Bearsley was incredible. Remember, Children, he came in at the tail end of our all-time great side as we hit the buffers of decline. We knew great players when we saw them back then as we had so many so recently - but he was different class...
Yup, the window is an acid test. Excuses don't cut it. You are exposed, stripped naked by events and actions - or lack thereof.
We will know all we need to know about the Friedkins by the end of August.
It's like the Swedish women the other...
As Kenny Rogers used to sing "You gotta know when to hold 'em." It likely fits the ethos of the Texan Friedkins too.
They will either produce the goods in the next fortnight or so, and receive much praise for their cunning, or it will largely...
Well, if you are as competent as their business history suggests they are, then you build up your assets whether you sell them eventually or not. Either way, we're going to be built up and become far more attractive.
But they do need to start...
I keep pointing out that TFG do not have much history of ‘flipping’ businesses they acquire. They moved out beyond car dealerships into resorts/leisure and into movies/digital entertainment and have not only retained their original investments...
That's where we part ways, Dave.
You claim to be a socialist, but here you are openly admitting you would sell your soul to the devil to keep give local people who cannot afford match tickets precedence over Evertonians from abroad who can...
Well, City's owners are sportswashing. And they are eternally rich. They are buying people's fealty. People who should know better.
If it comes to a choice between being run by capitalist Americans who will slowly price out some locals and human...
I'm not a local fan, but instinctively I believe local fans should be the locus of support - the core - for any club. They give a club its social relevance: its soul.
However, the game was never going to be run for locals when it is owned by...
This societal obsession with perfection has to stop. As you say, if something cannot be determined quickly, then the on-field decision stands. Take the offside law. It was only ever brought in to prevent what children call "goal-hanging". There's...
Very commendable mate. Cos the stadium is almost ‘complete’ doesn’t dilute any of your footage, especially when it’s put together with yours and other blues best interests at heart and it’s not about chasing ‘likes’. Still plenty more shots to...
The horse has long since bolted, though. I don't feel sympathy for them either - but, actually, your colleagues are simply being ruthlessly clear-sighted. The Premier League is no longer the "English League Division One". It is the world's first...
Exactly. But he's a symbol of club propaganda now. If we don't get a new right-back, not only will Jake be asked to plug gaps, but Seamus will be held up as a viable, iconic, alternative when Jake isn't available.
I'm happy to give our new...
