    Yeah, a bit early to start a match thread but; A charity fundraiser organised by Everton in the face of what seems from the outside as turbulent times for the club. I know the mood on here is low sometimes and people get very frustrated, but, this is what makes your club great, this is what...

    From the Away End - Crystal Palace v Everton Sunday 12 December 4.30pm

    "Everything under heaven is in utter chaos; the situation is excellent." So said Chairman Mao, although he was a Red, not to be trusted, and like Danny Murphy, spouted incomprehensible cack most of the time. Nonetheless, Everton start their long march to Fortress Selhurst on the back of a gutsy...

    Match Thread Brighton HA v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll.

    To be fourth, or not to be fourth, that is the question, Whether ‘‘tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous Hodgson, Or to take arms at the sea against the vermin, And by opposing, end them. To win, to sleep To sleep, perchance to dream Go Fourth my friends , Go...

    This months "When Saturday Comes is out today with a feature on the Everton v WBA game written by a Blue. Not so much about the game itself,more a commentary on the season so far. Decent read, nice pics and a sentiment that would gladden @davek 's heart. (I presume he has one?)

    Crystal Palace v Everton 31 January 2015 - From the Palace end.

    Everton v Crystal Palace - From the Palace End

    And it came to pass, finally, as the Artic Circle retreated north from laying waste around Walton Road, and Hurricane Kenwright ceased causing havoc around the ground, the brave souls from SE25 broke camp from their bivouac enclaves along the M6 and headed once more, with hope in their hearts...

    Everton v Crystal Palace - from the Palace End.

    As ever we travel in hope rather than expectation to my favourite away ground. Nevertheless, since we last played each other at Selhurst on November 9 hope has been taken as a rather more serious commodity than the jokey and fatalistic kind we endured during the first three months of the season...

    An invaluable guide for a visit to the Palace.

    For those Blues making the trip to Fortress Selhurst on Saturday I offer the following in the spirit of football fellowship. Who are deese again? Crystal Palace FC. Not to be confused with Buckingham Palace or Caesar's Palace. An original club were formed some time in the 1860's from...

    Blackburn Away tickets

    Everton have an allocation of 5000. I only qualify once they go on general sale. On past experience, (never been to Ewood Park) will there still be a few left for general sale or do I need to think of something else. (Cunning plan suggestions welcome.)

    Vaughan at Palace. Match 3 update

    Hello Blue Boys. Thought you might want an update on the lads progress. Another sound performance today against a pretty physical (if not actually dirty) Burnley. On another day we could have had a tonking, they hit the bar twice and Speroni made three fabulous saves.Vaughany had precious little...
