Re: The objective for the rest of the season
Whether do-able or not, and regardless of whether Forest get any deduction the aim should be to gain six points on them in the next eight matches.
That would leave us going into the last game a win away from going above them at the end of the season.
It's as simple as that.

Why do we need a left back? In Charlie Taylor we have a good quality Prem quality solid defender.

Very little. If Everton were to get some points back then we’d be having to catch teams who are running at around a point per game. To get to that level by the end of the season we’d need another 26 points from 17 games. The phrase "Too good to go down" probably applies to Everton in the current ci...

Basically, do we have to thank Roman Pavlyuchenko for now being a regular (sort of) in the Premier League?

One thing I don't understand is why some are still fighting in court to have their names cleared.
Surely anyone who got convicted using the Horizon system should have had their conviction automatically quashed due to all the evidence being unreliable.
