Everton Athletic, Martinez showing a totally blinkered approach to signing players.

Gonna take the dog up to Barrack road and throw the ball around a bit, hopefully he will catch Joe's eye. The plan is to liken him to Obertan, pacey but no end product or concentration. http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad223/Philly1983/f15fbcaf.jpg

AVB turning up to work in a Ferrari

Exactly how i'm expecting it to go, on saturday i pointed to Ruiz and told my mate to remember him come deadline day. History repeating itself.

Yep, most dangerous we have looked for a long time.

Just got back, thought we played ok if unadventurous in the first half with Shola on the system seemed a very rigid style of play. Second half we did better but the subs made the real difference, the attack looked much more dynamic and fluid then. I was surprised when Anita went off as i thought he was having a good game, but Cabaye worked hard and played some good balls, Remy was the real surprise for me i didn't realise how tall he was and thought he did well both in the air and on the ground, he really turned the game for me along with Gouffran. Marv was disappointing for me, he looked lazy IMO. Overall the second half should give us hope although we still need a striker, someone powerful who can compete in the air. Corners improved for me too.

Judging by the comments on here I think you're in the minority. Didn't hunk he was poor but I thought he looked tired until the subs were made, then he got a second wind.

It's not, the pull out in the Journal done a piece on it as its the most expensive house in the North East for sale. It was designed and built and it's never sold IIRC Edit: the article. http://www.thejournal.co.uk/news/north-east-news/north-easts-most-expensive-new-4411555

Either way we will never really know the truth, history shows that the club are happy to lie so I would lean towards that version of events but baring in mind that unlike us there's nothing to say he has any emotional allegiance to the club then part of me can believe the other too. The bigger picture is of course that once again we are going to be open to a shit slinging contest in the national press.

I can sypothise with either for different reasons.

Or the f**k off Cabaye version

You seem to be suggesting he might have been sacked had we gone out tonight. There's probably more chance of that now, there's no money in the cups.i I hope you are right! Total fraud of a bloke and dare I say it, football manager Happy, happy, happy you fucking retard. Just turn the channel over you two bit 90's sports sock.

This picture nicely sums up our bus and the crowd tonight. http://i938.photobucket.com/albums/ad223/Philly1983/24D10392-FADF-4C82-9082-A8C694ADCF60-7033-00000BD2F9AAFDDF_zps5cc985eb.jpg

Are you intolerant, like? glutton

First pint in town ahead of the bus trip with the Red Stripe, gluten for punishment! Come on the lads

I can understand why due to the size of the transfer fee but i'm sick of hearing about big lugs Bale and Spuds now.

I was close to cancelling it this year the only reason I didn't is for the social side of it. Having the football as a reason to go out and meet the lads is the only reason why I have it now. I know I could still go out and meet them even if I give it up but it would be too easy for my life to take over, her in doors, work, visiting family that lives away it would be easy excuses to not go out.

I dont know whats more impressive £35m for Carroll or £500k for Pattison.

Not the brightest then. f***ing hell, what do you drive? Concorde? They were signing that after the first goal from what I could hear on TV. It's a sign I the times I think, 90% of fans from any team are more interested in slagging each other off then yet are signing about the football. Live in Manchester. It was more the boozed up teenagers who were doing it and they really are as thick as fuck. Standard fare for away games now.

Jesus Christ Pardew.

Lets be honest, were playing a team that are one if the favourites to win the league, there's only two or three teams that have a chance of beating them this year and most teams that play them at home are likely to suffer the same fate as us. Silly errors and idiocy aside, were playing Man City not Hull.

I have no understanding of how a player and/or a manager can decide that he can't play a game of fucking football because another team has made a bid for him.....fucking hell man, what an example of how out of touch football is.

I can see him going for 15-18m most likely the day before the window closes. I don't know what his true value is but i'd hope for more then 10m for him, i suppose a player is only worth what someone is wiling to pay though....bring on Liverpool.
