Re: Welcome to the Everton dressing room Tarky

Gonna take a punt and say most commenting on here are middle aged to OAP and spend 95% of the time wearing a polo shirt/football top that barely contains their beer belly, with a pair of old school blue grandad jeans, and either sh*t black shoes or slippers? :lol:

Re: Summer 2021 Transfer Window Rumours - Links - Discussion

1. Four goals against Man City in the Champions League. Ivory Coast international and a ringing endorsement from Lionel Messi no less that he is a good player. 2. De Bild says he regularly had bids in for him from Bundesliga clubs over the past few seasons. He's turned them all down. He's been play...

No, Ian Wright stayed with Mitchell Thomas at his house at Lanehead (think Clockhouse, just before Kibble)

+1. Hendricks is a perfect example of what Dyche's Burnley is all about. There's no 'I' in 'TEAM'.

Re: Bailey Peacock Farrell

True that he had half a season for us but wasnt overly impressive. It was suggested early on that Bielsa wasnt overly keen and would've been playing Jamal Blackman regularly instead if he hadnt broken his leg. Casilla was signed because BPF couldnt be relied on (although Casilla threw a few in towar...

Re: Traffic/parking fines

With nearly all these sorts of fines there is an appeal process whereby you'll either have the fine cancelled or be told to pay it at the original cost.

Always worth sticking an appeal in but never ignore them, you'll only end up in trouble further down the line.

50/50 appointment for me, he could do well for us but he could equally just as much be a massive disappointment and cost us more than a few quid.

Good player and has been better than I thought he was going to be for the last two seasons. I'd say valued more around £20million and there's a chance he could be allowed to leave if we get the lad from Hamburg to add to the others we've signed. Would be an odd pairing for you with Vokes but it coul...

It's what you get when players leave clubs because too many fans think they shouldn't and get all hot, bothered and bitter about it.

Leeds fans are spitting feathers! It makes it all the sweeter. Really?
