It'll be McAtee and Fellows...
I still believe TFG will improve us and this was always going to be a huge bump in the road and likely the hardest window to negotiate.It's things like when Branthwaite's injury news came out and you think 'not again' why us? and of course that isn't the owner or the lads fault and you just want something positive to hang on to. It doesn't stop my day to day personally but appreciate it can affect people's moods and general wellbeing. A club owner is never going to understand that aspect even if they appreciate it exists

New manager/owner/recruitment team…then because of the mess of club 14 odd players contracts ending at once.
From Jan window on as we hopefully get better they should become easier to spend and attract quality

Think we need 2 new reactions to hit:
1. The "overreaction" button &
2. "I don't think this ones a blue" button
There is a difference between "would have" and "were"Erm, we would have been relegated without Doucoure's goal. And before that if we hadn't come back from 0-2 against Palace.
But I guess you are happy with that.
I have this recurring dream, whereby our new, super savvy owners, monopolise the US tournament publicity. Upon our arrival in the States, 4 high profile, but anonymous transfers are announced. Their identities are strictly umbongoed.
The only information given, is that we have signed 2 superb full backs, a midfield galactico and a right winger who makes peak Gareth Bale look pedestrian.
Global TV coverage regarding the tournament is all about Everton’s transfer market genius. The international superstars are all said to be on their way to the US, to be unveiled and join their new team mates.
Flight tracking web sites crash under the strain of traffic. Jim White is hoarse, appearing on a non-stop transfer show special, calling it, the most audacious transfer swoop ever. Paul Merson is interviewed and says that we’ve completely broken the transfer market forever.
Bobble posts a cryptic video featuring Moyes on this thread. He says nothing, pulls a dusty suitcase full of banknotes, bearing Arteta’s face, from underneath a cobweb covered bed. The bedroom is plastered with old publicity posters for Joseph and his Technicolour Coat, faded pics of Betty Turpin and long-expired season tickets to the boy’s pen.
Finally, making his exit, Moyes reaches for his pocket and casually throws a knife into a bin. Then, just like an old James Bond movie promo, he turns round menacingly, now holding a massive, fully loaded, Magnum 45.
Who the 4 players are and how we do in the tournament remains a total mystery though. Just as I get to that point, I am constantly woken, by the now all too familiar sogginess, of my newly dampened bedsheets.
Read into that, what you will.
Already consulted Freudian experts. Apparently, one of Freud's theories was that people dream about things that are too embarrassing or uncomfortable for them to admit on a conscious level.I'll leave that one to Freud, thanks.
