When was it?

Dues to you and Moyes for being an annoying team, but when was the last time we all gasped at the consistently effective and exciting Everton?

Is Moyes great?

Really?

Genuine here mate.

No poking.

Bobble head or not.
And even before twitch, it was never boring down here.

Never.

I've watched us as bad as bad can be, but never been bored.

I'm wondering about the excitement at Goodison, 87 was a while back.

We were free flowing against Liverpool. :)

Have a nice Christmas bud, but please don't kick teams when they're down.
Spurs are a rich club, and have spent and indeed sold heavily. We still managed to finish above you fairly regularly though, and the season has a long way to go yet.
All the best.

Please, I ain't kicking anyone, it's not in me, honest.

It's a simple question...

The reason I ask it is because Everton, as I grew up, were with us as the old 'top 5' now its different and I wonder how yous are taking it.

We are trying as hard as possible to get back to that level and I wonder if the whole 'Moyes is doing a great job but actually achieving nothing' is good for you.

[Poor language removed] me, this Everton innit?

EFC?!?!?

I hear all the time about Moyes, but the man has done nothing at all.

You consistently have bigger crowds than 90% of the rest of us, so the fan base is there, you have a name, a massive name, you have a history (and if you know your history...) some come on, when do you get to the point where you ask what's going on?

I'd actually beg to differ on this point.

Give most any other manager the transfer budget he's had since he's been here and then ask them to achieve the results he's achieved.

You'd find a very short list of managers who could have achieved that and that includes Sir Alex, Wenger, etc....
 
When did you last do anything? You're one of the big 5 too, you've won a league cup or two in the last 20 years?

We play better football than we're given credit for, my answer to your question would be the first 20 minutes of the Bolton match on Sunday.
 

We've discussed this to be fair.

Moyes' job was to try and get the club off the ground where others had failed to do so.
He's certainly put us back on the map without doubt.

We haven't played incredible football underneath him, and every fan is aware of that, but things take a while longer to develop when you have the budget we have.

We're having to add players a step at a time where other clubs with money can add the missing pieces in one swoop.

Moyes probably knows what he wants, but isn't necessarily in a position where he can get it.

Injuries aren't helping our cause either, as it's been a long time since Moyes was able to pick the 11 players he wanted to.

When he has options regarding the squad, it might just be possible to increase the level of quality in our football, but to be fair to him, he has little to choose from at the moment, and the first years were mainly spent building, one brick at a time.

What results?

What?

A 4th where nothing happened afterwards when you lost to Valencia?

A complete season of effort washed out in 90 minutes.

You are EVERTON, can you really accept that?

I admire your loyalty, I really do, but come on.

We have won as much as you - jack, I can't claim more.

But we try to play good football, and we do.

I just don't get how regardless of the money situation you just accept a rotten show.

Come on, its Everton innit?

Don't expect to win the league, we don't, don't expect to be better than your annoying neighbours, we don't, but play some football, fooking hell live up to the name.
 
Mate, you're on a windup and more than likely are going to find yourself out on the street if you keep it up.

You asked a question and I answered it very simply. Apparently you didn't understand or didn't want to understand.

Either way, not my problem. In the meantime, Spurs have won what playing entertaining and attractive football? Really haven't got a leg to stand on do ya?

Consider yourself warned.

Thank you.

Well I had a big old post typed out there and didn't post it i case I was banned!

Look, if I was here giving you [Poor language removed] for no reason I'd understand, but I want a planet where you, Spurs and Man City rule, and Liverpool, Manchester United and the filthy gypsy whore s lags are laughable clubs.

I ain't a Wum.

All the best to EFC.

You deserve better...
