You’d think that if Liverpool finished 3rd and have a right back worth £22 million and a right midfielder worth £20 million and if Tottenham finished mid table with a £9 million right back and a £17 million right midfielder, that us being in between should have a right midfielder worth £18 million and an right back worth £14 million but instead we have Osman and Hibbert worth a combined £800k.

If only Kenwright had worked a little harder to have them included in the Lescott deal, we might have got a cool million for the pair.

Hibbert has his faults, but had a good season last year until the Cup Final. In fact, fans of other clubs I know rate Osman very highly for his close skills and goals. He isn’t the strongest, but that’s where team work comes in. Bigger players need to make the space for him to operate in.

How is your (and others) sniping at them helping anybody?

Once again, we enter the last few days of the Transfer Window with a squad as thick as a Rizla. Not only are we losing a central defender in Lescott but also cover for Baines.

People argue we wait every season for the Sky money before making our purchases... yet another excuse!!!! Has he not considered the vast number of players available on a free?

He bemoans that new players must be of the standard of the first team, but surely every squad in the Premier League doesn't have 20-odd players of the same standard??? DM look in the mirror, every May see who is out on contract in July and take a punt. I personally would have had no qualms in seeing Sylvinho, Ball, Neill, Kovac, Pennant, Maniche or Seitaridis added to our squad. If he was prepared and sealed possibly 2 Bosmans in July we would then not be panicking like we do every season.

I am aware these players may not whet the fans appetite but all would provide adequate cover when required. So DM please learn from your mistakes and ensure this is the last of the transfer scrambles we have become accustomed too.

1) In a bid to prove that Everton can take advantage of marketing/finance opportunities, the club have announced that ticket prices for home games will be doubled for all seats with restricted views.

2) After months of abuse and criticism, Bill Kenwright has stated that he has finally had enough and is to sell the club immediately. He confirmed that he is about to enter negotiations with a UAE consortium headed up by Sheik Rattleandroll.

3) Following the Ever Banega fiasco, and looking to distance himself from the growing controversy, Everton owner Bill Kenwright explained to Sky Sports News that the battery in his transfer countdown clock needed replacing and he had in fact asked Moyes to go out and buy an Ever Ready.

4) Looking to offer an explanation as to what went wrong with the Senderos transfer, Kenwright claimed that everything was going to plan until Senderos discovered at the last minute that he wouldn't be walking the perimeter dishing out Everton mints but was expected to play in the team.

5) Club sources have strongly denied the rumour that, given the teams now customary slow start to every campaign, Chang have finally given up and withdrawn sponsorship though a new deal has been secured for the start of next season with Sanatogen.

I don't have the direct quote but was basically, after being asked why he did not sign for a Premier League club, was that "Behind the scenes many clubs in the Premier League are a disorganised shambles... you would be shocked if you saw it... they are all over the place... managers want to sign you but chairmen/board members object."

Whether or not we went for Campbell, however, I imagine we would, a free transfer, for 1-2 years, highly experienced and respected professional who would offer cover at centre back (i.e. a Stubbs replacement), his statement would certainly ring true with what many of us suspect at Goodison Park with the current administration.

Come on, let's vent our hatred of Bill some more, you know you want to...
