Totally agree! My motto has always been live in a house for a year before decorating or changing anything. It's done me well so far, you need a little time to adjust to the new space and surrounding and work out exactly how you use it and what...

I’m doing him a right favour there as well, believe me.

Brilliant 🤣

Tim Cahill - Man of principle Simon Jordan refused to pay Cahill’s agent any money as part of the deal (all agreed with Millwall, and agreed personal terms with Cahill). “Take it from you client” said the bombastic tangoed idiot. Deal off and he...

Soucek would only be acceptable if signed along with another centre mid who adds some quality on the ball. If he was our only central midfield signing I'd be really, really disappointed. He does a job and will chip in with a few goals but he's...

I'm not talking about landscaping. That stuff can take years. But a coat of paint on exposed surfaces is basic stuff. The roof of the base structure is a mess. I assume the scaffolding has delayed the screed covering. Internally, the walls need...

I’m not arguing with you but the point I was trying to make was what did Goodison look like when it first opened (notwithstanding the era, etc). When was Goodison Park “finished”? It never opened with blue cladding or the big “Goodison” lights on...

Not to sound obtuse, but who says it isn't? There are still three and a half weeks until the Roma game, and a further two weeks until Brighton. Yes there may have been issues and some snagging to be done, but on a build this size it's natural; a...

It is “finished” though isn’t it. We’ll be playing a first competitive game there in about 6 weeks. I do get what you mean that bits and pieces will probably be ongoing for a while after, but it will be evolving organically over years and years...

That's fine - but why does everything have to be sentiment with Evertonians? Why can't we just actually have a finished stadium on opening day? If that's too much to ask, then it doesn't augur well. I'm simply saying that this beautiful stadium...

Possibly the very first “Everton, that”…

I do wonder if in 1905 Evertonians were beginning to believe Goodison had jinxed us especially after this; "The weather robbed Everton of recording their second League championship in 1904/05. Their match at Woolwich Arsenal in November was...

Doesn’t usually stop you though…

It’s a beautiful stadium and I’m certain branding and personality will evolve over the years. Goodison didn’t look the way it does now on day one.

Whilst I understand people's frustrations regarding the lack of internal branding etc, we have to remember not everything has to be done for day 1. Don't get me wrong, I'd much prefer the wall in the south stand to be painted blue and to have...
