2025/26 Dwight McNeil

[Swartzy]

He'd have ben ok first season, just like with us. Then he falls asleep a bit.

You should take note

Worst thing is, you can guarantee Moyes will play him over George

 

[Alan Whittle]

@Alan Whittle your club has made a lot of enemies here today by fumbling this, sad to say.

Yes, I daresay. I'm not sure "fumbling" is the right word. It seems deliberate But a deal isn't done until it's done. I blame the distinct lack of gentlemanly behaviour in football these days.
When Alf Common moved from Middlesbrough to Sunderland for £1000 chaps kept their word. Now that the lower classes are involved nothing surprises me anymore.

Made up that dwight is staying me

Probably won’t get much game time, unless we get injuries

 

[windymiller]

None of this farce seems to be McNeil’s fault, perhaps when he again appears in an Everton shirt we should give him some support!

This is true. Much as I wanted him gone, especially for that fee, he was prepared to leave and the deal collapsing is nothing to do with him.

 

[Bob Latchford]

Disappointing it fell through, but things like this happen every window. Felt too good to be true, and was.

The real disappointment will be if Moyes continues to play him. The club have invested £40 million on Dibling and now have an option with George. They will make mistakes, they need to develop, but they need to be given the opportunity. Moyes playing a player in McNeil, who clearly has no long terms future at the club, over potentially exciting signings would be criminal.

The complete failure to track back in the Leeds game should be the silver bullet. Should never play for the club again.

Think after Leeds he’s done, a 19yr old kid who’s not even a winger took his place Saturday he he didn’t make it off the bench

 

[Joey66]

so it’s on palace mate not us

cos everyone as blames us

That's what I googled Palace agreed the price then moved the goalpost - Dwight passed his medical - papers in on time - then Palace want a loan deal with the view to buy at the end of the season ..... not prepared to pay no fee just his wages

 

[Alan Whittle]

You're going to have to give us at least three more Crystanbul style victories over the RS to let this go pal.

What?? Without Dwight???

Maybe it's just the pure rage at the fact he's still here with us that's speaking, but I do think your lads fumbled it badly here mate.

You can redeem yourselves over the summer though, just saying, put a good word in yeah xx

We'll be too busy organising a Strand Larsen auction free for all.

 

[Rita_Poon]

We left it way too late to play hardball and the deal exploded in our faces like one of those fake cigars in a black and white silent movie.

Absolutely top-class slapstick from the Exceptional Operators.

wrong again...

 

[PhilRegan]

Can this lad play fullback
