QUESTIONS FOR EARL BARRETT

[ijjysmith]

I asked the question and sorry mate, never lived there

Ha! Thanks for asking.

I always thought it was weird! Absolute spit of him!

Hiya earl

Did you go on a lemo bender after the 95 final ?

Hi folks, meeting up with Earl Barrett tomorrow and was wondering if any of you fans out there have any questions you would like me to put to him.
Just come back from interviewing Sheeds and also bumped into big Dunc. I put the offer to him to be interviewed for the book with the donations going to the former players foundation. Surprisingly, Dunc refused point blank

Earl, the derby is next week and most of us are expecting disappointment despite Liverpool not being great just now. It is the same every year.

Now, with all due respect, you weren't everyone's first name on the teamsheet, but your time at Everton coincided with the best run in history against Liverpool (9 matches unbeaten between '94 and '99).

What factors do you think contributed to this, were there any particular routines or affirmations the team (or yourself) you stuck to, or was it just the manager/tactics? By all rights the spice boys should have webbed us every time but they never managed it. I'd be eager to hear your opinions having experienced it all first hand.

Although you were an excellent defender, why do you think nobody ever taught you how to pass the ball?

 

[Big Fat Sam]

I used to think he was awful. Was he that bad?

I think he is the worst player I have ever seen regularly put the blue shirt on. I hated him for a long time but then my attention switched to Claus Thomson and Idan Tal!

i.e. Earl, butters, a bloke on our Forum thought you were an awful player. How bad were you really?

That'll do. Greatly appreciated and I look forward to his response.

Fans should support THE TEAM. Some players are better than others. He gave me his time to conduct an interview for a the former players foundation. More than what can be said for big DUNC. We are Everton aren't we?

He was a good defender, but his distribution was embarrassingly bad.

Oh hey

 

[Paulie]

Earl, you have played for Everton and I haven't. How did you manage that?

 

[alan ball]

He was a good defender, but his distribution was embarrassingly bad.

Would you criticise the manager (Joe Royle) who bought him?

 

[The Hairy Splinter]

Would you criticise the manager (Joe Royle) who bought him?

No, because Joe Royle acquired him to defend first and foremost.
