you feel like you belong

TBH, I think all that stuff is complete baloney. It's the showbiz side of football that has to be done now.

I like the feller, I think he's genuine about coming here, but all that ^^^ business is PR.

I'm sure Reidy posted something similair about Martinez 'getting it' about a week before he signed up as our new manager.

Like the way he's "got" us from afar the awareness to understand the entity of Goodison the special experience borne of a club first in it's city with roots deeper and stronger than any in the top division.

At this place this magical Avalon of the english game where glorious history formed in the purest football times not tainted or sneered at because of honours "bought" defiance remains. Barren these years may have been but true evertonians respect the likes of Utd, Arsenal and others but will never truly accept they are bigger or better knowing it is just a matter of time.

This has stolen his heart witnessing the thunder echoing from the great stands about the turf of Dixie, Mercer, Labone and Ball has made this intelligent young mans mind - apologies to Villa and Liverpool - but it was no contest, he was chosen.

Not sure mate. He seems to get it. "Envelopes" & "Philospheees", then I would be really worried!

Oh yeah, it's not on that cringeworthy level, like. I just think all the 'special feeling' stuff is the sort of tripe these managers are advised to say to get ease their way into a club. I think he genuinely does *get* that what we hold dear is footy that's pleasing on the eye.

Brilliant. Like an everton inflected introduction to a chapter of Game Of Thrones. Fancy doing our press releases mate?
