Branding exercises. Just another bs way of stealing money off hard working people.

Two words Frank Lampard uses regularly are 'work ethic' and that's what Iwobi showed on Saturday. If he keeps it up along with the rest of the team, he will hold his place and we will win more games and rise back up the table. Perhaps make a great cup run. I believe the manger and his team will...

Yeah. I was at both games. Lineker missed a sitter at Forest which is perhaps why @Joey66 blames him.

The biggest reason we lost the double, not just the title that season was the injury to Neville Southall. Mobby Bimms just wasn't at his level despite playing as well as he could.

He reminds me of when we signed Paul Power, at least in terms of impact on the team. I like his attitude and leadership and although initially surprised, I'm even more surprised at how he looks like he should have been here a long time ago.

Something went wrong with my telly. I was watching the usual Everton performance when it just switched over to Bayern Munich for some odd reason. Bayern won 3-1. How did Everton get on?

I can't see a difference between Townsend and Iwobi in terms of performance and even Theo Walcott before that. We're just not meant to have nice things, are we?

It might seem petty and small minded to some but I can't bring myself to refer to him by his name. Whatever he wins, however long he stays, as far as I'm concerned, I shall be referring to him as Our Current Manager or OCM for short.

Someone on Twitter said 'Evertonians. We aren't chosen. We're sentenced.'

I like Dom and I want him to stay but that shot accuracy thing is due to the fact he aims dead centre too often, giving the keeper a chance and is less likely to go for the corner of the goal, where it's possible to put it wide. So that stat is a bit misleading.

The thing is, we're there, right now. It's ours to keep or lose. Have the players got it in them to keep themselves there? We'll see. COYB

Rats and Des Walker are the two players I compare him to as well. Pace to burn off any striker or winger. His pace isn't like DCL where he takes a few strides to get up to speed. He hits top pace instantly and he's got gears to go through. A real speed merchant. Glad he's ours.

A 3-3 draw at Old Trafford and barely a 7 in the ratings. Funny lot, aren't we?

Well. That's the Clive Thomas incident finally repaid. Just 29 more to go...

I think we should call him Rex from now on. As in Tyrannosaurus.
