Anyone go to Robbie's event at Aintree last night.....?

[Clint Planet]

Yes, he said he is very impressed with the kids , also said he only wants players who have the will to be winners, players like Bally, and said he now understands the Alan Ball quote, " Once Everton has touched you nothing will be the same"

Fantastic, that.

Dave. Yes it sounds like we could be seeing a few breaking through.

S-W-O-O-N.

Catterick created it and 2 of his disciples HK and Joe Royle applied it. Now Bobby has brought it back. The passion and what it means to BE everton.

For some reason, Moyes's "People's club" words now seem so hollow

 

[Groucho]

I love Roberto Martinez

 

[Fensta]

He seems a sound fella, intelligent and thoughtful unlike most managers.

If only we could get some decent money into the club putting us on a level playing field I reckon he could be our Shanks/Busby - no-one would get near us.

 

[yelyah]

Massive man-crush on him.

The classy git!

 

[teameverton]

Yes was there, a very nice evening, and yes he did turn the ***** down , he said it didn't feel natural and it was something he didn't feel comfortable with, his words, and then to draw a laugh he said they also play in red.

I would love us to have a song with that in when we played the s---e, not going to happen but it would be great.

If only we had someone on the forum who writes songs, or rhymes???

 

[teameverton]

Looking that way haha, He said last night that 1 or 2 of young lads are ready for a first team call up, didn't name them, who do you reckon Dave ?

I would imagine its stone and defauru or however you spell the name!

folks should watch this. The things Bobby says are just golden

Is that the same interview where Bill said something like 'it took me 30 seconds for me to know David Moyes was the man for the job...for Roberto it was 40' or something like that?
Absolute bell.

That's not for this thread mate.

Whatever you think of the board and owner, we're all over Martinez in here.

That said, I do think we have to give some credit to BK. You have to accept his passion for the club and that would have certainly helped martinez want to join our club. IMO.

So far I am impressed though, there is a certain positive ambience about the place now. I think i'm right in saying that Goodison has seen bigger attendances than this time last season and i think we'll receive more tv appearances this year.

I'm a big fan of Roberto. Long may he prosper.

 

[goanblue]

I'd like to see young Long come in along Lundstram and or Grant

Chinese international?

 

[Clint Planet]

Chinese international?

You're fired.
