    Everton Transfer Thread 2016

    Perhaps you missed the bit where I said 'imagine' twice o_O We don't have a sniff without CL footy to offer and a first team wage structure based predominantly around 6 figure sums instead of 5.

    Everton Transfer Thread 2016

    His last article on this very site, read the last line: https://www.grandoldteam.com/2016/08/17/usmanov-everton-da-ili-nyet/ Once you've done that, FFS go and boil your head so the rest of us can discuss some transfers, make-believe or otherwise.

    Upper Bullens - very back row

    I sat up there for the first time on Saturday as it happens, just above the Villa supporters. Notwithstanding the pillar in the middle of the stand, the view was fine; lids around me were sound; all good. Only problem is that if you're 6ft+ and sat next to two people who are of a similar...

    Gerard Deulofeu

    Same as any other contract. The clause applies to the clubs, but the deal still needs his signature to go through. Ergo, literally NOTHING to worry about over and above any other player's contract situation, provided he is content to remain here instead of go back to Barca over the course of...

    Gerard Deulofeu

    You are quite right. I think a lot of the worry on here is because people naturally presume that if Barca come calling for a player, it is a given that said player will want to go. What they are perhaps not considering is that there is now a fair bit of history between Gerard, Barca and...

    Gerard Deulofeu

    Can't help but disagree with this I'm afraid. Look at the names on the Spanish squad list that Mikel had to surpass and the level they were all playing at, while he was at his peak. The decisions not to include him were borne out by what that squad won during that period. They blew everyone...

    Remembrance Sunday..

    Political point-scoring firmly to one side, nice one to any GOT members who showed up at St George's plateau yesterday. It's always a great turnout, but considering the toilet weather yesterday, it was especially touching to see the crowds undiminished and in typically fine fettle.

    Who should we get shut of in January

    Hence why I said understudy i.e. anyone who trains to take the place of another in case of need. You're preaching to the choir if you think I have anything against Barry. He gets slated by a lot of our fans despite the fact, as you correctly identify, he snuffs many attacks out almost at...

    Who should we get shut of in January

    Ah, so you reckon it would be his preference (as opposed to the club's decision to offload)?

    Who should we get shut of in January

    Why Besic mate? He's the natural understudy to Barry, who isn't likely to remain here forever himself.

    Who should we get shut of in January

    McGeady and Pienaar. The latter I would not wish to wave off on poor terms, given some of the moments he has brought us over the last 8 years, not to mention his singular ability to bring the best out of Leighton, but fact is he's ready for the knackers yard now. I don't bear any ill will...

    GOT Needs Your Help

    And that is why I didn't begrudge chucking a few quid your way to help keep the forum going. It's in good hands while user experience is prioritised above a quick fix to the funding question. Fair play to you mate.

    Conor McAleny.

    Thereby giving us back the headache of finding a long term replacement for Leighton, barely half a season after pulling out the stops to get him to sign a new long term deal? I don't think so mate.
