SO that's Stones gone - glad it's over with. The Lukaku stuff is going to keep rumbling on.

Ed, have Chelsea or anyone else even tabled a bid for him yet? You said the other day their top brass had sanctioned one - was contact ever made?

{Ed002's Note - I did not say anything about "top brass". What I said was that the two people at the club who were particularly offended have agreed to sanction an offer although one still remains concerned. Whilst not first choice for Chelsea and whilst they will not pay the price being asked, the player wants to return and Everton know that. So it is possible. Napoli remains a possibility but not at the asking price. In the interim, Chelsea are keen to ensure that they have sufficient cover are now (today) talking with a representative of another striker. I very much doubt they will be interested in being screwed around.}

Sorry just assumed if they were a big enough deal to have to give the OK for a bid it'd be high ranking people.

Cheers for the info though Ed. WHo they talking to?

{Ed002's Note - It is unimportant Dave - this is the Everton page.}
