    A song for Goodison

    While we have songs for the team and players - what could be a song about Goodison ? Something that could follow us to Bramley Moore and a way of remembering/ acknowledging our memories and history of the Grand Old Lady? Have an idea but sure others can come up with better!

    Time to get behind them

    We are rubbish. Probably the worst we have been in a long, long time. But if the atmosphere turns toxic on Sunday things will only get worse. I've posted on here in the past, and I truly believe this the ONLY reason we survived in the 90's and the 'Smith years' was the support of the fans . We...

    Goals from corners!

    What an improvement this season, a far cry from the last regime who couldn't care less about them. It's great to have that anticipation that something could happen, and while we don't want to be a West Brom and rely totally on them, a goal is a goal! “I always believe that a goal from open...

    Have you ever met a murderer?

    Pinched this from the Sunderland thread, one bloke named three who went to his school, then another bloke mentioned another three who had gone to the same school. Must have been a fun place. As an aside I haven't, anyone here?

    School cuts

    Don't know if anyone has noticed this on the news recently but take a look at this website if you have kids or are interested in the state of education. Just look what the government has planned for our city's schools in four years time. One example, Calderstones school to lose aroud 500k a year...

    Are we too nice?

    Thought this for ages, but after the Rojo tackle which was a cert red card, the fact that Gana just got up and tried to play on guaranteed the yellow and let the ref bottle it. How often do most players roll in agony and bang the floor which would have put the ref under enormous pressure to give...

    Scottish strikers

    What has happened to Scotland? Seeing Griffiths as their no. 1 strike is appalling. Growing up there was at least a dozen quality Scotland strikers vying for two places. From the top of my head I recall: Sharp, Gray, Dalglish, Nicholas, Brazil, McCoist, Mo Johnston, Black , McInally, McGhee...

    Everton fan in the Park End

    Thoughts are with the Evertonian in the Park End, obviously a serious incident with CPR being performed, best wishes are with his/her friends and family, took the shine off the day today. Hoping and praying all is ok, does anyone know how they are?

    Tickets for La Liga

    Thinking of going to Valencia v Bacelona on 23rd Oct. Anybody know how easy/ hard it is to get tickets? Want to avoid ticket sites as over 100 Euros but not sure how easy it would be directly from Valencia as tickets available only a couple of weeks before. Anyone been?

    Exodus 0n BBC2

    Apologies if this has ben posted - not been on here this week and couldn't find a thread on it. Has anyone watched it this week? The most powerful and moving documentary I have watched in years. Was willing each and every one of those asylum seekers to make after the suffering they have had...

    Footballers from the 70's

    Not sure if this has been done before, but looking through an old Panini album once I couldn't believe that some of the players were prime 'athletes' in their 20's and early 30's. Most look in their 40's at least. Can't imagine they made much from their image rights. Some examples below, can...

    Games you have missed

    Great result last!! But from a personal note first game I have missed in over ten years was gutting to miss it -atmosphere was not done justice on tv . Reminded me of missing the 2-0 derby win Ferguson/ Rideout the last time I had missed a game at Goodison. Prior to that the Watford cup final...

    A blast from the past

    Still in two minds over Roberto myself - got me thinking as to who he is most like from the past. After all if the modern day internet warriors had been around in the past would HK have survived? Remember those leaflets? Is he capable of turning it round? Drifting? Destroying us? Out of his depth?

    Priory Road last night

    What were the police playing at last night? About 20 of them milling about by the traffic lights chatting and doing sod all then not a single copper on the way past the coaches and cemetery and all the way to the car park. There was a few minor scuffles but it nearly got ugly, and if it had...

    Everton/GOT remembers

    Think this is a lovely touch by the club, what amazed me and brought a lump to my throat was the sheer numbers of lost blues this year, completely lost count there must have been hundreds. Nice touch listing them in elevens like a team sheet ( accident or a nice touch?) Got me thinking does...

    Things you haven't done because of Everton

    We all have our level of fanaticism about Everton, what have you not done because of Everton? Me? Turned down university offers from Sheffield Swansea and Nottingham so I could still go the game - went to Hope University instead! Ended a relationship there as girl was from South Wales and...

    Time to stop being nice guys

    Apologies if there is a similar thread somewhere!! As much as I hate it the players need to now start harassing refs and demanding red cards more - I mean how may should have gone this season? Cisse Walters Mangala Gomez off the top of my head. We make it easy for refs to show yellows by not...

    the liverpool diving ,cheating and influencing the ref thread

    Having actually watched the last two Liverpool games in full ( derby and Basel) the amount of diving and cheating has gone even beyond their usual disgraceful standards, Ballotelli and Sterling especially. Can any of you clever IT bods start posting clips on here to show these examples? E.g...
