    Lukaku

    Be terrific popcorning from the club if Rom doesn't sign. A few quid on "Number 10" shirts supposedly secreted away as bait to keep fans onside would be a stroke of genius. Marvelous work.

    Would you pay £24m for Lukaku?

    Unless the club give him an ultimatum surely he'll hang out to the last minute he's on record stating he wants CL footy meaning EFC are "plan b". Only if he's got the Everton bug and WANTS to will he sign before the transfer window closes. He clearly liked it here (I'm beginning to think the...

    Louis Van Gaal's Man Utd Clearout

    Be quite happy not to deal with Utd ever again. Last year and a decade of Moyes living at chateau Fergies was an obscenity we need to redress the balance and get back to first principles ie treat mancs with the contempt we always have and disinfect after contact. Any cultural analysis reveals...

    Ross Barkley

    Think you have a point mate the reality is money talks in football just look at the nonsense of Qatar getting the world cup. Like everyone else I have no idea what Barkley's situation is but after Rooney legging it to Utd nothing would surprise me. Despite all the stick you're getting thanks...

    SIlverware - How important is it to you?

    Nothing more important. The reason we're not Bootle, Southport or Tranmere is because we won stuff in the past. The point being it isn't just our present enjoyment it's the growth of the legend that draws in the next generation something we should all be mindful of. The Prem and the power of...

    Guess who is 80 today ?

    Thinking about it I probably still live in those days of Bingham and Lee Evertonians of all generations simply didn't entertain the idea any were bigger or better than us, not Liverpool, Utd, Arsenal none of them. It mattered not a jot we won eff all we were Everton no more to be said. When we...

    Would you pay £24m for Lukaku?

    You can never underestimate the value of delusion and sentimentality at the RS despite the false bravado they know they are in it up to their necks. Suarez leaving and the "we go again" sword of damacles hovering menacingly means a major signing is essential. Under normal circumstances a...

    Would you pay £24m for Lukaku?

    Said it in the other Lukaku thread a week ago Liverpool play his game. Pacy, direct counter attacking style verging on the long ball anyone thinking Rogers and co won't salivate at the idea of rubbing our noses in it really don't know the RS. It ticks so many boxes and don't anyone hold their...

    WHAT HAS SHOCKED YOU THE MOST AS AN EVERTONIAN?

    Returning to Goodison in 1988 after years away and seeing how much the passion had diluted. We won 4 nil and if Newcastle fans hadn't sang you could have had a kip.

    Would you pay £24m for Lukaku?

    It's a good point that mate. I've expressed doubts about Rom but there's no doubting signing him would be massively popular among the faithful and with Barry on board the whole "loanee" thing suddenly transforms into a stick to ram right up the holes of sneering mancs and kopites. If Roberto...

    Would you pay £24m for Lukaku?

    Precedent for this with that over hyped tool who used to manage here he had ideas beyond his station and look what happened to him. I won't be arsed if Lukaku ends up elsewhere it's only Roberto being keen that makes me think otherwise. At the figures bandied around I think he's a massive gamble...
