Colos Short and Curlies

down in south wales where every kid seems to be in Liverpool or Man U shirts my 5 year old got his full u6 team shouting ‘Newcastle, Newcastle’. Warms the cockles of the heart that kind of thing

I always associate him with a blue top

Agree with this, and for this season I don't think there is any real difference to finishing second or third in the group. Finish second and get to experience at least 2 knockout games Finish third get a chance to go deeper into a tough European tournament. all good for getting some real top leave experience in the lads legs and Howe's psyche

How awkward does Cole look unscrewing the balls?

rather have them beat everyone in our group and finish second then get them first knockout round

Tempted to stick a fiver on Bruce being in charge there by Christmas. they can’t afford to sack Dyche and pay for an in work manager to leave their job. Rice will be paid in Sayers sausage rolls

Couple of weeks = one game does it not?

simply ‘this means more’

Im seeing a lot of the Juve shirts on holiday and unpopular opinion alert…… it’s quite grown on me (not that I’d want it for us, but maybe that style as a one off)

Murphy to score and bring out the rocking baby celebration. Klopp to act like a big baby

id throw Shearer into the mix tbf

unless they see Barnes being the 1st choice left winger and Gordon being an option across the front 3 (and maybe even in midfield in an emergency). or Howe could be planning a change to formation and bringing in players who can fit into the current and any future plan.

it’s also more fun this way. alternative universe we do a Chelsea and spend a billion quid over a year then win the quadruple this season. It would never be as much fun again due to (a) expectations and (b) what else is there to do? were going to build and compete in every game and every season now, getting better all the time. There’s at least 3-5 years of this before we become as boring as City (being a machine not necessarily the style of play)

I was thinking that if our midfield trio turn it on at the weekend then the poor guys pl career could be over before it starts. basically I want the Neil Cox treatment x3

we’ve just bought a very highly rated young left back who will displace Burn. We haven’t played a single minute since he signed so a little harsh to include left back as a missed position

What would happen to the players should Everton fold mid season? an administrator would need to sell off as many as possible but of course would be restricted by a transfer window. if they just cease to be or cannot fulfil games would the players need to wait until the next transfer window before going on a free? isn’t the FFP ruling due around October? Fine or points deduction could see them off

Twitter. Full of tweets made by twats

I had Gav 1 on the away version of that top. anyone with a good memory will recall that the Adidas v had a bit of a tail and looked a bit like a short stalked y. Not my finest moment shirt wise

Unless we get an injury or their is a stupendous opportunity out there I don't actually want any January activity now. There's been a shit load of turnover in the last 18 months and I'd like to see it given a year to settle down and then move to a 2-3 signings per summer and 1 each January

or it’s another game to get minutes in the legs.

That's a niche injury coming his way

Was he the keeper or winger?

Mojos, little pieces of sickly heaven

Costco do an amazing sticky toffee pudding.

Desperate Dan bar?
