Lovers of modern football tend to judge teams on their latest performance. Sky Sports News, Talksport and social media can create over zealous excitement and a distorted perception. Never more so than in the current Premier League season, where a tight league table and widespread inconsistencies have ensured perceptions change from one week to the […]
Is it just me, or does the national media have a serious agenda against a successful Everton Football Club? Over the last few weeks I’ve been watching football shows, reading the rags and browsing through social media and I’m wound up a treat. It’s so bad; I reckon B.T sport might actually have a meltdown […]
Everton have had a good start to the season and praise should be showered upon the players, coaches and manager. Deservedly so. However, praise the board of directors and the chairman? This is where the good feeling ends and the arguments begin. If the Blue Union supposedly only marches when we’re losing, then Bill Kenwrights keyboard apologists (both […]
The more we learn about our history the better prepared we are for the future, a saying we should all take not of. For example, on Wednesday evening I went out without a coat on. In a bid to avoid Rhino sack, I didn’t make the same mistake on Thursday as I wrapped up well. […]
Coutinho Goal Suarez Free Kick Unlike many of the recent Merseyside derbies, last week’s six goal thriller was a fantastic game. Two very attacking sides and two very bold managers who were hell bent on winning the football match. Good defending was sacrificed for all out attack. I was in a bad way in the […]

I love the Derby banter. Scousers are the funniest breed on the planet and during the week leading up to the game, the tension and nerves don’t half get the laughter flowing. You have to be careful though because you can’t win them all. There will come a time when you take it too far […]
I read John Aldridge’s article in the paper today and although it pains me to agree with him, I’m also of the opinion that Jose Enrique must be a starter for the foreseeable future. The reason it pains me to agree with John Aldridge is that I’m not Enrique’s biggest fan. However, I would rate […]
10pm everyone was angry as Everton appeared to have embarrassed themselves by seeking a work permit for a player they had not agreed terms with nor a fee with his club. Dave Whelan had exposed the club to ridicule by revealing that they wanted to spread the payments for James McCarthy over four years and Marouane […]
In stark contrast to summers gone by, this has been an eventful one for Everton Football Club. Let’s look back at this by breaking it down into simple parts. Allow me to review everything and everyone that made this summer eventful. David Moyes: In David Moyes’ 11 year tenure as Everton boss, I constantly backed […]
