    Bad ref decisions - for and against - season 2025/26

    It was about as cast iron a penalty as you could ever see to be fair, it would be a stretch to try to call that one corruption.

    Sounds like a hit piece to me.

    Beeb noticing Everton…..veiled hit piece or genuine reporting….

    Yes it does! 'The biggest challenge facing Everton this summer was how best to overhaul a threadbare squad following the departure of nine senior players, including first-team regulars Abdoulaye Doucoure, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Jack Harrison and Ashley Young'. Has anyone actually read this thing...

    Some of our fans have incredible levels of paranoia.

    Beeb noticing Everton…..veiled hit piece or genuine reporting….

    Apart from where it says 'Spending between January 2021 and January 2025 was effectively non-existent, with the club instead making £86m in profit from player sales to help balance the accounts' you mean?

    2025/26 Tyler Dibling

    I wouldn't mind having the sort of massive problems they've got to be honest.

    An expert on German football experts sounds like a very niche job.

    So weird that people can’t just be normal about him.

    2025/26 Harrison Armstrong

    He’s only 18, it’s hardly a disaster to go back to learning from top level Players at 19.

    Rate Everton's Transfer Window

    I think there are some fair points in there personally. 9 players sounds a lot but when you break it down there’s 2 keepers to replace the 2 who left, a back up left back with very little experience, a player we already had on loan etc. we’ve done some good stuff but there’s no need to get...

    New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

    Yeah pal, but unless you’re a Liverpool based company pal, not many companies are going to choose to put their head office in L3 pal.

    New Everton Stadium - Hill Dickinson Stadium

    Nobody’s paying premium prices for office space in 2025, it only gets used a couple of days a week!

    In danger of getting carried away?

    There has been a creeping increase in people clapping the attendance announcement and on Wednesday there were grown adults shouting SIUUUU when Alcaraz celebrated. Relegation is what the club needs to cleanse us of this plague.

    VAR

    Those 2 examples are exactly why i was making the point about if not being that simple. The 800m is a non contact sport and rugby is a contact sport, the rules in football aren’t as clear cut as either because you can have some contact but only a limited amount, they don’t work as comparisons...

    2025/26 Vitalii Mykolenko

    I don’t say this to criticise mykolenko but it does make me laugh when people act like if you miss 3 days of training you have to be classed as ‘coming back from injury’ for the next 6 months.

    Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

    Well it does if you think about it a tiny bit. I assume the suggestion is that Soucek would take up the 'number 10' role in the way Fellaini did, and so the likes of Ndiaye and Alcaraz would be shifted wide, pushing Dibling down the pecking order.

    Summer Transfer Window 2025 Thread

    If that's the case it's hard to see it as a good use of funds though. It's a decent chunk of money on someone who will have no resale value and is on big wages. It only really makes sense if he's seen as a key part of the team. If he's just cover/a rotation option it just doesn't seem to be a...

    Transfer Rumour Tomas Soucek

    He's a decent player and wouldn't be the worst signing we could make, but it's a weird one for me and doesn't strike me as being part of a coherent strategy.

    2025/26 Harrison Armstrong

    That's a different thing though? Thinking it's better for his development to stay here doesn't make him going to the Championship a waste of time, it just means you don't think it's the right thing. Obviously you'd hope he, his coaches, his advisors, his manager etc have a better idea of what...

    2025/26 Harrison Armstrong

    I don't really see how it's a waste of time? I could get an argument that he should be in the team here (I don't agree, but I could get it) but I can't really understand how going and playing 30/40 games in the Championship would be a waste of time?
