The Johnson era can be summed with his deals with 3 goalkeepers. He bought Simonsen for a record for a teenage keeper £3million from the other club he owned and ripped himself (everton) off and got himself (Tranmere) the deal of the century in one move. He arranged to meet Martyn to...

Moyes has said he was approached the week before the derby at Anfield. Forget any conspiracy, does anyone honestly believe Ferguson announcing to his club and Moyes that he was retiring months before the end of the season would have been kept secret from January til May when it was coming out...

If he wasn't a complete nutter who showed no commitment to his job, he'd have been a real success here last season and a Champions League club would have come and got him in the summer, so we wouldn't have had him this season anyway.

We've got to get used to it. Spurs have had exactly the same with Bale for a few years. Arsenal have had it with a few players over the last few years. And even Liverpool are starting to get it with Suarez now. If you're not United, City or Chelsea, everytime a player hits some form the...

The merchandising side of the club had been loss making for years. Way back when Johnson took over he was shocked to find the club was so far behind the times it only had about a 50k merchandising budget and nowhere proper to sell it, hence him building the Everton store (unfortunately while...

The league is a write off, but we've still got the Europa League and FA Cup. I think he should pick a list of average players, announce his interest, let old melted candlestick face spend his budget on them and then buy the decent players in the summer without the Spuds hijacking the bids.

His family had little interest after John Moores stepped down. They gave us Carter and allowed us to decline for 20 years before they sold us to Johnson, but not before they showed zero ambition and prepared us for the all seater era with a very cheap option of just sticking seats in and...

We've not just got a problem with injuries, it's who is injured that's the problem. We don't have any creativity, Pienaar has been out, Arteta out, Billy out, Osman out. We'll never win without creativity. On top of that our goalscoring midfielder has been forced out wide to become a dire...

I'm interested in this 'self financing' thing. Does this essentially mean that every penny we make will just be sent out again to pay for the stadium, possibly leaving us with no financial benefit? Goodison (the land and fixture and fittings) isn't mortgaged, it's the ticket sales that the...

Here's an article I wrote on FollowEverton.com - New Stadium Debate Before you read this (if you can be bothered, I do go on a bit) and complain about any inaccuracies or disagree with anything, I’m not going to claim what I’m writing is the gospel, I’m writing my opinions, and if it creates a...

We're no more a selling club than any other club. Back in the days of Johnson we sold players to keep the banks at bay and stay afloat regardless of the manager's view of the impact on the footballing side, now at worst we sell to boost the transfer funds and it's a footballing decision made...

Not necessarily. The tickets are sold to the football family etc at face value, they can be sold at the same price to the fans of the teams playing without any financial impact on the FA. Likewise I'm sure the corporate sponsors don't sponsor the FA Cup or Carling Cup for the tickets, they...

Possibly, but with the potential backing of the FSF who supported a campaign against the 39th game which helped effectively stop that idea before it started as well as potential backing of MPs the campaign is hopefully beginning to gain some weight. Obviously the amount of backing the campaign...

I know I've posted it before, and thanks to everyone who has signed the petition and sent suggestions, but I know there are more blues out there who haven't signed, so I'm hoping after this update on the campaign I can persuade more people to sign the petition and help spread the word. The...

He never messed up NTL, it was poor timing, NTL invested heavily in European telecoms and over the summer we were finalising the deal the European telecoms market crashed and NTL were on the verge of collapse so obviously couldn't invest in us. King Dock was Gregg's play toy and pay day, he said...

A website has just been set up. Home Page Artices are needed so if you've got any stories of how you were affected by the allocation please contact the site.

A facebook group has been started. Updates will be posted on there, everyone is welcome to join. I want to go beyond a petition so any ideas are appreciated. Respect Campaign | Facebook Pass it on to every football fan you know. Thanks for your support.

To: All Football Fans The FA have called for respect in football. Respect referees, respect competitions by not fielding weakened teams, they've used the tag line 'Lose Respect, Lose the Game'. As an Everton fan, having seen many Evertonians being forced to pay hundreds above face value to...

Main Article On FollowEverton As we approach the FA Cup final, the best achievement of Moyes’ 7 year reign so far, I felt a look at how this once rookie manager has brought a bit of, in his words, ‘class and dignity’ back to the top end of the table. Still only 38 years old and having only...
