Beautifully put, Bryan, but you didn't need that comma in there. Fume doesn't rest.

Thought you weren't arsed a footballers wages????? confused here lad
Jose has flaunted FA laws for drug taking so it wouldn't surprise me if he drinks drives and also snorts beak off the dashboard while on the phone and doing 100mph on the motorway.
"What must Leon Osman and Tony Hibbert think?"
Not a day goes by where I don't ask myself the same question.
Home? Hardly.
He's a well-known Kopite, and if I remember correctly in the last few years he's laughed at Everton losses on Twitter.

I doubt he'll be any sort of figurehead for them to look up to tbh, they'll probably just pity him. Like a rogue kid at school that's been held back 2 years. Imagine being 25 and having teenagers pity you.
Honestly though, what a pile of steaming turds that article is.
Couldn't agree with that article more.

What must Leon Osman and Tony Hibbert think? Their time was up, but after long service they were treated with contempt by the club with a goodbye text.
Hibbert should have thought how lucky he was to recieve a 25k wage for about 5 years when he was in a physical condition which meant he wouldn't have came close to passing a medical at any club should we have let him go, and earned about 6m quid for about 5 games a season over that time
Osman should have realsied that he was lucky to be on the books at his age given how limited he was the last few years and that no one likes a managers dressing room grass.
Everton offering to help ex-players out is admirable and it is difficult to question the judgement of David Unsworth and Denise Barrett-Baxendale, head of Everton in the Community.
and then the article does entirely that throughout it

If they stop and think, they will realise that they were let go for footballing reasons. Baxter has come back to Everton for humanitarian reasons. There's a world of difference. Good luck to the lad...Unsie will do what he can, and I would not be surprised if Bill was not behind this whole scenario...it definitely a Bill thing, Everton doing good in unusual ways. Mosh will very quickly be learning that to hold Everton in your hands is not just about business decisions and spending money,its about embracing and understanding The Everton Way. To have Mosh understanding the responsibility he has will be the only legacy from BK that's important.

Interesting views here, well expressed.
Giving him a footballing contract however irrelevant it may be to the first-team squad just doesn't sit well with me, though I admire the club once again for not only showing, but proving its decency and concern.
I worry at the impression it gives to academy players and players at all age-groups really. If we are trying to attract the best young talent to the academy and intermediate teams from home and abroad, this sends at best, mixed messages, to young players, and their parents.
Yes, we look after "our own" but we also seemingly tolerate a player who to my knowledge has failed 2 drugs tests and has had opportunities to build a very decent life for himself through football which he has to date squandered.
Drug use leaves a trail of misery and is criminal activity. I'm not at all saying this is an example of a soft attitude from the club but the "one of our own" criteria can be applied very selectively. There are many scenarios in which the club would disassociate itself from an ex-player depending on the seriousness/severity of their behaviour.

Totally agree with that article. What it doesn't bring up is Jose slagging off Everton on twitter all the time.
He has slagged us off, broke laws and we want to give him another chance.
