Chosen one

[GrandOldTeam]

So you support Wigan, Rangers, Salford Red Devils and Everton.

Can you stop trolling a member? Particularly via rep?

Thanks.

I'm glad the footballing gods smiled kindly on you mate.

Today is exact 30 years ago that I found out I was a chosen one. Wednesday 6th of March 1985, Everton v Fortuna Sittard in the ECWC. The day that Everton found their way to my heart. Haven't looked back ever since. Can fairly say it as been a rollercoaster ride since that first day. But one I wouldn't have wanted to miss for all the money in the world.

Thank you Everton, for enriching my life. Truly a special club and thank you for chosing me as one of the privileged few.

Last time I was in Sittard's ground was 2/3 years ago when they beat Sparta.

Having a really bad season aren't they ?

Im not trolling anybody, Im using the feature to display my displeasure at the things hes posting.

Is that not what the rep system is for?

Ah. I see.

Well, if after all this time you still genuinely don't understand the rep system, I'm going to have to remove it from your account.

Since we've got relegated in the 2000/2001 season, things have gotten from bad to worse. Fighting bankruptcy, winding up orders, points deduction, talks of mergers, losing our pro license and staggering debts. Off the field we've won all our battles. On the field it's a drama. This season probably the worse ever footballing wise. Standard of the Dutch leagues is dropping drastically with every passing season. Attendances are on a massive downward slide for the last two seasons.

Still, there's good hope we have the worse behind us. Our board is strangely confident about our future. A team of wealthy investors are ready to take the club back to its former glory. The ambition is to be back in the Dutch Premiership within three season.

Question is, have we finally managed to find that pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, or merely another new false dawn?

Like my favourite Dutch team Sparta I think you will find it tough to get back to the Eredivisie.

I thought Sittard was a lovely litte town and enjoyed a ggod chinese in the square.

The ground was suprisingly modern but it's a bit out of town, but on the plus side was easy to get back on the motorway and into Germany.

Yeah, Sparta is another team who do belong in the Eredivisie, looking solely at the size and history of the club. If the rumours about the investors prove to be true, I have no doubt we'll manage to get back into the big time.

Probably a bit before your time DT but do you remember a player called John Clayton , very skillful No10 who Fortuna signed from Plymouth Argyle ? Used to be a friend , believe that he loved his time there.

Of course I remember John Clayton. Scored the winner at home against Ajax in his debut match. Left us because he was feeling homesick. Moved to Volendam ffs!

Used to have a great careers with Fortuna on Football Manager. Looking after their results (although I barely know who's playing in your team now) ever since

I always have a soft spot for Dutch football players and your national team, so glad to have you on board.

Was at that game you were lucky to start life off as an evertonian in the glory days.
What a time we were going out beating everybody.
I think at one point we were playing every 3 days with replays and looking as fit and hungry as lions knocking everyone aside

Fast forward a generation and our team is too tired to play Thursday then sunday. Remember only 1 sub back then as well (tended to be Kevin Richardson, a very underrated player for us or Alan harper who never let us down).
