    Mason Holgate...." Holgy"

    Played in short bursts, had ability but something was missing and it stopped him being able to replicate his best on a regular basis. However, as with all our former players who aren’t going to come back and haunt us I wish him well.

    Confirmed Signing Mark Travers

    Apart from retaining Braithwaite, making Alcaraz permanent, retaining Gueye and buying a centre forward for north of £27 million but I take your point.

    We have been to Italy but it was before she was diagnosed, thanks for the tip, we will have a look at Italy.

    Confirmed Signing Thierno Barry

    I have been sceptical about this transfer window, but my scepticism is born out of a lifetime of supporting this great club, we have recently been been somewhat lacking in the transfer market. This would appear to be a significant upgrade on what we have had in front of goal for a while however...

    Confirmed Signing Thierno Barry

    This is Everton,I won’t believe he is our player until he has played at least 10 games and has been injured at least twice.

    Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

    Imagine being a supporter of a club which identified their transfer targets, went out and bought them and done so early to allow them time to settle in to the team in time for the season starting. Can’t see any fun in that.

    Mrs C and I are back from 10 days in Peurto Pollensa, Majorca, we really like it for a beach holiday. She is coeliac and has to be very careful in restaurants, we have no problem eating out in Peurto Pollensa. Only issue we had was that we seemed to always end up close to English people whore...

    Kneecap

    I am looking forward to the trial of Mo Chara, it will be extremely interesting to see how his defence will play out. We live in a country where terrorist flags and emblems are on display every day. Today on my way to and from work I passed through a village where there were UVF flags hanging...

    Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

    I have said it before but I think it is worth repeating; this transfer window feels very familiar.

    Where do you stand on Calvert-Lewin leaving?

    I realise that it is going to be costly to replace him but I think it is something we need to do if we are going to improve in any sort of meaningful way. He doesn’t score enough goals and he doesn’t bring others into scoring positions. Add to that he now appears injury prone and I don’t believe...

    2024/25 Idrissa Gueye

    I think we have to give him a two year contract, he is head and shoulders above anything we have in his role and while he is knocking on a bit he still does a good job for us. To get someone in as good as him would cost a lot of money which is better spent on fixing problems elsewhere. I will...

    I wouldn’t be a Kneecap fan but then I don’t really like any rap music. The business of banning them I really find disturbing, the lad has not been found guilty of anything but the establishment is clamouring to ban them. I dare say if you looked through the history of all those who have...

    2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

    Personally I think the new owners have decided that he isn’t clinical enough in front of goal and therefore cannot be relied on to score us enough goals for a player on his wages. I agree with that assessment, I will be surprised if he joins another club where he will be first choice centre...

    2024/25 Dominic Calvert-Lewin

    He has to leave. He needs a new challenge and we need to refresh our scoring options. Somethings just come to there natural end and Everton and DCL have reached that point. I personally wish him well, I hope he goes on to do good things for another club overseas or in the championship. I read...

    Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

    There is something depressingly familiar about this transfer window.
