Asda have kicked me off now. It's fair enough I'm now on the under weight border line.

Quite glad looking at the new prices

He's got offers from Leeds and Everton apparently

Lyon finished higher in the league so get priority.

They are lucky to even be in the Conf league, one of their owners also owns a stake in Brondby who are in the Conf League and they finished higher in the league

Evertons first season in a new stadium. They’ve a creaking squad and having to buy 19-21 year olds to fill gaps - possibly still buying on the cheap with 1.75 eyes on PSR. Quite frankly, I’m counting the days till I see Everton drop. Hoping they have a torrid, turgid season and they get their comeu...

The one I'm throwing out was made by Buoyant but it has lasted a lot, lot longer than I imagine it was expected to. I've had no complaints about it, just at the end of its life now.

If you want buoyant, try the below list:

Sofology
Furniture village
Loom loft
Shackeltons
Pendle village

£27m?!?

Really not sure. I haven't had any appetite for 6 months now so can't remember the hunger urge

I’ll be honest, I don’t really want to see Saudi sides doing well. The league absolutely stinks.

So, feeling sick because you don't eat needs ameliorating by taking more drugs to make sure you don't eat. It's a strange world.

What? I didn't feel sick because I didn't eat?

I felt sick because I ate decent and drank. Now I'm eating less I don't feel sick when I drink

What does it do regarding alcohol consumption?

On the lower doses it made me feel a bit sick. Prob cos I still ate a decent amount

Higher dose no issues, although 5 is prob my limit now

I think the poster meant after you finish taking it. If you don't break the lifestyle habits that led to the weight gain in the first place, then you'll end up putting the weight back on. Yeah but I've been on it nearly a year now and it has broken my lifestyle habits. I don't snack at all now. At ...

And even if you avoid that outcome which is probably most people, you can't take it forever and will put the weight back on unless lifestyle and diet are changed.

Better to lose weight slowly, cut down on your pork life and get some exercise!

It does change your lifestyle and diet?

Are you familiar with the "5th dose" that you can extract with a normal syringe? Means you can make your pen last an extra week, or take your next dose before seven days, when the effects are wearing off.

I did it once but my appetite returned. So I'm not sure it's actually a 5th dose

I’ve looked at this recently as my sister uses it. I’ve been going to a SlimmingWorld group for nearly 6 years but I’ve crept up a bit this year. Lots of factors cause it to be honest. Does Mounjaro affect your energy levels due to the lack of calories you’re consuming? I cycle a lot and obviously ...

That car is only second fastest when Verstappen drives it. Apparently it's an absolute pig to drive, it's not that it really suits Verstappen, it's that he's been able to make it go fast.

I think I read somewhere that the new Everton stadium has the same number of non-hospitality tickets as Goodison despite it being considerably larger.

That's not true. Not even close. There's about 10k more normal seats

If it is Moyes who takes over, lets hope their whiny fan base enjoy his free flowing football. They would find football a lot easier if they realised in isn't the mid 80s anymore and they are irrelevant when it comes to winning things. I know this seems really hard for ultra pro Dyche people to und...

The bigger picture is that McNeil is injured, the squad is not the best, and he is on an atypical bad run - it’s more likely that they’d return to a norm soon. No evidence of that this time. Not a single player has come out on social media have they this time? The players wanted him out and by the ...

Everton. So many managerial changes and no upturn. The new owners must aspire to being a top six club. Sadly for them reality will blunt the aspiration. I wonder who they will appoint now?

Moyes until the summer then prob someone like Thomas frank or the Bournemouth manager in the summer

All down to Dyche and his Jurassic park tactics

Best manager since Moyes? What?

Koeman
Silva
Ancelotti

Just a reminder of the managers they've had since Moyes.

People seem to forget that they sold Onana in the summer. How do they expect to improve selling their best players and not being able to replace them. The expectations are ludicrous. I'm pretty sure the signings they've made since Dyche has been there have basically just been players they could get...

They've sold a lot of good players and not spent anything in terms of a net spend. Beto was a desperate January buy because of injury to Dom Calvin Lewin last season.

That’s been very hard to do with the points deductions no money and the injuries Everton fans don’t appreciate what he has done!!

He did. But he's still made Murphy, longstaff and willock look like too PL players.

Dyche doesn't have it in him. He's a firefighter, he'll make a side solid at the back and build from there, actually that's it.

Everton have flirted with relegation for a few years now. I'm not sure they'll get the big name manager their fans think they're entitled to.

Of course they will. A big club and money attracts.

Villa were the same and got emery. You are massively downplaying the size of Everton.

On dyche. He acts like he's doing Everton a favour all the time.

You don't think Thomas frank... A manager who manages a team that plays in a 17k stadium that only has one ambition. To stay in the PL wouldn't want to manage a team that plays in a 53k stadium and wants to win things? I think you are deluding yourself a little. Probably due to the bad blood between...

Thomas Frank would be off his head to take the Everton job he had a better one already.

Brentford have a ceiling. Everton don't really.

Thomas frank would walk over broken glass to manage Everton. As would loads of managers.
