I get the feeling that Everton players are a sensitive lot...and used to having their sensibilities blindly accommodated. I suggest they do not react well to any environ that might injure their feelings. Nor can they be pushed too hard...they simply 'down tools' if they sense they are under any pressure to increase fitness, perform better etc etc.
But we are the family club and football is not the main priority at EFC. Blue Chrimbo visits to orphanages and work houses are what our brave lionhearts do best.
We are blessed to have such a lovely, sensitive bunch representing us in the community.
