Doctor Zaius

To be fair Jagielka and Lescott have been phenomenal for Everton in recent seasons, especially last year. When you lose two centre backs that have played so well is always going to knock you back and thats why I think they dont look as difficult to break down as they have in the past. It also dosent help when you play 4-5-1 and your relying on a solid shape and back line to lose two quality players. The goals seemed to have dried up from a few players too, Fellaini, Jo and Cahill dont seem to be popping up with goals as much and the injurys to the likes of Yakubu and Arteta taking their tole. I still reckon Everton will finish in the top 8 though, Moyes is a good manager and he'll turn it around so I hope he dosent walk, Their first XI free of injuries is definately one that should be in the top 6.

Tbh I'm just pleased we didnt draw the mackems away. I dont know if i could stomach a derby defeat after the year we've had. Mind having said that their away form is shit so it wouldnt be set in stone.

Patrick Nzuzi comes across as a fairly intelligent lad in that blog.

Chester against Eastbourne borough in the FA cup abandoned after a pitch invaision by Chester fans in the 75th Minute. They were winning 3-2 aswell!

We're playing a poor standard of football like. Far too many long balls whacked up to the strikers like.

He was on SSN the other day with a full grown beard. Looked like he'd just came out of a mental hospital. He fell out with more than Bellamy here too, Laurent Robert is obvious and I'm sure Jenas, Dyer and Bernard left on bad terms. Theirs 5 from one club. Seems like his experience here got to him like, everytime I've see him asked about a new job he's categorically denied it. Useless fuck that he is.

Here's a question for you relics, Did you prefer how football was in the 80's to now? Would you rather go back to unlimited away followings, standing on the terraces, shit grounds etc. rather than a money, top 4 dominated Premier league, all seater stadia, lack of atmosphere etc

We've sold out for every away league game this season so surely we'll be up there

John Mccririck on soccer AM this morning Edit: He's just mentioned watching porn :facepalm:

Aye I agree. I didnt think his team did too badly. I certainly think we performed better under JFK than we did under Shearer. But after every match he would come out and talk utter utter shite. The man had verbal diarrhea. If we had a goal that was blatently offside he'd come out and argue the toss. If we were legitimatly beaten he'd come out and blame the ref. It got to the point where it was just unbearable. Would he have kept us up? No I dont think so. Will we continue tooi see him in the press throwing his name into the hat for every job and talking utter bollocks at any given chance? Probably.

72min - Pancrate shuffles inside his man on the right after swapping passes with Leadbitter and disptaches a crisp ball into the feet of Adjei in space on the left. The Swede works the ball on to his right peg and is unlucky not to net as a measured curler lands on the roof of Cook's goal. Jesus christ he can Shuffle too! Lord only knows how this guy hasnt been signed by anyone yet!

I've said this for a while but I fully expect him to go in January, but if it's to the mackems, it would be one MASSIVE kick in the teeth like. I Find it's strange how he hasn't been linked with Liverpool yet; he's Spanish, they've got Insua as first choice left back and although he's young he hasnt impressed me and Dossena for cover who's absolute garbage. I think Jose is good enough to play top 4 standard as it is and he's still relitively young.

I hope clarky goes far. Watched his Huddersfield side against I think it was Wycombe the other day and they looked fantastic. Certainly got them playing. Would love him to take them up.

You can add Phil Neville to that list too I seem to remember Butt having an absolutely storming game against Argentina in 2002, absolutely ran the show. A world away from the Nicky butt we dread to being on the teamsheet everyweek.

Can't think of many other products of our youth team that have won 2 Premier League titles and played in the Champions league......and we keep Andy O'Brian & Nikos Dabizas?! The same Andy O'Brien and Dabizas that was at the hear of our defence in he Champions league and when we finished 3rd and 4th? I often hear the likes of O'Brien and Dabizas being called s**** etc but for me they wernt s****, The pair of them along with Hughes might not have set the world alight but they were certainly better than alot of the dross we've had at the back. O'Brien was appauling...a passenger for his whole NUFC career. I only know he played because it says so on wikipedia Cant agree with that like. He was solid with Woodgate during our peak at Robsons era. He did turn shite tbf when Souness took charge but to say he was a passenger for his whole career is a little harsh. As for Dabizas, he'll alway remain special for that winner against the mackems!

I'd be very suprised if Steve Harper dosent go on to some coaching capacity. I could imagine Clarence Seedorf stepping into management aswell as somebody has already mentioned.

Suppose it's another body in a threadbare squad. I can see injurys and departed players hitting us big time after january like. Surely cant be worse than Grandad Geremi or Nicky Butt out wide. I wouldnt object to him been given a 1 year deal though having said that I had no idea who he was untill this morning.

Wish sky would show Italian football rather than Spanish football! Enjoy Sierie A much more than La Liga.

The banner is cringweworthy and stupid. Whatever it meant the wording is stupid. You cant just accuse him of being a "a rapist". IU appreciate the intentions of the banner being about him "raping the club" but if that was the case then they should have worded the banner differently, maybe about him raping the club. Beielve me I'm all for banners displaying of displeasure, but that banner is stupid.

Aye they're not doing badly and were unlucky to get beat yesterday

Those idiotic fans who text in on the football league show. Edit: Having to watch Mark fucking Clemmit on the FL show.

Hate that when its sang home and away. So arrogant and cringeworthy.

Maybe they could rip down the bit where it says 'Newcastle United' and put it up there. Wouldnt suprise me tbh. Though they'll probably rip out seats. There's no need for one, absolutely none at all. Yet another thing to get angry about.

Where the fuck are you going to fit a Jumbo screen at SJP ffs?
