    Forum villians/anti-heroes

    International break thread. Yeah, we all know the drill - tons of terrible threads spring up. I'm concerned GOT is lacking forum villains and/or anti-heroes. The pantomime villains, contrarians, and outspoken seekers of truth have all been a core and key part of the GOT experience in my time...

    Should we be concerned about Newcastle winning the thingy-cup?

    Opinions seem divided about the significance of Newcastle winning the Carabao Cup for Everton FC. Some seem nea in the game thread. Others seem concerned about the consequences on the behaviour of the Geordies towards Everton and Evertonians. What's your view?

    Awful football related adverts

    No. 1 has to be that awful nivea (I think?) advert featuing Steve McManaman and three of their current players, all ironically with terrible skin. Some godawful ones, going back years. The Pizza Hut Gareth Southgate ones were naff. Tell us yours.

    The Crucible

    A place to contain bad things, stupidity, rage, fear, sexual tension, and petty squabbles. Definitely not an arena, coliseum, amphitheatre, or a place for gladiators. No sir. Tag in yer idiots. Go!

    Toyota Hybrids

    Yup, a thread for the Grandolddadsnet.com side of the forum. Anyone got a Toyota hybrid? Long story short, my commute has got a hell of a lot shorter and my big heavy DPF burdened diesel ain't the machine for it. So considering a Corolla estate (touring sports or whatever you call them). I...

    Facile car stickers

    Any good examples? There's the obvious 'baby on board' one which ignores the wider issue before not driving like a bell regardless of who is in front. Saw 'hit the brakes not a horse' this morning. WHAT???? Don't know many who use horses to slow down.

    Viagra adverts on TV

    Just noticed an advert for Viagra/Boots during the half-time adverts for the Forest-Brighton game on TNT. Appropriate target audience in fairness, what with all the floppy fathers watching. Just a bit surprised to see it. Might lead to some interesting conversations if watching with little...

    The anti-Dyche - Dychette hugging it out thread

    I think there's some residual sexual tension between posters such as @Saint Domingo who backed Dyche and others who were less enamoured. Hug/bum it out in here folks.

    Most sanctimoniously self-satisfied male physical exercise hobbyists

    Inspired by the lifting, walking and running threads, I thought I'd ask GOT which exercise hobbyists amongst the male population are the most smugly annoying? The ones who act like they're better than everyone and anything, including sliced bread. Fwiw, mine is martial artist fellas. Complete...

    Pineapple on Pizza Tax

    An exciting real world take on a GOT classic topic: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/jan/16/norwich-pizza-chefs-are-waging-war-over-pineapple-but-theyre-just-the-latest-to-put-a-tax-on-taste A £100 levy for asking for pineapple on pizza. Fair or utter food fascism?

    More disappointing appointment- Moyes or Benitez

    @john jako, in another thread, has observed that in some quarters the Moyes re-appointment is taking more flak than when we hired the porcine one. Which one makes you feel less good about Everton FC?

    Dispute resolution

    We all see many disputes, disagreements, feuds, and arguments daily on this fine forum. I think a formalised dispute resolution process may help: a) the moderators; b) the general quality of the forum experience. Some suggested mechanisms in the poll. Please suggest others.
