee. That worked out okay. There will be options at right-back in the market on a loan, loan to buy or permanent basis. My concern in that TFG are ignoring the urgent issue right in front of them because they have a long-term plan - as Mike Tyson said “everyone has a plan until they get punched in the face.” No point planning to renovate the house next summer when the wall has just fallen down. ...

  • Ask West Ham supporters did they do the right thing in getting Moyes the sack. Sacking is easy, finding someone better is the hard part. Some managers drop on a squad just at the best time and appear to be better than they actually are- look at Potter. Franks who I do like is struggling now at Spurs. I think its hard to know very often how good a manager actually is. If he has a squad of good players and they gel together they make the manager look good....

  • George #129 I don’t know where you’re going with the mind boggles about buying a full back, and our troubles will be over. My point is, there’s comments on here not to rush in and wait until the summer to buy a right back, we need a full back for the last 2 years, so we should bring in one now, I don’t know what you’re watching the last few seasons....

  • Stu@3, couldn't have put it better myself. Imagine being managed by Moyes when your 19, leave home and living in a new area. Moyes is maddening. His tactics and treatment of players are pre war....

  • D.Moyes is an old fashioned coach whose team selection and style is predictable and will not change. He is also stubborn and does not believe his tactics are wrong, even though it does not matter who Everton are playing. He is past his retirement date and I believe he was brought in to do what he achieved and that was to stabilize the club in its transfer to the new stadium. We have a brand new modern stadium that needs fresh thinking. D.Moyes is the past not the future, he has good players that play in a poor squad but his set up and game plan is predictable and that will not change There is no doubt that over his career he has been successful but like every one of us age takes its toll. Move over D.M.like everyone else age takes its toll, and a modern facility needs a fresh approach...

  • Steve (122), if we have identified a right back, no idea if we have, the selling club will want more in January because it’s mid-season. I agree it needs sorting but I can understand us not shelling out silly money right now. That’s how we got into our financial mess in the first place. We’re not going down so we might just have to suck it up, not ideal obviously. ...
