Ancelotti is our manager! There is a lot to be positive about.

Why would you inflict this life time of pain on your offspring?

My lad is 12 and isn't much interested in football. I've spent years trying to force him to watch games/highlights and he's had every top going. I occasionally get asked "did we lose again?", and that's the height of his interest. However, I'm glad I failed. There is very little joy to being a football fan of most clubs, especially this lot.

Saw an article by Pirlo before crediting Ancelotti with making him as a player,little nuggets like that make me positive,not saying he can turn water into wine though,hello Tom

We're the original' in so many things, with history and z patina that could never be bought by the plastic clubs. We're always here and soon people will be talking about that as we start to do things.

Everton FC maintain a fairly low profile in the USA so when they look to be circling the drain none of my associates know to capitalize upon my misery.

Looking toward next season, it's easy to be optimistic after the season we've all just enjoyed. Finishing 12th was an outstanding outcome in a league that contained some brilliantly talented opposition sides...Norwich, Watford, Villa, Newcastle etc.
I wouldn't get ahead of ourselves though, some very, very good teams have just been promoted and these will present some challenge to our team of brave lion-hearts. Is achieving 12th again remotely possible?...well, fingers crossed!!

SO much to look forward too!!!

Tell her about blue bill and the boys pen. Nary a dry eye at my home when I tell my kids about it.
