Fuck it, announce the deal, spend the money and argue about it later. After the way the PL caved in October it's the last thing they want. Tugging the forelock and asking if we have permission to sign new deals? Fuck that and fuck them.

Season ticket holders can buy from tomorrow morning. General sale from Monday 10am. Confirmed as 8th Jan, 3pm kick off

Be fucking ugly this cunt. Absolutely no doubt about it. Only hope is Klopp knows it'll be a cakewalk and rests about 7. That should mean we only leave with a 4-0 drubbing as opposed to dusting off the PL record books

Think the refs might notice we're playing with 12 unfortunately

Once you lose the away fans the writing is usually on the wall for any manager. Don't think he's had a fair crack of the whip with a sizeable portion of Everton fans, they were never going to give him a chance. He's come in and had barely a penny to spend and inherited a very mixed bag of a squad, one that he's had no say in, he's dealing with the previous manager's offcasts and mistakes. It was never going to work out.

Need to go big on 5 or 6 players in Jan or we're fucked. Thought we have a chance of a point today but got blown out if the water. Squad is horrendous, it's not Howe's fault but it is his problem and he solves it by removing half of the team and replacing it. He then needs to cross his fingers they all stay fit and we limp to about 34 points. It's a tall order.

The technology that VAR has produced is fantastic. Having the ability to place a camera 70 yards from a line and decide if the whole of a ball is over a line by a few mm is amazing. The ability to stop a moving image and draw parallel lines to decide offsides (I hate this actually but the technology itself) is superb, having multiple angles on incidents and looking at things frame by frame is also mint. It's the human part that is the weak link. Easily influenced officials have been put in charge of applying the technology and they're still making the bent, bullshit decisions they've been making for years, it's not corrected that, it's still unfair and I'm still seeing the top teams get the benefit of any doubt each week, this week in particular. Applied honestly it would benefit the sport massively but I'm not seeing that.

It's what used to be the player's lounge, Howe thought a warm up area was more useful so he changed the room immediately. I hope it's not quite finished yet however It's very 'sparse'.

Zaha is such a fucking prick. Does this every game.

'Big fucking hammer' seemed to be the tool of choice tbh

Guide was asked about the land behind the Gallowgate and knows the Ruben's are fully aware of the situation and on it.

Just started taking down the last sports direct sign on the Gallowgate Also mentioned there's no plans to change the font on the East stand btw

Nice warm welcome and a free calendar for the bairn's bedroom wall Little things.

Booked a tour for myself and the boy tomorrow, part of his Xmas presents . I'll have a nose around and take a few pics

Brentford win and btts is boosted to 5/1 on PP. I'll probably go for that, good price and as likely as anything else imo.

I was just trying to think of a valid reason to protest and that was the only scenario I could possibly see actually happening. But again, just leave plenty of time and even that situation is easily avoided

I think the main gripe is the potential for delays. One person being asked to show their QR code is neither here nor there, the 150 people in the queue trying to show theirs so you can get through the turnstile at 2.50 would see a few kicking off. That's about the only drawback I can think of though. As an act in itself it's no hardship at all, it takes seconds.

When are these likely to go on sale? Any ideas?

I think they should do the honourable thing and award each team a point per fixture for the rest of December. 2 points if your team begins with an 'N'.

Christ almighty, I know they were caught on the hop a bit when they got the green light but they need to get their shit in a pile asap as that's a horrific tweet (if true obviously). They need someone who knows how the sport operates and can get things done, fucking about in the middle of December will absolutely come back and kick us square in the knackers if they don't get this right. The window is crucial to survival, they MUST see this, we're already staring down the barrel, this appointment (and the subsequent signings made by the chap this window) will go a long way towards deciding which division we're in next season. It's importance is critical and it's pretty fucking urgent too. Needs sorting pdq.

Remember when Ashley responded to criticism of the look of the stadium by just painting matt black paint over the dirt, grime and moss without even bothering to clean the breezeblocks first. What. A. Lad.

Burn them. Scatter anthrax over them then shoot the ashes to the fucking moon. They're the physical embodiment of Ashley and his approach to the club. Cheap, nasty, low quality, low profile, zero credibility and zero ambition. They're the last connection to the previous regime and the sooner they're gone the better. Ashley out Bruce out Charnley out Sports Direct out all in the last 8 weeks. It's fucking magical

Pick that cunt out. They've deserved it like, had 2 disallowed for a combined offside of about 13 mm.
