  • Haha @ 88, yes according to Matt Hughes, the world’s biggest bullshitter about Everton. He has claimed at various times that the club would go into administration, the stadium would not be completed, it would be over-budget by £150 million, our premier league rivals would sue us for £373 million and the British government was investigating the 777 offer. He got made redundant from the Daily Mail and has now washed up in the Guardian. In fact, he writes non-stop bullshit which is probably why you like him. ...
    Steve Brown in Why Jordan Pickford is the Premier League’s most overlooked world-class goalkeeper
  • The people still bashing Moyes, are likely the same ones who were decrying him (for many of the same reasons) when he last brought us back from the brink and heralded in our must successful period since the 80s. Back then he built a squad from buttons that was in the top seven 8 times out of his 11 full seasons (1x4th, 2x 5th, 2x6th and 3x7th - these days all likely European spots), and had only one relegation challenging 17th early on in that period (03/04). In his second coming, he has already steered us away from several years of flirting with the drop once more to a mid-table finish In his first part-season and is on track for a European challenge once again. To be honest, given where we've been for most of the decade he was away, I think this is reason enough to build the guy a statue never mind trying to get him out. I'm not for a minute trying to say we should be happy with 7th place finishes as a club, but there's got to be some context for where we've ACTUALLY ...
    Chris James in David Moyes: Manager for the future or Temporary Placeholder?
  • Interesting Philip. Moyes reckons he missed a lot of his targets because he couldn’t offer them European football, so maybe he’s going to sign a load of experienced players and hopefully turn us into the Nottingham Forest team, that won the league and two European cups....
    Tony Abrahams in Why Jordan Pickford is the Premier League’s most overlooked world-class goalkeeper
  • Yes, Raymond @ 78 they sure are far too vindictive for far too much of the time. As many have already stated. If they tone it down a bit then they won’t get it in return. It’s very simple. JC : Still standing, Johnny boy, still standing. Respect due to you, though, having a cage fighter for a missus must be fun, right? Oh and by the way, lads and lasses, I’m reading in the Guardian that the Friedkins are planning to offer Moyes a new contract in the summer. Apparently, “any new contract for Moyes is likely to be accompanied by giving the manager a greater say over recruitment”. Enjoy the rest of your day😁...

  • Ryan, They can add a stability clause into the contract. And a no pressure to win trophies clause. ...
    John Collins in James Garner and David Moyes nominated for Premier League monthly awards
  • Eric. It means nothing if he says he wants to go. Just means we are in a good position to negotiate a good fee. Already been around few clubs, so hopefully he's found his home. ...
