• Best time of the year to be a Blue, no games to worry about, not worrying about how we are doing will we be in a relegation fight again Just a great 3 months of absolutely no stress brilliant. We have Royal Ascot coming up as well as the Derby, For us golf nuts we have the US Open and of course the OPEN at Birkdale, I am marshalling again this year a real treat. We have the World Cup and a fortnight away in the sun in Portugal. But then the stress and worry kicks in as we start a new season....

• We have Garner and KDH that we can say are starters in the midfield. Signing Hackney would just stop Armstrong from developing, unless he goes on loan to Middlesbrough as part of the deal. And we still have Tim and Alcaraz and Rohl. Wasting time on a player we don\'t need. Just go and get some bloody FULL BACKS....

• Dave (104) also hard to disagree with your assessment of Moyes. He was what we needed 18 months ago, but now we need something else if we\'re going to do anything like actually move forward and progress. The thing is, if he somehow gets us into Europe next season, they might extend his contract! rnrnSee you in purgatory. ...

• Good luck getting a game. Why would he want to come to a club where young players vanish into the ether? ...

• I don\'t know much about this player, but mid-field is one area where we seem well stocked: Gueye, Garner, Dewsbury-Hall, Alcaraz, Rohl, Iroegbunam, Armstrong. Neil (10) makes a good point about needing a footballing midfielder, and I agree. But Armstrong seems to have the necessary attributes to develop into that role. Here is what I found from Google Gemini about PNE fans about Armstrong:rnrn\"High Energy and Work Ethic: Fans frequently praised Armstrong for \'wearing his heart on his sleeve\' and bringing an infectious work rate to the midfield.rnTechnical Proficiency: Supporters noted his quick-thinking, sharp passing, and ability to open up defenses. He even endeared himself to fans by chipping in with crucial goals, such as his impressive performance in December.rnMixed Reactions to Departure: His recall to Everton in January was seen as a massive blow to Preston\'s midfield, with many PNE fans openly wishing he could have remained to help with their Championshi...

• Jimmy (103) I can’t disagree with a lot of your post Jimmy but Moyes must be one of the luckiest managers in the game where Everton are concerned with those eleven and a half years first time round and another 18 months up to now, at his very best Jimmy I thought he was no more than an average manager and he has continued to be that same manager throughout his career and earned(?) an enormous amount of money being that average manager— and yes there are more problems besides Moyes to worry about.rnrnBeing a Catholic I expect a couple of hundred years knocked off my time in Purgatory, when I snuff it, for being persecuted in this life, by being an Evertonian!...
