Some of our proudest records could all go this season

[jtl60]

In our lifetime we've grown up hearing about Dixies 60 league goals in a season .

Up until about a fortnight ago I'd never heard of 63 goals in all competitions

So haaland breaking the later is a very very good achievement and hats off if he does it. But it's not the real one!

Dixie Dean didn't get to play the League Cup and 13 games in the Champions League. If Haaland can score over 50 league goals he'd be approaching Dixie Dean levels

In the season that Dean scored 60 goals he also scored 3 goals in 2 FA Cup games, and 4 goals in 2 games for England.

As good as he is, there's very little chance of Haaland breaking Dean's record.

35 goals in 31 games is a million miles from 60 in 39 games, or even 42 games.

Sky and the Prem will frame it as such though anyway!

Is 1 goal Neal Maupay also a record (low) for a striker in the Premier League?

 

[Moomin]

Given the choice I'd rather have Haaland than Dean.

Is 1 goal Neal Maupay also a record (low) for a striker in the Premier League?

Until Monday we had all 3 of our strikers on 1 league goal each with 5 to play.

That 10000000% must be a record

Dixie scored 60 league goals as well. These pundits and commentators seem to conveniently forget this. It needs to be pointed out to them.

Didn’t Dean have a steel plate in his head?
Considering the amount of goals he allegedly scored with his head, would this be similar to doping today?

I remember Lex Luthor having a steel plate in his forearm in the WWF and he used this to cheat all the time as well.

Given the choice I'd rather have Haaland than Dean.

I'd take Fat Ronaldo over both of them without even having to think about it.

Can’t compare eras.

60 goals when offside and fouls were completely different to today.

Haarland would have been in hospital half the season back then. Today’s footballs are like balloons compared to then.

Dean would have been sent off most weeks today. So would most defenders.

63 goals in 40-odd games was phenomenal. So is 51 this season for Haarland.

The defenders used to smoke there pipes at the posts.

Would relegation he such a terrible thing if it caused a brutal civil war in our fanbase to come to fruition and drove the dars, that drag us down with their NSNO delusion and haranguing of young players, finally broke away from Everton to be respectful Grandads and walk along canals wearing chinos on the weekends, leaving the young realist blues to carry the club on?

While others look up to the Olympic Gold medalist on the podium reaping the accolades for their achievement some Evertonians are throwing garlands at a dead fly bobbing about in the water because it's spent longer in the pool than anyone else.

You know who you are.

I watch the Olympic's these days but i can't compare any of the recent results to the late great Sir Alfred Rhys-Bobellon who won gold medals in Cycling, Swimming and Shooting in the 1924 Olympics.

Today's athletes are nothing compared to him.
