Time to scrap P&S Rules and reclaim our game

08/04/2024

The club voted in favour of the Profitability and Sustainability rules without consultation with the fans and now they’ve been burned by them. Even though it looks like we will stay up, we will still have to sell Onana by 30 June.  Wouldn’t it be a good idea to reject any new PSR proposals until […]

08/04/2024

Everton docked two more points for 2022-23 PSR breach

08/04/2024

Everton have been hit with a second sanction, with the latest Independent Commission into the Club’s breach of the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR) recommending that they be docked two more points.

What more can the man do?

07/04/2024

Up at the crack of sparrows and caught the coach in good time. A full double decker of 70 die- hards absolutely desperate for a win and the news that Gana was unavailable didn’t exactly ease my worries. I’m no big fan of his to be honest but with the way we have been playing […]

Poor game…but you take the win

07/04/2024

A poor game. But we won. And frankly at this stage, I don’t care how the points come, just so long as they come.

The Cup Final Voucher of the Sixties!

05/04/2024

I was in our local “antiques and collectables” market yesterday when I came across an old programme for Everton v Bristol Rovers, FA Cup Fifth Round Tie in February 1969. It immediately brought up some memories from when I was just 16, standing in the Gwladys Street. Firstly, the referee was Mr Maurice Fussy who […]

Everton vs Burnley

Late drama; never give in

03/04/2024

Total respect for Pickford. He didn’t rise to the bait he received from the home supporters. As well as the 3 great saves, he deserves the accolade for Everton’s Man of the Match for the way in which he conducted himself and blanked out the constant tirade of abuse –  as much as he did for the performance and saving us from defeat.

I was wrong…

02/04/2024

Months ago, Lyndon and Michael were kind enough to publish an article I wrote called Back to the Future, drunk on optimism following a (then) recent four-game winning run. It has not aged well. We are in a greater death spiral than the one which claimed the jobs of Rafael Benitez and Frank Lampard, with […]

Blues steal a point with Calvert-Lewin spot-kick

02/04/2024

Everton are on the road again for a trip to the northeast that looks daunting in view of the Blues' worsening form and the Magpies' stirring comeback against West Ham on Saturday.

Does it really matter?

01/04/2024

Relegation! Unless Premier League rules change, the Sky 5 piggies disappear off to feed in a European Super League trough, or we get an owner with money and sense, we are never going to win the Premier League. I’d say we have at best a 2% chance of qualifying for the Champions League in the […]

Newcastle United vs Everton

Late South Coast Woes

31/03/2024

Once again, the midfield was largely bypassed by the Pickford punts. I don’t want to bash him as he has saved us many times, but yesterday he was at fault. He could probably have taken the cross for the first.

Footballers v Athletes

31/03/2024

Our long winless run is a soul-destroying experience, and it’s not that long since Ancelotti’s false dawn saw us top the table with some scintillating football. Why is the football now so dire? Dyche will get blamed for hoofball tactics; others will point to the severely weakened playing staff after 3 years of negative investment and […]

Burnley (H) meet-up

29/03/2024

Back in January, in preparation for my maiden voyage to Goodison Park next week, I recounted my journey in becoming a true Blue. A good many of you responded with kind words, stories of your own, recommendations for my time on Merseyside, and offers to meet up and show me a good time upon my […]

Bournemouth vs Everton
