Can't find a match thread, so ... Most of our lot are either riddled with disease or crocked. Most of theirs are ugly grocks managed by the Mars Bar fetishist Pardew. They also have serial poppy dodger James MacLean. They beat us in 1968 thanks to an extra time deflected shot from Jeff Castle...

(Apologies, mods: used to be a 'snuffed it' thread but just can't find it.) Pat Sullivan died early last week. It wasn't unexpected - he'd just turned 94 and had been in poor health for a while. Uncle Pat was brought over to Liverpool as a baby in the 20's and started watching the Blues with...

When the going gets tough, I make my excuses and leave. This time, Professor Hawking has kindly given me the latest in time travelling transport, complete with wheels, seats and a few wooden crates of brown ale. I'm in charge, so I get to wear the peaked cap and a rather fetching uniform...

@Khalekan and some others have mentioned possibly the worst week in the club's history ... March 24th - 27th 1971. We were a delicate plant in that season - beyond dreadful in the league (plus ca change) but going well in Europe and the F A Cup. Greece (I'm told) provided a lousy pitch and, in...

Is it time to change the club's motto from the present one which is a bit of a mockery, to one which more accurately reflects the board's ambitions for the club - and themselves? His nos ipsi percutimus pecuniam , stulti, perhaps? Very roughly translated, it reads, "We're raking it in, suckers".

Appreciate that there are a couple of guys on here who outrank me in terms of years. But for the sake of sanity I have to say this: we are where we are because we are not remotely good enough to be better paced. Happy to go through a position by position comparison. Equally happy to defend...

This is inspired by 3rd generation. Some sort of beat combo and Bessie Braddock are as large as life in vraious commemorations along with any number of forgotten eejits. But Merseyside is as famed for anything for football and its greatest goal scoring exponent has a wee statue in the suburbs...

... that maybe noone else remembers. I'd like to say that we've all been there but maybe it's just this old bloke with cataracts, a sippy cup and a chair that smells suspiciously of pee. There have been a few games where a player has come up with something that just whacks the whatnot out of...

I've never called for an Everton manager's resignation or removal. But that's enough. Please get a real, fighting, Evertonian in till the end of the season and use the coming months to search for a realist to take over come June. I suggest Joe Royle. I feel dreadful saying this but some of...

After any bad run, it's inevitable there will be a splurge of critical posts. And why not? After all, you pays your money, you makes your noise. The things that get me are the absence of sad puppy photos and the often repeated belief that this group of players are capable of beating x, y & z...

One of the greatest regrets of my life is that, at the time, my family didn't have the dosh to afford a camera let alone a Filuming Tingy, to record what Bally did for this great club. I want to urge you to record some memories for your grandchildren of a bloke (hold your breath. Suspend your...

A couple of threads on here started stirring the memories and raised again the question of the better team. I'll start off by saying that for me (and it's a purely personal view) the best football I've watched at Goodison was played 1967 - 70. It was crowned with a title on a mad Goodison...

And so my 53rd season of supporting the boys approaches. Am I cynical, bitter, depressive, unkind to small domestic animals? Of course. But it has nothing to do with Everton: I'm just a miserable old git. I won't go into the best / worst moments; best / worse player etc. 'Look forward' is...

There's a new DVD out about the Greatest post war player we've had. If you want a stocking filler, it's available from St. Luke's church or from MerseyShop.com Current players: watch this and learn. You'll never be his equal but you might copy his passion.
