There is a little bit of revisionism that goes on about how great things were back in the old days.
‘The league isn’t competitive anymore, it’s all sanitised and predictable’..
Well guess what, you could predict what teams were likely to...
I was half thinking that before I went v Ipswich.
Then I has a letterbox view from the Main Stand and I realised again how our Grand Old Lady needs to be gracefully retired.
It had the opposite effect for me. I love Goodison. It's one of my favourite, happy places, but yesterday was a wake-up call. We've got to stop holding onto the past and embrace the future. In football in 2025, if you aren't going forward, you're...
