    Ha ha...the Intertoto...wait, what !?!

    Um, yeah ... nothing like a bit of the ol' ELO to get you calmly chucking your stereo out of the nearest available window. As qualifying via the Intertoto is such a jolly, I'd suggest we settle for that now and send our first team squad on a well earned holiday ... on second thoughts, that...

    December fixtures

    I've checked the official site and there's no information on that yet. They generally go on sale 2 to 3 weeks before the game, so you should check again nearer the end of November.

    December fixtures

    It will be difficult to get a ticket in the Everton section, Nik - the demand is so high that they sell out fast, and the first ones always go to people who can provide proof that they've been to other matches (such as the recent one in the Ukraine). I don't think they'll go on general sale.

    Hibbert?

    Hear, hear.

    Hibbert?

    He's a good marker and can play even top quality wingers out the game, but the way we play now - i.e. not just hard to beat but looking for the win, going forward, keeping possession - he's getting found out. Despite the stick he gets he always shows up, though, so I admire him for that. He...

    What is Operation Goodison Excercise?

    I get it ... Wyness gets himself wheeled to the back of the stands, eats all the pies, then smokes his head off in the toilets, and all before half time. No wonder the fans don't like him.

    What is Operation Goodison Excercise?

    I take it Wyness is a heavy smoker.

    What is Operation Goodison Excercise?

    I was at a match last season when they announced "Operation Goodison is commencing", the blues then charged up the field and scored. A few minutes later they announced that "Operation Goodison is over." The timing was impeccable.

    Who'd Win In A Fight?

    Nah, the Upper Bullens has too much of a height advantage.

    Penalty Shootout Takers

    One of my mates had his boot come off as he took his kick ... the ball bobbled along barely hard enough to reach the goal ... luckily for us, the 'keeper had flung himself to his right to save my mate's boot! The look of confusion on the keeper's face as he lay there staring at this boot in his...

    Ticket plea

    You'll be lucky to get one for the Everton section. I read earlier that the official tour operator has been telling people their trips are cancelled because demand was too high. Suits's idea is your best hope.

    Carling Cup: Worthwhile trophy to chase or waste of time?

    It's the rs's best chance this year, so it would be nice to deprive them of it. Let's wait for the draw ...

    Carling Cup: Worthwhile trophy to chase or waste of time?

    I think he's been sitting on the bench listening to people chanting his name and has gotten a little bit carried away with it all, and he was never the calmest character to begin with. I can't fault his effort, but I don't think charging around trying to win the game single-handedly is a typical...

    Carling Cup: Worthwhile trophy to chase or waste of time?

    With the squad we have now we should be able to put out a reasonable team in all tournaments, but the league is our bread and butter and we can't afford to fall behind, and then it's the UEFA Cup, for me. I certainly wouldn't be resting players in league or EUFA games to help our Carling Cup...

    Our Most Vital Player...

    It's not just his ability - or his goals - that I like. I think Cahill's attitude and the energy he plays with, and the way nothing or nobody intimidates him, helps bring out the best in the players around him. We beat Liverpool 3-0 last year (in case nobody noticed :D ), but my favourite...

    Arteta question

    So, what's the connection, Terry?

    Arteta question

    He was young player who didn't settle, for one reason or another. He's settled now. There are no 'transfer goings on'.

    Leighton Baines Injury Update

    Don't look at me, I was hoping one of you would have heard something by now. I just hope it's nothing serious, because this lad is a star.
