Re: Getting promoted too early
We didn't get promoted too early. We have completely messed up our recruitment, to follow a venture capitalist approach. Additionally, we have signed far too many wingers and still not replaced Cork. In particular, our ability to defend is hopeless. Also, we are too easily bullied all over the pitch...

Re: Jack Cork’s absence on Saturday
When Jack came on at Everton with just few minutes to go it was greeted with cheers from the Burnley fans that were every bit as pointed as the cheering of Muric every single time he touched the ball. With Muric, it was like that at Forest and at Salford too. That's a shame. The more they do it the...

Re: Everton match thread
So no signs of VK experimenting to try and stop teams bullying through our centre midfield. Unbelievable. At least he could have started Cork or Massengo alongside Cullen. He's quickly going from genius to a stubborn fool. Tresor and Berge in cm is as barmy as it gets.

Re: How do we salvage?
We need a complete reset. Every opposition manager knows that we can't beat a good press AND that we don't have the accurate long passing to go over it. So we are literally playing into their hands regularly. If we had THB and Muric we may have been more successful with the current style. I think we...
