He blocked me on twitter during my twitter days, because, and I quote, I asked him for proof, politely, on one of his stadium funding posts. I un-followed him shortly after as I was a bit surprised at his "blocking" !
I see him quoted a lot in various threads and in here but as far as pessimism goes he is defo up there.
He was nothing if not interesting with his ITK stuff back in the day and obviously has some connections within the inner sanctum that is Everton but I'm not sure how much accuracy he has!
Still, all part of the joys of being an Evertonian though.
