    Are you a still a football fan or solely an Evertonian these days?

    Everton always but go to all Wales away games as there’s a party at every game, which we’re usually unlikely to win. Been going to Goodison since the 70’s so saw all the good times including Rotterdam. Anyone else nowadays, yes Citeh and Arsenal, bent as Citeh are, their footy is tip top...

    Match Thread Brighton & Hove Albion v Everton - Team Prediction, Waffle, Match Report & MotM Poll

    https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/dele.118084/page-152#post-11107299 Whilst that wasn’t the point of my comment, try looking at this weird forum called GOT ! My point was that our bench was empty.

    Match Thread Brighton & Hove Albion v Everton - Team Prediction, Waffle, Match Report & MotM Poll

    Don’t disagree that we should have played out the remaining time against 10 men better than we did and held on for the unlikely win. Look at our subs bench today though, that is the true measure of how far we have fallen. If Doucoure was genuinely knackered, Dyche didn’t have many options...

    2023/24 Sean Dyche

    We bad better players on that pitch. They had no manager. Negative from the start. Pathetic.

    That diagonal long ball comes with a fortnight’s notice. It’s woeful. The absence of an alternative ball passing through midfield is pathetic.

    777 Partners - New Poll Added 18/10/23

    If there is another interested party, they must be loving this saga. Every passing week that brings more 777 gloom and doom, knocks another good chunk off the cost of a distressed sale, if 777 have to pull out. People who operate in those mega money circles don’t usually get to make a habit of...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    They’re probably still putting together the Sly Sports Points Deduction Appeal Special. Tune in tonight at 8pm to hear the verdict we’ve all been waiting for. Will it be adios to the Goodison asterisk ? We’ll be joined in the studio by EPL supremo Richard Masters, who will update us on the...

    Match Thread Manchester City v Everton - Team Prediction, Waffle, Match Report & MotM Poll

    That was really strange. It was as if DCL either wasn’t up for making what looked like the obvious run, or is totally knackered and just can’t bust a gut any more. It deffo wasn’t the version of DCL that played under Ancelotti.

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    The appeal’s over. The horse’s head has been put back in the box for the time being.

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    Agree, whatever happens in the appeal, the EPL have to dig in and defend everything done so far as being totally legit. If our brief is as clued up as we are led to believe, he should have spoon fed the appeal commission their get out of jail cards, that they could use to justify reducing the...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    I’ve just taken a different view from my previous understanding after reading the report. However they are presented, the breaches appear undeniable and in keeping with our board’s previous incompetence, wholly avoidable. If Everton ripped the report to shreds in the appeal, because it...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    Agreed, plus we apparently told the prem we would deffo sell player Y to compensate for the predicted breach. Then we didn’t, so the Prem got the right hump. I only got round to reading the actual commission’s report today, coz I’ve got a load of skirting boards I’m supposed to be painting...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    I’d say it’s not so much a case that we didn’t think we had breached. We must have known we had and were coming up with “constructive and creative” justification, as to how we could say, we didn’t think we had. One seemingly bonkers claim was, that Everton had paid the Prem £7.6 million owed...
