    Welcome Gareth Southgate

    If we appoint Southgate then we deserve all we get.......and it won't be good!

    Concepts and rules you think would improve football going forward...

    and, oh yeah, if a manager/coach/any member of the back room staff does something that merits a booking/sending off, they don't get the punishment (it means nowt to these millionaires). Instead they have to nominate an onfield player who gets the sanction/suspension. It might stop the likes of...

    Concepts and rules you think would improve football going forward...

    Just a few to be going on with; 1. Once a free kick has been awarded nobody from the offending team is allowed to touch the ball. If they do, it's an automatic booking. It's the player's responsibility to be aware who the free kick was awarded to. Ignorance is not an excuse 2. Once a free...

    Why do we bother?(never give up)

    Er, it pretty much is always like that (albeit that we don't lose many games in the cups, just two a season - but we tend to get them done nice and early) :lol:

    Why do we bother?(never give up)

    Football as an open competition is long gone. From now on there will only ever be winners from the Sky 6 (although i'm probably giving Spurs too much credit and I don't think we'll see a repeat of the Leicester season). I would advise anyone not to engage in top level footy at all - go and...

    Match Thread Aston Villa 3-2 Everton. Saturday 14th September 17:30

    We do like to concede screamers. I bet we feature in goal of the season more than any other club, unfortunately as the victims!

    Permission to still like Dyche?

    I dunno. We are all wise after the event. Was it really so bad to take Ndiaye off with 8 minutes to go and put Doucoure on for a bit more energy in midfiled? If he hadn't and Ndiaye had got injured we would all be calling him out for not resting him 'as the game was dead?' The truth is that...

    We're going down aren't we?

    I'm afraid that, when everyone sold their soul for the 'pleasure' of watching live footy on TV (but who could resist the lure of seeing Newcastle play West Ham from the comfort of the sofa?), we consigned ourselves to the certainty of relegation/being a member of the support cast. The football...

    Marco Silva - was it a mistake?

    Yes, it was a mistake. To appoint him in the first place, that is. Like Martinez, he was another manager who specialised in getting his teams relegated and yet we chased him as if he had a record like Pep. His appointment wasn't the start of the decline but it was another step on the journey

    Match Thread Everton 2-3 AFC Bournemouth (Sat 31 Aug 3:00 PM)

    Yep. Very impressive. Not many teams can lay claim to such spectacular incompetence. We should get some new shirt 'sponsership' to highlight the acheivement (y'know, like when clubs have 'FA cup winners 2016' or whatever) :lol:

    Match Thread Everton 2-3 AFC Bournemouth (Sat 31 Aug 3:00 PM)

    We are a loser club. Regularly bottle it towards the end of games, but rarely do what Bournemouth did today. It's sad, but we've been heading in a geberal downward direction since the late 80's. The best thing we could do for the fans is to go bankrupt/fold. At least we could do something...

    and he's not even going on holiday! Honestly, the lengths some people will go to, to avoid hearing about the match :lol:

    Match Thread Tottenham Hotspur 4-0 Everton (Sat 24 Aug, 3:00 PM)

    Just watched the goals on MOTD. I notice that another one of our 'brave' players turned his back on the ball as he went to block the first goal. Fair play though, it might have stung him a bit and we can't have that.

    Maybe he's been signed as an answer to our stiking problems?

    MOTD

    The pundits are all 'wise after the event', telling us why the defence failed to prevent the goal, etc. Strange that none of them ever managed a successful team, eh?

    Gareth Southgate.

    The most sensible thing posted today. I, for one, am going to follow this sterling advice!

    VAR

    Ref's not changing their onfiled decision without good reason/evidence is yet another rule from 'the powers that be' that they are too stupid/spineless to implement. It doesn't matter if it was a foul or not. Changing this one (on the advice of VAR) will only lead to a perception amongst fans...

    Match Thread Everton 0-3 Brighton - Sat 17 Aug 2024 - Kick Off: 15:00

    I HATE footballers that do that. I played at an extremely low level (Ssunday League, where you had to pay your subs to play nstead of someone giving you money) and none of the blokes would do that. It's easy to condition yourself to stand tall (FFS, all keepers do it). It's a stain on the...
