No, because I'm not some self entitled, FIFA consuming, sweaty little virgin.

We have a transfer thread for those people.


Oh my god get out of my head you sorcerous football guru you!

By all means, continue calling other fans bedwetters because they have ambitions that go beyond Darron Gibson, a player who has hardly turned up over his original 4 and a half year contract and is now more widely known for being a drunk than being a football players amongst Evertonians.



What's he done to deserve a new contract here? Why do YOU think we should continue to pay him?
 
Gibson is a great player when fit - go back into the vaults and most of you on here have agreed with this at some point or another.

We have a lot of money now which we will no doubt be speny on some quality players over the summer - Gibson signing a new contract will have no bearing on this but it gives Koeman an opportunity to assess his value to the squad.

....at his best he is imperious but blokes with poor injury records and professional attitude rarely turn those frailties around. Time will tell.

That's not why you're bedwetters though mate.

Gibson signing a new contract will have no bearing on us signing new players and the exaggerated faux outrage on here is embarrassing.

Enough obviously.

Dear me why such hostility?

This obviously goes beyond a player singing a contract extension.

Have you had a bad experience with an Irishman in the past?

It's okay friend - point to the parts of the doll that he touched you.

With scarce resources I'd be inclined to let him go - under the current ownership? I'm happy to give him a bit more time as ultimately it won't have any impact on our plans going forward in any negative fashion.

He takes up a place in the squad though doesn't he?

That's a spot we could give to someone who is actually fit to play more than ten times a season and who doesn't get drunk at night and go running cyclists over in his mornings.

No, though, you're absolutely right you boss blue you. He's clearly done more than enough to deserve to be here and to be paid a footballer's wages despite not taking care of his body like a footballer should or even being available to play football more than 25% of the season. I can see why you'd be happy. He's proper NSNO, just like you, you utterly boss blue.

Calling other fans bedwetters because you don't agree with them kicking off over someone who can't be relied upon being handed a new contract.

You say a place in the squad like we have a tiny squad, once the others are released we'll need numbers.

I really don't understand the angst over giving a contract to a squad player.

If we are lucky enough to get Monchi as DoF we will have spent about 12m in getting rid of one manager and replacing him with another.
The extension for Gibson is aimed at keeping some experience in the squad without having to spend a fortune on replacements or having to rely on academy youngsters.
I saw a comment recently that 100m only buys two Raheem Sterlings and although it was meant as a put down to Everton there is truth in it.
Good players cost a lot of money. If we are trying to buy very good players we will get no more than three or if lucky four,including a goalkeeper, for that amount. We have to be careful that we are not spending our transfer kitty in simply getting squad numbers up.
I don't want us to sign eight players. I want possibly four quality players.

If , there have been no serious additions by Sept 1st then fume away, but in the meantime get a grip.

For me, it's a question of discipline. Don't want pissheads in or near the squad. The man has averaged 15 games a season for 12 years FFS!

I would definitely have sacked him when he knocked that cyclist over, while drunk driving. Sooner we get rid, the better.

That about sums it up.

Now getting back to that time Father O'Reilly put his finger up your bum...

Here's a few reasons to keep him.

I think he was fit for pretty much most of last season.
He counts as a home grown player.
He's only 28.
Makes business sense to have him on a contract and sell on if it doesn't work out than let him go for free and pay a premium for a home grown squad filler.
Any player who isn't coming close to retirement deserves a chance under the new management.
Having Gibson at the club could be another reason for Rooney to switch from united.
He was Evertons best player when Koeman last saw us a few months ago.
He has experience of winning the premier league.

Here's a few reasons to let him go.
Poor fitness.
Poor off field behavior

I think it make sense to keep him, at least till Koeman has had a chance to assess him properly.
 
Was just chatting to a friend of Gibsons that frequents this forum and he said he'd told Darron about the response to his new contract, apparently he's had a good laugh at it and said the majority of people posting on these sorts of forums aren't fit to clean his spoiled undies after another night of binge drinking.

If you want to be angry about something then that response from him should probably do it.
 
Some of the fune is OTT but would anyone want to sign him if he was out of contract at another club? Hopefully he accepted a substantial pay cut.
