Did one exist between Everton under David Moyes and Man Utd under SAF..
Inever believed that it did but comments made by David Moyes suggested that when SAF then David Moyes answered, even to the point of being summoned to his house to be told which players Utd were taking,
The conduct of Utd in the final weeks of the transfer window leads me to believe that Utd certainly thought such an agreement existed.The conduct relating to the Fellaini bid was bizarre and of course the ramblings by David Moyes that players shold be allowed to fulfil their potential by being sold to Utd was disrespectful at best.
Ironically, David Moyes who was loved by so many Evertonians up to very recently treated Everton with far less respect than Utd under SAF ever did.
I would hate if Everton treated smaller clubs in the lower leagues in a similar matter.I would hope that we at least treat these clubs with respect and dignity. In future , I think we will see a lot more activity in the academy with players not being kept as long at the club and players being bought more often from the academies of teams in the lower divisions.
If Everton is ever to compete at football's top table it will be through the success of the academy rather than the shekels provided by some oil rich Arab.
