Gray was unused for the first month of the year before he was sold in September last season. And at a time where we barely had any available attackers. I remember finding it a bit ridiculous.
Significant for me that he shone again yesterday while Peter Beardsley was looking on: the last player for me to get us on our feet every time he got the ball.
I like Wayne and loved watching him , his talent was glorious and I feel privileged to have watched him play . I also have been present on away games with his family and they are and have always Been massive Evertonians .
I doubt you’ll find...
And this illustrates more than anything the fact that the club was far too cautious in making Hill Dickinson a mere 53,000 capacity.
60,000, at a bare minimum, should have been the capacity.
I have no doubt the new owners, or subsequent future...
He also came back to us when he was broken down for his own ego and that nostalgic snake oil salesman that used to run this club lapped it up. He might be an Evertonian but his career came before the club (I don't blame him for that, btw) so some...
Dunc was boss yesterday ya arl arses. Rooney on the other hand looked rightfully awkward as hell being there, he isn't no Everton legend, great footballer but no legend of ours.
Ferguson won something with us, Rooney left to win things elsewhere. In terms of who has done more for Everton, it's illogical to argue for Rooney. I think Ferguson's "Mr Everton" persona is overblown but, as an FA cup winner for us and with...
Sorry @Eggs I agree with you on a lot of things, but I can’t on this particular issue. I was never chuffed to see Rooney score and win things with United. It hurt so much. He was a once in a lifetime generational talent, who was a blue and we...
You enjoyed his success at Manchester United? I don't know if you are trolling or being serious but I shall respond in any event.
Where did I state that Ferguson was a better footballer than Rooney?
For his faults, Ferguson contributed more to...
They'd all had a drink and Duncan has always been a bit of a cheerleader. I'm sure the crowd weren't offended that he was trying to drum up some extra atmosphere. At least he would shake your hand or pose for a picture. A lot of the others looked...
I get the reservations about Ferguson but at least he played a big part in Everton avoiding relegation in 97/98 when scoring a good amount of goals on the run in.
It's embarrassing to even mention securing premiership status as something to...
Agree.
Wayne Rooney is a Manchester United legend sadly.
I was amazed and disgusted that he was present yesterday plus the on field interview with Bellew was embarrassing.
