When did this become a forum to exclusively denigrate the club and its players?

It's a grand old team to support?

My arse.

it hasnt its a forum to express your opinions on allthings everton! wether good or bad!

and in my opinion if the forum is abit down on all things everton then maybe just maybe there is somthing wrong within the club!
 
Wash my hands with the lot of you.

If you lot are Everton fans, honestly. Have a ****ing word with yourselfs. We are meant to have character.

Most Liverpool fans support their team better than the shower of sh!te on here these days.

Bunch of no marks.
what r you getting upset for neon lad .you must know by now 90per cent on here have not got a clue about everton f.c , for crist sake , someone wanted us to sign mungo jerrys lad from aussie did ye see that,dont let it get ye down mate
 
I think we get frustrated with being just a decent team, our history and expectation demands higher. We want to be competing for trophies as we are everton and our motto is supposed to say it all. We are all passionate and i for one love this club.

It's not even about that for me - as I said in a thread this week I think 7th would be a great league position this year. I predicted 8th at the start of the season so it's above expectations for me.

No, my problem is with Phil Neville using the media again to lie to fans. He isn't an Evertonian, he would leave the club at the drop of a hat for more money, so why doesn't he just be bloody honest.

He's a good captain, he gives what he can on the pitch, but the man is a bloody idiot and an egotist where the media is concerned.

Compare Baines' comments to Nevilles. Baines thanks his teammates, which is correct and fine, whereas Neville has to throw his media titbit to the fans again. It's disingenuous, sickening and nonsensical.
 
I think you want the OS for pretty flowers, bunnies & rainbows. Besides, this is the best forum around according to EPL Talk!

So we're supposed to blindly adore a guy who would have trotted off to Spurs in the blink of an eye in January without a second thought if there was a slight chance of Tottenham offering an acceptable fee?

We're supposed to accept footballers are professionals, have no loyalty and chase the paycheque. Fair enough. But the reverse truth is that we should also be fairly sickened when footballers play the "I love the club" card.

Can't have it both ways. I don't "love" any Everton player anymore and haven't done for a long time; I simply respect them, because I know each and every one of them would leave given a better pay packet.

This isn't the 1980's anymore.

You say we're not Evertonians because we refuse to swallow this garbage? I say I am definitely an Evertonian - just not a complete mug.

First, prove it? Second, who wouldnt? Pay rise, better club, better aspirations - or atleast more realistic. Whats the point in supporting Everton if you dont trust any player? That is just silly.

*vomits*

This comes after a month of silence over the move to Spuds, didn't he get a titty lip over not being given the option? so the rumour goes.

I will stand by my word, he is an average player, with the same kind of motivation that Moyes has off the pitch, and that - is why he is captain, he will be an Everton Manager one day.

That kinda highlights the problem with this thread. Why do people think Neville goes around Finch Farm telling everyone he wanted to go? Like said in a different thread, that type of stuff is between player and manager. So unless Moyes is down the local pub spreading gossip, ignore it.
 
I'm not entirely sure where the animosity is coming from here. What has Neville done to earn the wrath of people around here? Say something positive and optimistic? I'm all for raging at the club when they lay a steaming pile of crap on the pitch but moaning and bitching over every little thing seems a tad overzealous.

Regarding his rumored move to Spurs, can someone provide a link to where he says he wanted to leave and wasn't allowed to? I thought he wanted to stay at Everton.

He may love the club, just not as much as United, he has never denied that he doesnt support United, and it may be unbelievable, but you can support more than one club. Also, even if you support the club, it doesnt make you want to stay at the club for ever. The player bases his career on these 10 years, its right for them to do what is best for them and their family.

Also, you ask him to be honest, well he was honest about Evertons transfer worries a few days ago, saying we have to sell to buy and improve - something which is true, and got slated for it. So what would you have him do? Either keep quiet - which is not what a captain does, tell the truth and have the moral of the team and fans go down, or lie (if he is doing) and keep everyone happy
