How come you never post my opinions on here, Is it because someone owns this website for every team and you are encouraged to post comments that everybody laughs at that are obviously not off fans who regularly attend games and are complete rubbish, because I know I have made many valid comments and you haven't post any, and I follow this site everyday so know how many comments are made and it's not enough to blank me {Ed025's Note - i really dont know what you are on about..

Is this a joke message maybe you never get a message posted because you post a load of crap the people who post on here come across to me as people who have followed the blue for a lifetime and love the club just because they (and me) like to instill a little humor in our postings deosnt make them less valid and as for not being a true fan because they dont attend games that just pisses me off I admit i only get to a couple home games a season because I work on Saturdays and live in Yorkshire but my love for the blues is not measured but how many times ive seen them at goodison. so if your post here is anything to go by then ED is correct not to sully our page with your drivel, oh and scroll down a bit further you`ll see the bit where I sign my post unlike you

ToffeeAL

Sorry about the rant ed but that got me a bit flustered
ToffeeAL {Ed025's Note - its ok al..

Hi ToffeeAl
it's good to see more yorkshire people following the mighty blues,
i only get to about 5-10 games a year due to work, but it's the work that pays me to go when i can so thats a catch 22 for me' but don't get me wrong i still get to watch all games over the net if i'm working
Where abouts you from in the gods land, am from Shakey Wakey :)

y0rksh1re_blue

Im from Leeds! Just a shame that there are just a load of deluded Leeds fans over here who think Leeds are a bigger club than Everton!
Joe EFC

Im in Rotherham mate

ToffeeAL

Halifax here, me and the misses go to cup games mainly as I work alot of Saturdays

J0hn80y

Badger

Hey Yorkies, is Plus Net any good lol, only joking

Thats a great thing about us blues, no matter where you are from, we are all as one

Roll on the start of the season

Degsybluenose

It just goes to show that we have real fans that follow our beloved culb no matter where we live, not like the RS who all live in Norway...lol deluded RS

y0rksh1re blue

Im from doncaster and followed the blues for a good 20 years,hope moyes gets some money to spend this summer i belive if we can keep the lads together with the signing of 3 or 4 players top 4 here we come,for me a rb a rw lw st and were away come on everton beat the man u and rooney boys

I was born and raised in North London, my dad is a scouser and i was brought up a blue. Always went to 2 - 4 home games a year growing up, coming from London. Then i went to uni in Edinburgh, did the round trip every other week for 2 years. Finished Uni and worked in Melbourne Australia for 3-4 years, watched every game on tv at around 12-3am on sunday mornings! Then i met my wife who is Swedish and now i live in Stockholm, again get to watch every game on tv live on saturday/sunday but still try and get over to Goodison 2 or 3 times a season. Now i have proabaly in total been to far less games than many on here and i have never lived in Liverpool but my love for the blues is genetic its in my dna and my little boy who is only 2 so only ever lived in Sweden will be the same.

Svenny {Ed025's Note - and very welcome you are svenny..

I'm in cambridge, only mostly arsenal, Chelsea and glory supporters here.

Blue kaz

You lot should try living in Runcorn - the town that time forgot. Actually there are loads of Blues here as you would expect, alongside RS and Man Utd in bucketloads, with about half a dozen Man City fans now confident enough to show their colours - sadly that figure is likely to double over the next few years.
Bluewal.

I'm from preston, a fair few blues round here, but also surrounded by a fair few kopites and mancs as well.

Bez the blue

Just continuing the Yorkshire trend, Northallerton (40 mins north of Leeds)

King Chong

I'm from Warrington, it's full of Utd , city, kopite and everton fans. With about 50% kopites, 30% Utd, 15% city and 5% everton, or so it seems from my school days and now at work...

I can honestly confirm that I live in the bum hole of the Northwest, the boil on the backside of humanity - Skem

Degsybluenose {Ed025's Note - i take it that you dont work for the skemersdale tourist board then degsy..

No Ed

The only thing that keeps me here is a very famous crisp company

Degsybluenose

St. Helens myself fellas. Not massive amounts of Blues but we do have Johny Wellies the tramp. Got his own website and everything! Well worth a look!

Wizard of Osman

Is it true that all persons that live in Runcorn have six toes,or is that just a myth,.............tristen of the bishops avenue London {Ed025's Note - it is true....there is also a rumour, that there was someone from there without a tattoo...and a 15 yr old girl that was not pregnant...but as i say..rumours..

Degzy that explains why you get confused a lot,....going round all them roundabouts,...skems full of them ,...........tristen {Ed025's Note - are you from skem tris?

I'm from Rainy Swansea. The place is full of RS fans, makes me sick. Couple of Toffees down here though. I remember being in a pub filled with RS Watching the Derby when Dunc got his Debut goal and we went on to win 2-0 within 20 seconds of the second goal going in the place was empty but for me and another toffee proudly singing by our selves.


I do manage to get to Goodison. When I can. I will say that the toffees down here love the club like the rest of you and can't wait for next season

COYB

Toffee ace

Hey tris, I may go round a lot of roundabouts but am straight as they come kidder

Degsybluenose

No ed the very lovely Norris green village,we get are own body armour direct from the council,and I never go out in my hot pants coz I wouldn't make it home......I'd get stoned to death..........tristen {Ed025's Note - lovely area... my dog got bitten by a kid there..

Did you mean boned and not stoned Tris

Degsybluenose

Croxteth park (not croxteth) born and bred the boyzzz, happy to come from liverpool but welcome all blues globally. We are born not manufactured.

If rangers reform as a new company does that mean that the players contracts become invalid making them in effect "free agents"? Naismith on a free would do nicely {Ed025's Note - it would mate...but im not sure how it works to be honest..

Iv heard 2 different opinions from officials
1. the contracts are in someway linked to the SFA and they are granted ownership of any contracts. This is possibly a good thing as they will not want as much as rangers themselves would.
2. the contracts would be transferred over to the new club which would be started, in the same way that the administrators have confirmed that their previous cups could be- dont really understand how this could be done but not my field.

both of these sound a bit sketchy to me but thats what iv heard

I was under the impression that those liquidating Rangers are still calling in all payments due to them.

Taken from BBC website:
Under the Transfer of Undertakings (Protection of Employment) Regulations 2006, all employees have the legal right to transfer to the new employer on their existing terms and conditions of employment and with all their existing employment rights and liabilities intact.
It could prove problematic for the newco to maintain the level of wages currently being paid to players if the club's income is reduced. Similarly, employees are under no obligation to accept the terms of the transfer to the new company and can terminate their employment contracts.
Effectively, this means that when Rangers is liquidated, all current players would be free to seek new clubs and there would be no transfer fees due to the newco. However, there could be complications with player contracts under Fifa, Uefa and SFA regulations.
That suggests to me that any player that wants to leave is entitled to tear up his contract

ToffeeAL {Ed025's Note - good info al...cheers..

Looks like Gibbo, Heitinga and Jelavic are all in for an early return to the club. Really disappointing! But atleast none of the bigger clubs will be having their eyes on our players now, par jags and baines ofcourse, who haven't even played.

QatariBlue

I have to agree with you QB, I posted something similar in relation to Baines and Jags not starting against Sweden and so not being in the shop window and no risk of injury. The same applies here as far as I'm concerned; while I'm sure Johnny, Gibbo and Jelly would rather stay in the tournament it now means they're out of the gaze of other clubs and injury free, ready to unleash chaos on the premier league come August. Club before country for me, no contest.

Behind Blue Eyes {Ed025's Note - im with you there blue eyes..

I think if we are honest Jonny didnt do himself any favors with his 2 performances in the group games just glad his 2 bad games this season were for Holland not us

What do you guess think on affelay {Edo025's Note - good player..

18 Jun 2012 20:57:00
People keep posting teams on here with
Akinfeev in goal. Hes out of our price range and is captain of CSKA Moscow and probably on a high wage. We dont need a goalkeeper when we have got Timmy Howard

18 Jun 2012 20:11:05
Just seen mario mandzukic has told everton to hold talks when the euros are over or if they get knocked out... Moyes or jelavic must of had a chat because players don't say anything unless they know it's true... That pranjic looks good, nearly had him! Unfortunately he's going to china isn't he?...........

TC {Ed025's Note - apparently tc..

The one that got away.........

TC

Where u get that from TC, ignore the disagree mate, I hit the button by accident,

Degsybluenose

It Was on google news before, it was an interview with mandzukic and they asked him about being linked to everton and he said "wait until the euros have finished, I want to focus on playing my best for croatia" type mario mandzukic on google news and go last 24 hours........

TC

Hey TC, you must be some kind of detective or something lol, always find the hidden snippets mate

Degsybluenose

Heard he is going to juventus they can offer more money and CL
Cornol Sanders

I've heard that too but he has a friend here who he links up with brilliantly in mr. Jelavic, also I'm sure bilic would tell him to come to us (hopefully) and Degsy I'm tapping the side of my nose to that one.............

TC

18 Jun 2012 19:59:52
Ah Bilic is playing the Chelsea-esque 9-0-1 formation, that's why Jelavic is on the bench...

Fred

18 Jun 2012 19:44:26
just seen the fixtures and a nice easy one to start with lol. plus just seen moyes on the bbc at the croatia game. maybe keeping his eye on mandzukic

Andy

18 Jun 2012 19:25:06
Out:
Cahill 2m
Felliani 15m+Madrid Midfielder

In:
Mandivic 7m
Naismith free
Fenandez free
Kalou free
Racatik 5m

Wages a bit but if BK loves ushe should spare 3m a year for a decent side then we can push up prem table to compete with the best!!

Sell fellaini, our best player and cahill will get back in form, never sell them.

Gazzabluenose

You are only saying that cos you got Cahill on your shirt last year son, it's not as if YOU paid for it mate lol

Degsybluenose (Dad)

Oh yeah them famous players Racatik and Mandivic....

18 Jun 2012 17:52:36
Easy money tonight bluenoses

Jellyman 14/1 paddypower first goal

Degsybluenose

Mugs game Degs, although Im not a betting man I would love a few goals from Jelly, keeping up the habit of scoring

Toffee ace

Thought he pulled up last game?

Gods Doctor?

Easy cash there degz, worth a tenner do you reckon?

ToffeeTony

Maybe not degsy. jelly is on bench as croats are crammin mid gainst spain! means hes not gettin injured at mo though! ;)

timmyEFC

Gotta win this time Toffo, havent had a winner this month, defo due one, hope he isnt injured

Degsybluenose

Hes on the bench tonight {Ed025's Note - change it to last goal degsy..

18 Jun 2012 17:17:49
Clearly no one listens to moyes, he clearly states that he wants as do the other players to fulfill there ambitions at everton, he also said he has spoken to the chairman about how he needs to take the club forward and build on what we had last season! Read into it however you like but it doesn't sound like anyone's going! {Ed025's Note - that would be great..

18 Jun 2012 16:11:41
For the first time in a long time i'm genuinely worried that big names may be leaving Everton this Summer. I hope to God i eat my words and Felli, Baines and Moyes stay. If we can make a few smart signings hopefully we'll get back into Europe next season! COYB IMWT.

Wonder if any of you guys might be able to help me with the history of Mike Parry.Im researching a book on the Sun and it's gutter type reporting style.I remember he worked for them alongside Kelvin McKenzie,and is allegedly a big Everton fan.I also recall the Talksport years with his amazing ability to lie and fabricate.Some light fact checking has revealed more tall tales,university,travel etc,but i would be most grateful for any other data.Thanks,have a great season. pmb 9 {Ed025's Note - good luck with that mate...i hope you uncover the filth and depravity that this rag stands for..

Everton v Man Utd first game off season..

Blue Berrypie

My Prediction: 8-0 Everton, Jelly with 6 goals, Pienaar and Fellaini with the other 2 goals...

Ross Barkley is off to United according to sources close to him. Don't shoot the messenger, I am only passing on information from his cousin's mouth

I want to shoot the messenger Ed

Degsybluenose {Ed025's Note - get in the queue degsy..

18 Jun 2012 10:20:18
I don't really think we need a new CF and RM and all these players that are being thrown around we have enough depth in our youth to cover all those positions quite well, all we need to be set for this season is to secure a deal for Pienaar whether it be a purchase or a season long loan doesn't bother me. and i think we need a new right back, as good as Hibbo is in certain aspects of his game he lacks quite sufficiently elsewhere. Bring in Naughton at right back and he can rotate with Hibbo.

Ins:
Pienaar - 4m/Loan
Naughton 2-3m
Outs:
Cahill - 3-4m
Anichebe - 1-2m
Mucha - 500k-1m
Yobo - 1-2m

Team
GK: Howard
Def:Hibbo/Naughton, Jags, Heitinga, Baines

Mid:Barkley/Coleman, Gibson, Rodwell, Pienaar

Att:Fellaini
Att:Jelavic

And players on the bench such as Osman, Gueye, Vellios, Distin, Francisco Junior, Duffy etc.

I'd be happy with that this summer. anyone else agree?

We need a RM more than a RB, for RB we have Hibbo, Neville and Coleman (HE IS NOT A WINGER FFS!!). We have no natural winger in our squad, Coleman as I said is a RB and Barkley is an AM.

Priorities for me are 1. RM, 2. Back up ST, 3. AM, 4. RB

I'd like another goalkeeper if your selling Mucha.
Timbo

Second poster spot on (whoever you are?), priorities after Pienaar has got to be a right midfielder then attacker

WTF do we do next season if we dont get a RM, it's easy saying put Coleman/Barkley there, it will sort of work but not effectively, we can't be talking about spending money on a RB as Hibbo is good enough there for another couple of seasons, fair enough he doesn't bomb down the wing, take people on and shoot like Bainesee but he is effective there.

Pienaar - RM and if possible get Rodallega on a freebie - it's easy


Please no more people on about spending what pennies we have on a RB, priorities Blues, Priorities

Degsybluenose

Spot on degsy, why spend our money replacing a world class rb in Hibbo? I mean Barcelona aren't about to sign Andy Carroll to replace Messi are they?

18 Jun 2012 09:14:37
Just seen the fixture list and it's Looks a lot better than last seasons, we don't have all the top 5 one after the other! But if we do the pienaar deal and keep everyone else then I wouldn't be too worried with all the big teams one after the other !

Pineaar is the difference between us getting in europe or not next season, i think he is that important

Bez the blue

Europe Bez?! We're gonna win the league mate!

Wizard of Osman {Ed025's Note - love it wiz..

Of course osman mate, my mistake!!
Sign pineaar, naismith and keep our top players, anything is possible.

Bez the blue

Going to win the league with 114 points

ToffeeTony

If this would happen i woud love it beating utd at home and away
beating RS at pantfield and getting them relegated 20th spot 35points
we would be 3rd BIG JELLA

R/S relegated 0 points Jella!

Bumped into Ross Barkley cousin he told me Ross has had a growth spurt over the summer and has shot up to 6foot5 that's a inch taller than big dunk ....well every inch counts.........tristen

I seen Ross in Liverpool 1 last week, smaller than me and I'm 6'2, I smell BS Tristen

He's been on holiday for the past two weeks and was 6"2" and a half last season so he's grown by 2 and a half inches in two months not unheard of as he's only just eighteen he might grow to 6"7,the beast from wavo ............tristen

Ross has always got a pair of Nike 1.10s,and they put 2 inches on you,in his player profile he's 6'2 and giving his age will grow another inch or two,felliani and Barkley partnership will scare the crap out of the opposition

I seen ronnie corrbet in the aldi on Walton road he's 6'3 he just looks small when he's sitting in that oversized chair it's a well known fact that tv takes a foot of you,.................me

No Tristen, I seen him coming out of JD last Friday, and I last got my height checked last month, so I doubt it...

Thats is younger brother m8,jack he works there part time,Ross is away on holiday

There is only 1 jack who works in JD in liverpool 1 and it is not his younger brother. I know this because i am the only jack who works in JD in liverpool 1.. Capiche?

L.A Galaxy Played 13 w3 d2 lost 8 think its time landon came here full time must be tired of playing in such a crap team :)

ToffeeAL

Didn't realise they were that bad AL. I belive the players are on a few quid tho so maybe they don't even care.

Wizard of Osman

Well they won another last night but they look awful and I like to think Landon has a bit of ambition but maybe the mighty dollar does rule over there....pity

ToffeeAL {Ed025's Note - the family life, and standard of life over there, is a big factor al..

Come on landon, I think it's about time you put pen to paper on a permanent everton move...
