Just read on Ceefax that Donovan has stated he is 'really comfortable at Everton'. Hope it's a big hint for DM to try and sign him permanently at some point.

Sheedy's left boot {Ed025's Note - that would be great..

I think we'd all love to see Landon at Goodison permanently Sheedy. He comes across as a true professional and an all round nice fella. It's amazing how he lifts the team and the crowd in the brief times he's been with us... Sign him up and give him the captaincy I say! One problem is his wages... the other... Would he want to move for good? It's a bit chilly on Merseyside despite the warmth of the fans. Landon Hope and Glory..... In that order!

Wizard of Osman

Can't see him swapping LA for Liverpool, would love it to happen but stranger things have happened like 35 million for a four million pound player

Would love Donovan to sign on a permanent basis but can't see it happening, game against City summed him up, when the ball came off Phil Neville's arm in the box and City claimed a pen he took the ball in our box, ran the length of the pitch tried a one two with Straqualersui near there 18 yard box but Straqualersui pass never came off, City broke with Kolorov and Donovan who was now in City's box chased Kolorov all the way back to the edge off our box and made a great slide tackle.
Class, skill, pace and hard work... he has the lot
Paul EFC {Ed025's Note - no doubt about it paul, the guy is quality!, but i cant see him staying....his family life over in the states is too big of a pull, add to that the climate, and status he enjoys in the mls, makes me feel we will miss out..boo hoo..

Who did he play for when in the premier league and bet they are sorry now

Yep you missed the orange boxes for the ten foot wall (well it seemed like ten feet at the time), getting squished against a barrier when we scored, losing a shoe and trying to find it. The good old days :) {Ed001's Note - old people have such odd recollections of how good standing was. You got crushed next to some smelly fat guy, urine was everywhere, you couldn't get a drink or something to eat. Yes the atmosphere was great, but that was because you were able to move next to all your mates. They just need to allow people to sit together with their mates, instead of having to sit where the ticket tells them to.}

I used to stand in Gwladys Street near to the church. There was never any urine where we were, in fact the first time I experienced that was at Anfield, standing on the Kop during a derby match!.You could get a drink and pie or sausage roll before the game. It was a great atmosphere but it could be scary when the ground was jammed.

Yer mama i dig da lower bullin just dont light up a reefer iz will go up in smoke da place a death trap is remember bradford with great sorrow and sadness god bless those pepole,maybe iz thinks dats wat the kenwright waz on about wen e sayz no safty certificate for da ground in 5 years well iz tink thtats past dat deadline an were still up and runnin......just.M.C.rizzla

When did Ali G start supporting the Mighty Blues? I thought he was a Staines homey, shouldn't he be a Gooner or something?

I remember going to a game on New Years Day in the late 80's, just before the seats were put in, I was on the Gwladys Street and a terrible cold as well as a banging hangover.
It was so packed with the usual festive family fans I was struggling to raise my arms any higher than my waist when I suddenly had a coughing fit.
Before I could lift my hands to cover my mouth this massive glob of germ ridden phlegm came flying out of my mouth, flew over the heads of 3 or 4 of the blokes in front of me and landed on some big grocks head.
I can still remember the anger on his face as he felt the back of his head and then turned round furious, shouting and swearing demanding to know who had gobbed on him as I desperatley tried to avoid eye contact.
Heaven help me if he'd sussed it was me, it used to take an age for the police or stewards to get in to the crowd in those days.

Sheedy's left boot.
