  • I hope the owners are seriously considering a change of manager at Everton. While Moyes has done extremely well to bring Everton up to this position (10th as on today), the damaging result over the weekend, and subsequent wins by Brighton, Bournemouth and Brentford have seen them leap-frog us in the table. While Moyes is a good steady hand, I don't think he will take us much forward in the present modern age of football. He should be thanked and given a good send-off, but time to move on. Somebody on another thread had listed down 15 trophy-winning managers who will become available in the summer. Keep sentiments aside and make decisions that take the club forward. Like Bournemouth did a couple of seasons ago, when they sacked Gary O'Neil who had dragged them away from the doors of relegation. They ruthlessly replaced him with Iraola, and they have reaped the benefits of that stone cold decision. Do TFG have it in them to take the club forward?...

  • I think Jim @9 may have meant something other than “abandonment for defending“ and it’s the Edit button which is still causing a problem on some phones. Perhaps “abandonment of defending”?I think Eric said his Samsung was an issue. I’m going to check out my iPhone….Well, it seems to work okay with my iPhone, even though the Edit button sits on top of the text… not ideal....

  • 72 points Roberto Martinez got us. A total David can only dream of. Moyes has nowhere near that total in 12 years of trying. ...

  • Ian, I can't remember an injured player coming back " on schedule"..Ill be amazed and thankful is he is available in August. That of course doesn't allow for the inevitable " set back" in his recovery.So when the new season starts, I can see Tarkowski and Keane being partnered by Jake O’Brien at the back. Oh hang on… that would mean we'd have to get off our arses and buy a right-back though. Seamus..come on down !...

  • Funny really. Martinez, who was very heavily criticised for leaving things to the "recruitment team" while he swanned off to do a bit of moonlighting as a TV pundit for the world cup gets criticised for "his" signings. While Moyes has admitted he was responsibe ALL signings, gets exonerated by his disciples who like to blame a "recruitment team" that hadnt been assembled yet. Are there no lengths to which they wont go ? 170M and the guy who makes a point of saying he has final say on ALL signings has nothing to do with it. ...
