Heard a strange rumour today. Apparently Everton are in such financial trouble that they are having problems paying players' wages. Could be why the team seem so unsettled...

Where did you hear this?
"Having problems paying players' wages"?
I can understand this as I too would have huge problems paying their wages.
"Here you go Mikel, here's this weeks cheque for seventy thousand nicker (goes to hand it over, then pulls it back and rips it to shreds) fuck, I just can't do it!!"

Where from Ken....not the neighbour's dog again....or the fella who fixes the fridges at Finch Farm?
Tom are you related to 'Jimmy Two Times' from Goodfellas?
"Goin' to get the papers..get the papers"

What utter nonsense ! That money is ring-fenched & the cheques will be in the bank in the morning.
Where do people get such daft ideas about our well run club ?

Could be a 'Carry On' thing here.

I think our finances are even worse than most of could imagine.
Hi Ken. Here's a suggestion: if you think the source of these rumours is reliable, send the details in confidence to Lyndon and Michael and let them make an assessment which they can then endorse, without revealing the source. Or not, of course!
Oh the privileges of running the website!!

Of course, one other reason why the team is unsettled could be because we are playing one-dimensional football, slow build up every time, played out to the wings for a high cross to be lobbed in with the hope of somebody getting a head on the end of it, but since we are so slow, the opposing defence just heads it away... etc etc
I think our finances are a lot worse than we are led to believe, how can there be any other explanation of a £1m summer transfer kitty? (although we must have that £78M Kirkby money tucked away in the drawer somewhere). However I don't believe we can't pay the wages.......not just yet anyway.
Eugene (5) "Your a funny guy"
Ken whatever your source is get them to post it on wikileaks (in Swedish)
EG at number 5 - fantastic. I wish I had said that.
Jon at Number 12 - Whaddaya mean, funny?
No, I am asking you, whaddaya mean, funny?

Dan, "you know, just funny you know how to tell a story, what?"
Does this mean were not gonna sign Scott Dann? Gutted!!!
Stephen, no, we're gonna sign Tommy from Goodfellas as a midfield general! Believe me not a lot of opposition will argue with him.
Ha ha ha.
Jon do you know what it is - that double-post thing - coz I often get it but have no clue why?
(and I always feel a bit of a twat)

Chris (15) I think you'll agree that if anyone of our friends on this site have never seen "Goodfellas" then they need to see it and soon.
I really envy anyone who have never seen this film. The first time is just so off the planet.

Eugene, the only thing I can think of is that you are distracted by a really great bogey that you are trying to extract and dont realise how many left hand clicks you are giving your mouse.
Stephen #18, Scott Dann made the Yahoo fuck up of the week compilation, no pressure whatsoever he managed to back pass it out for a throw in on the other side of the pitch

Ken is right, Mikel downed his tools today and never turned up at Everton 2 for a signing session, Moyes's filled in.
I also saw Victor signing on for benefits, on the basis that he going to be at least £10k short next year than he wanted.
Baines, Heitinga and Jagielka are also moving on as they will be short.
But don't worry: Hibbert, Vaughan, Yobo and Ossie will all be available shortly.

Right i'm off. It's tea time. Having tea with Julian Assange. I will of course inform him that he needs to buy the whole of Barcelona and import to Goodison in the form of a wave file.
Me an Jules we go back a long way.

Jon,

And Santa is playing left back, with Rudolph and Prancer in the middle! For fuck's sake looks like the silly season is starting early! Wot with that cheating Argie bastard Maradona primed to be the next Blackburn manager! I need a lie down!
If we cant pay the wages now wait till the gates drop to 20000 then we'll see some fun.
75,000 a week my arse.

Dickileaks but its one of those things that come with old age.
Well, if your going to make stuff up....go hog wild.
Even if Bk couldn't get us into that position....could he? I mean ground moves, I accept, but not paying the players?

an here's me thinkin it was the Christmas season! WRONG! it's obviously silly season.............
Come on, this is not Pompey! I think this sort of rumour is merely indicative of the generaly depressed state we're in. Nothing that a win at Scunny can't cure, though!;-)
"Having problems paying players' wages"?
I can understand this as I too would have huge problems paying their wages.
"Here you go Mikel, here's this weeks cheque for seventy thousand nicker (goes to hand it over, then pulls it back and rips it to shreds) fuck, I just can't do it!!"
