All Evertonians are entitled to there opinion but some of the negative stuff on here is an absolute disgrace and can only be the result of an obsessive anti Everton/anti Kenwright agenda. Have these people not yet realised that in todays financial climate in football, loans are becoming to some extent the new transfers? Loans used to be simple..just send a surplus player out on loan for a season .Now they are subject to negotiation and in many cases fees are involved. We paid a fee for Lukaku, and we outbid West Brom-good business. We don't know whether we are paying all, part, or any of his wages. My understanding of the early reports(and there is no guarantee that any of these are 100% accurate) is that there was no loan fee for Barry but that we were covering a good proportion of his wages. Absolutely fair enough-good business again. Bill managed to do some excellent negotiation late in the window(he IS good at this aspect of football!) and Martinez was able to use his knowledge and reputation to secure the players he wanted-good business. There is a sea change at Everton...we are being dragged by the new manager into the modern world of football, and this is good. There is no more dithering, we are positive in the market, buying and selling. Sorry if some don't actually like the idea of Everton doing something right, why don't you go and find something else to moan about, because the majority of good Everton supporters are sick to the back teeth with you.You know who you are.
Meanwhile another newspaper reports that RVP is unhappy with Moyes methods at OT. You just don't know what to believe, do you !
