What if his ambition is just to keep pushing everton as far as he can? What if that has always been the case? Its not a bad ambition is it considering that this is a truly great old club of the league, a sleeping giant if ever there was one. Using ingenuity and resourcefulness instead of...

Ian ross used to work for the daily mail didn't he? Perfect way to feed the rumour mill.

May not be relevant to us but Moutinho was quoted widely in the Portuguese press on 8th Jan saying something like although he's committed for as long as he is at sporting "now the transfer window is open we will see what happens". Sorry don't know how to post a link but its on abola oline.

Like many I was born with this affliction. Don't remember making any choice about it. But I think it was my uncle who got us into it, taking my older brother to goodison in the late 60s when I was v young. We'd be at me nan's every Saturday. He would never have taken me or my sister as in...

Fably said Toxteth Blue! Couldn't agree more.

my opinion on today for what its worth (not much, granted) is that we were unlucky. We played well I thought and certainly had the better of Villa. That gives me a great deal of pleasure. Their goals we did to ourselves really. That's the worrying part, if any. I think there's plenty...

As far as the effect the call in had on the Club in terms of finance, wouldn't the call in affect our ability to raise credit? I got the impression that we have been borrowing against future income having insufficient other assets left. No kirkby makes for a projection of less future income...

One important reason to lie about the effect of the call in - season ticket sales.

Fantastic news DM to sign. Apparently he's been on SSN this pm saying same thing and also that after he signs is the time to discuss why the delay. Perhaps we will find out something of whats been going on. Was thinking, by now the "bumper" contract must have been dependent on progress in...

I agree its a strange way for Moyes of all people to be viewing it. But what has he been doing for the last 6 years if not consistently overperforming on scarce resources. He's perhaps at a point now where the effort involved for him with the odds continously stacked against him is taking its toll.

A lot of fans are off on one about our negative style of play and Moyes lack of tactical nouse. Moyes is no great tactician. What he is is a fantastic motivator. He is struggling with that at the moment and that’s why we are so poor both in execution and results. I don’t think he has made...

Leonbil - spot on.

I think moyes has lost some confidence and self belief. Going out of europe last season seems to have been the watershed. Up to then we were only going forward. Since then we have seemingly only gone backwards. I think Moyes has lost his way and is a little uncertain just now how to put things...

I've always had great respect for so many of the posters on this forum. Its always seemed a place of sanity when others were losing their heads. I just can't believe the stuff I'm reading on here at the moment. Don't get me wrong I can read all the same things elsewhere, I just expect a bit...

I have been reading more and more posts on the various forums saying moyes should go. This kind of knee jerk reaction I think is because people are frustrated. We should be doing so much better. However we have to be realistic. Surely as evertonians after what we went through in the 90s...
