Re: ARTICLE: Dwight’s right for Everton

Do you honestly think the manager had a say once the owners saw the colour of Everton's money? He didn't have a release clause, had years left on his contract and would have benefitted us to keep him. We didn't need to sell him and, if we get promoted his value would have increased. Chirrup on abou...

Re: ARTICLE: Dwight’s right for Everton

I wonder how many times people have written Everton off since they were reported to the top flight in the 1950's? Deep down you know they got very lucky and, by all rights, should have gone down last season. Only their massive over spending kept them up by the skin of their teeth. If you can't see ...
