If he goes the board need more than a stick to beat them with, it's criminal not for sale should mean not for sale!

Not when it's coming from Everton; Not for sale means 'how much more will you offer if we keep saying it?'

So much for us buying without having to sell.

Very angry tonight, at Stones, Everton, the board and Martinez. Played us all for fools AGAIN and we swallowed it all AGAIN.

Just hope we fleece the bastards for as much as possible.

John Stones is a cockwomble

My view on this saga, all be it a bit basic:

If it looks like shiit and smells like shiit

Then in all probability. .... it is shiit

Goodnight.

Absolutely fantastic point to make. No player is bigger than the club, and screw John Stones for leaving this so late. There are questions to be raised over the board but we're about to break records. The flak should be aimed much more at Jose Mourinho and John Stones.

I don't think you can be angry at Stones. What's he done apart from kept quiet, remained very professional and played well? The guy has obviously wanted to go to Chelsea and has been asked by the club to hand in a requet to take heat off them.

John Stones hasn't just decided, "oh I might go now actually" - it's all been down to Everton.

He was excellent against city to be fair to him

Never said he was bad, but it looked like he didn't really enjoy it.

This has been coming for a long time really, hasn't it? As far as I'm concerned, Kenwright had every intention of selling Stones if the fee reached a decent amount from the start, like other people have been saying on here, he's been playing hard ball and it's apparently worked what with a £40m bid looking like it's coming in.

Let us not kid ourselves, Everton are a selling club, have been for a while and will be until we get fresh investment.

So it was actually Kenwright who put in the transfer, not John Stones arrrr i get yeah,the little tinker is blue Bill

How can anybody in this thread give Stones stick? This isn't Lescott mkII. The lad has remained incredibly professional and continued to perform at a high level for us when, in my opinion, he knew that he was probably going to Chelsea all along. The whole time our board have been getting as much as they can out of Chelsea and have surely now asked him to put his transfer request in. It would make no sense whatsoever for Stones to randomly put his request in now.

Let him on.
I went to buy an item of clothing on a website Ive been eyeing up for a few weeks as it was on sale.
When I finally go to buy it they don't have my size anymore.
Now I want it even more and cant believe I didn't buy it in the first place.
Gutted , let this be a lesson to us all (points at temple)

The above is a true story.
