Hi all, the following is a leaked document from Goodison!!


To Blue Bill from agent Brenda

Progress report, week 5

I'm glad to report that all is well or rather not so well in the red camp. I seem to have completed our 5 year plan in 5 weeks, both you and I never thought I could have them in the bottom 3 so quickly.

These red fans are easy to appease I just have to tell them I'm playing good football and they lap it up!! The fools would rather think they play well and lose than not and win, however I still can't seem to understand them as none of them speak English, I was stopped by one on Sunday morning who asked for directions to Analfield!

There have been some rumblings for my head but as soon as I pretend I'm living in the 1980s they just go into a dream land. I have most supporters eating out of my hand at the moment, however I'm running out of things to blame for the bad results, so far Ive blamed the ref, the woodwork, the pitch, the ref again, Alex ferguson, god, FSG, goal line technology, the assistant ref, bad luck and Jon Joe Shelvey! So any help you could provide there would be welcome.

Team update for this week: good news, with the injuries mounting up I can put faze 2 into operation and put Caragher back in the side, they idolize him over here and can't see how awful he is now!!

I've also told goofy that if he keeps rolling around the ground that he'll eventually get a penalty! The person doesn't realize I meant a 3 match ban.

Unfortunately Shelvey got sent off so I might have to play someone decent, but then again I'll be starting Borini again, you should see him in training he couldn't hit a barn door with a beach ball!

Well nearly done now, I don't know how long il remain in place over here, but they still haven't copped on to the fact I sold all our strikers and never bothered phoning Fulham for Dempsey.

agent Brenda {Ed025's Note - i enjoyed that..

I've read some rubbish on here, but this is something else. Why you are so obsessed with them, when we are doing so well, god only knows.

Mike

It's called a banter site! Part of the enjoyment of winning is laughing at those who don't, and by god we've earned our right to laugh at others, so lighten up.

Agent Brenda, why not go with the rafa approach and place blame for poor performance on the owners, he used to do it all the time, FACT

Just seems like such a waste of time and effort to me. Yes, they haven't got off to a good start but we haven't won anything for 17 years, so it's a bit silly to be laughing at them for a poor 5 games. Just hope this is the season we finally win something.

Mike

Hey Mike one word that may help you.

PROZAC

Look mike you whopper its called banter page hey ed could you open new page called serious page for like mike {Ed013's Note - I will ask for a serious Mike page!}

Mike......lets see if you can post a positive comment just 1 mate shock us all . Stef the blue

Ed just start a new page called Whopper page and Mike and Gandolph can talk bollox to each other all day long

Degsy {Ed025's Note - i know degs...if the shoe was on the other foot..the R/S would be giving is hell..

Love it, as an author of rubbish / banter posts it's nice too see a fellow blue joining in on the humour to be had.
I find it refreshing to read something light hearted when not much is going on banter wise.

Keep up the good work.

There's just no pleasing some Blues, complain about every little nook and cranny. Get a grip.

Steve EFC {Ed025's Note - i agree steve..

Hey Eds, what happened to the poster who came on a few weeks ago asking for advice for their upcoming interview with Everton In The Community?
They said they'd come back on and let us know how it went but I can't remember them coming back on at all.

Moody Blue {Ed025's Note - as far as i know moody, there has been no update yet mate..

I posted Wednesday but it must not of been posted... It went well it was just an informal, just telling me what I will be doing etc... Looks good... Got an introduction a week saturday... {Ed025's Note - nice one mate..

Cool, sounds promising so far dude, fingers crossed for you. Are they making you run the Santa Dash as part of the process?

Sorry, forgot to sign that last post where I tried to plug the Santa Dash (Sunday 2nd December only 5 km a great laugh for a great charity)
Moody Blue {Ed025's Note - i knew it was you moody..

Thanks ed and moody, if I get the choice to do it I will, we choose what we get involved in... I hope I get to do it! Haha! Thanks guys...

I thought you would Ed but by signing the first post I wouldn't have had the opportunity to plug the Santa Dash twice (Sunday 2nd December, a quick hangover curing dash round the city, blue Santa suits available from Everton In The Community, great charity, great local causes)

Be careful Chanel 5 are showing a programme about a circus and Brendan the clown. Try and not laugh too much ;-)

Who cares

next 3 pl games should be 9 points take 7 tho

What is the best place to be if you want to qualify champs league ? to sit at the top in first place catching everyone's eye and making people bust a gut when they play you? - or just sneak under the radar in places 3 to 6 until the last 10 games of the season? then ramp it up?

Finish 1st, 2nd, 3rd or even 4th gives you the greatest chance, cant really think of any other ways I'll let ya know if i think of any though :)

Just pointing out our run of PL fixtures:
Southampton, Wigan, QPR, Liverpool, Fulham, Sunderland, Reading & Norwich. Then we have a tough month. But is anyone else thinking we could win all of those? Big ask, I'm sure we will drop points but the next few months could get even better if we just keep going. COYB!

Vincent

I would say the toughest game there will be the Fulham away match. Apart from that no reason why we cant win the rest of them as they are all fairly average.

Alastair

Not the worst run of the games like.

It's always hard to predict because this league is crazy but out of them I would expect around 15-18 points from 24 available.

Taking us into mid November with 34 points which would usually put you around 4th/3rd.

Bit much to expect but it's possible. COYB

Yeah - but look what happened after we got excited about our first two wins - manu and villa - bump back down with loss vs WBA cos Moyes went for the win (understandably) and then said later he should have settled for the draw

Don't think he said he'd settle for the draw, more like I tried to be more attacking!
There's a difference.

Jelly back 4 tomoz,...get in there

Are we still on for vadis ofoe in january. If we can keep this run going it would be a nice boost to have a new face in january. Also if we are in for him have it in place so that when the window opens get him in early. {Ed025's Note - i expect him to join us in january..

January is shaping up to be an important month if we continue in this vein. Without doubt need a central midfielder, if that is that VOO or not, who knows, but we definitely need one.

And hopefully with this start, Donovan is encouraged to join the team again and give us an even bigger boost, always seemed to join us when we were down and out and turned this place around, would love to see him join when the tema is already up and running, imagine the option we would have. The depth and more importantly the quality we would had at that position, I mean any combo of Fellaini, Pienaar, Mirallas, Naismith and Donovan would be immense.

did anyone watch Man City game - I saw bits of it and saw/heard rodwell was playing - how did he look? {Ed025's Note - he came on as sub, but did not really affect the game..

Hate to say it, as I thought Rodwell was an outstanding young man and a true Evertonian, but selling him has been truly amazing business for this club.

24 Sep 2012 10:02:18
why dont we try and get frimpong on loan hes fit again

Get a grip!?!

Just another drenthe in my eyes, and he doesnt look very well disciplined which would let the whole team down if he gets sent of or something like that {Ed025's Note - i agree mate..
