Everton Transfer Thread 2016

I don't actually know why anybody is complaining, witsel/mata could have been due to sign today, could be tomorrow, or may have changed their mind. In the end Koeman will make the decision on who he signs and who he doesn't sign. I'm happy he is doing a thorough job in assessing the current squad. All this well so and so are off to Asia tomorrow doesn't matter one bit, negotiations can still take place.
 

Wow...

That's a lot of abuse for getting the signing date wrong, which is all that has happened as it stands right now as far as I can tell.

Heads all over the floor.

Tomorrow is another day, nothing will happen until at least Monday now ..have a nice weekend lads.
 
Straight up lads the Esk is a top bloke as genuine as they come. Information he reproduces here is not from a 'look at me and my crystal ball' posters, he gives us want he learns from his sources. Unfortunately some on here have become paranoid to the extent that they shoot at anything that moves if it doesn't give them the answers they want, if you're like that then grow up, pretend we've got no money again and that everyone is lying if that makes you happy I'll happily stay in the world of Esk with patience and look forward to the future. Even with no signings El Pricko has gone so that is more to look forward to than last year for starters and is it any coincidence that those same people doubted that we would get Koeman, Esk said we would and we did.
 

The Esk said:
I've always believed in taking responsibility for one's own actions, and I'm not going to stop that now. So for the fact that transfers did not occur this week despite my claims they would, I apologise.

I'm comfortable with my sources, their knowledge and their integrity. I've said previously they and I cannot be right all the time with something that even with knowledge is still predictive and dependant upon the actions of others.

I've been on this site pretty much since the start, posting around 17,000 times, moderating for the last two years. Never in one of those posts or as a moderator have I attacked another poster, I've always tried to treat people with the respect I believe everyone deserves. So I'm a little surprised and disappointed by the actions and words of some on here both at a personal level and also (and perhaps more importantly) from the site's perspective. Through thick and thin one of the attractions of this place has been the community spirit that exists here - I haven't seen much evidence of it in recent days.

We are all Blues here, and I understand the frustration, it's something I feel as much as anyone here, but that frustration should never boil over to the behaviour we've seen here in my opinion.

To better times ahead, a more harmomiois GOT and the fulfilment of all our Everton ambitions.

I absolutely accept your bona fides.
I absolutely accept that you believed that what your sources told you and I firmly believe that the only thing wrong was the timing. I do believe these players will sign, I think being so definitive about an exact time in matters so totally unpredictable was possibly not the wisest thing you have ever done.
I am afraid I could never become a moderator on a forum such as this as there are at least half a dozen people on here who I would have banned ages ago.
I realise that a forum such as this is open to freedom of speech, but ,in my opinon there are a number of contributors who are not supporters of Everton football club, I believe they are here to make mischief.
