We’ll definitely know on the 18th June when the new season fixtures are released!

I think Hutchinson came via a more circuitous route with West Ham and Sheff Utd before joining us. I think Beardsley and Ablett are the last ones who joined direct from Liverpool

I agree it would be a nonsense to call a stadium after Cary Grant’s real name…he’s from Bristol ffs. Or did you mean Leitch… Stay vigilant at all times.

Southall played in the loss at Luton and he got injured after it. Man Utd and Forest draws away from home killed us in that run-in before the Oxford game. Mark Higgins was playing for Utd in that game and cleared one off the line…we blew so many chances in that game and if we had won I think...

Stolen from Harold MacMillan when he was PM “Events dear boy,Events”. Tories being tories…

Oo-er…you’ve kicked it off now with that statement. Cue 50 pages of argument on who coined “Grand Old Lady” first and what is Commander Steve going to do about it. 😉

He has the brass neck to say there had never been any trouble in the 21 prior seasons in Europe…ransacked shop owners might disagree. There’s a couple of interesting comments BTL that he responds to as well. One points out that trouble and mayhem follows them around wherever they go but never...

That’s not going to happen so we either adapt to the reality or continue to be purist about it and watch our rivals win the trophies instead.

My Chelsea supporting mate was unsure about celebrating winning given the quality of opposition throughout. He said he had heard of hardly any of the teams involved in the competition. I told him I would kill(metaphorically) for Everton to win it.

“Ah Shaddap ya face”. Joe Dolce says hi…

I don’t think you are but we do need to strengthen in the close season. We drew 15 games which was the highest in the league and those clubs challenging for the champions league places all won 20+ games.Converting some of those draws into wins(Bournemouth,Utd and Ipswich loss and draws is worth...

Very good and never seen it before…great find. A few mentions of religion(not related to St.Lukes) and Everton being described as “used to be a catholic club”. I suppose being formed by a non-conformist Methodist church creates that impression. Even Peter Reid gets in on the act! “Everton...

I would ditch GOT from the pre and post match playlist as well and just leave it as a terrace chant. I would include “There she goes” as a pre-match song and think about “In my life” by the Beatles prior to kick-off. Its words are poignant but reflective of our thoughts of Goodison and people...

“Fair price…better than Tesco”.

Just hold a trophy celebration on the day instead.

Ha ha…I was in Crofts before the City game as well and it had a deathly pallor with so few lights on. Fortunately, the brightest part was the bar!

Came close to being in Iron Maiden but took up martial arts instead.

It could have been better at the end and Tony Bellew was not good enough IMHO regardless of our Latin motto. You have your opinion and others have theirs so why not just leave it at that.

I expected a bit more as a grand finale(the last 10 minutes) and IMHO that was not it. I’ve had a stern word with myself and still feel the same way.
