The Kirkby project was doomed from the start and it cost the club a lot of money we don't have. Even if it had of gone ahead the stadium and location were terrible and I fear a lot of fans would have turned their backs on it. Should we blame kenwright for everything all though I do think he has been naive and gullible at times

Arsenal are getting Kalou for £3M! Surely we must have that? Very versatile player can play out wide and upfront like Donovan and is very quick seem like a perfect option and only for 3m!

Believable0 Unbelievable2

We cant afford to pay his high wages, just like Demba Ba and peanut would not could not afford £75.000 a week which will result in no high profiled striker come to Everton this month.
Maybe a championship striker like Maynard from bristol or a loan player and only paying precentage of the wages. one thing is for sure Everton needs to sign a striker very soon to lift moral for the supporters and the team.

Big game on wednesday! I think moyes should play as a striker with saha! Stick landon and gueye on the wings!
Howard
Neville distin heitenga baines
Gueye fellani cahill donovan
Saha
Drenthe

Believable1 Unbelievable4

Cahill is injured so is osman n Barkley I can see him playing Neville in midfield or maybe bily {Ed025's Note - lets hope not..

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Jan 2012 13:40:10
Hi Ed and other posters, didnt get to see the Tamworth game and i know they're a lower side but how did Bily go in the middle, i saw a couple of his belter shots on the highlights but how did he really go? And do you think we can afford to let him go considering there's no guarentee we'll be replacing him? {Ed025's Note - i think he found his level...he held his own against tamworth!,,

Believable1 Unbelievable0

I've always fought Billy's corner when everyone slags him off but I was at tamworth game and we was rubbish, don't no if id get rid tho, rest of team were rubbish, when Baines came on, it was a different world of football! {Ed025's Note - take it from me mate...he,s very poor..

Agree0 Disagree0

One word, SH*TE! He is dreadful. This should have been his time to shine against a non league team, in his 'favoured' position. He had everything that could make him look good and he still looked crap! Bye bye Billy. He has a good shot on him but if the rest of his game is poor then there is no point in having him. Peoples thoughts?

Everton Al.

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree Al I was at the game and was happy to see him starting in the centre but he was absolutely terrible need to get rid ASAP
Toffeeboy

Agree0 Disagree0

You all came to this assumption after watching 1 game in his natural position? Everybody can have 1 bad game, give him more time in the same position then be the judge. If he continues to not perform then by all means plead for his transfer, i think it's only fair.

heres one for you...ive just read DM comments when asked if he thinks the FA Cup has lost its shine and he said, yes he then said teams concentrat more on league position instead of a cup run because of financial situations(i agree) however he said giving a champions league spot to FA cup winners is PROBABLY to high.....MMMM i think thats a start of something there...WHY NOT..it is the champions league after all..and FA CUP WINNERS ARE CHAMPIONS same as LA LIGA CUP WINNERS etc etc....the champions league is a joke when 4th place get in it and FA CUP GET EUROPA so it should be called Th champions and almost's league...not saying that because we aint in it..im saying it because thats where TH FA CUP winners should....very negative from moysie there...id love to win the FA CUP AGAIN {Ed025's Note - me too

Believable3 Unbelievable1

Absolutely agree with you in that the winners of the FA cup should go into champo's league instead of fourth place, this would then put a shine back on the cup.

Degsy

Agree0 Disagree0

2nd 3rd,4th or cup winners should not be in the champions league. It should be the winners in each country and none of this dropping into the europe league for finishing 3rd!. The 2nd to 4th/5th in league and 2 cup winners go into a stronger europa competition.

Agree0 Disagree0

Totally agree. Give the runners up CL entry if the winner finishes in top 3 also. Get some of the mud table clubs earning CL millions. Really loving that idea.... COYB

Toffee ACE

Agree0 Disagree0

I agree that the Champions League should be for the Champions of each county...HOWEVER... it is UEFA's prestige tournament. If only the Champions are allowed in, it will be the smallest tournament... on a par with the African Cup of Nations! The Europa League is too long and drawn out a process. Another new format is what's needed.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Jan 2012 12:50:55
Moyes needs to start being more positive not just with team selections but with the way he speaks about the team! He needs to start bigging us up,showing some belief in them all give the lads confidence and they might start showing it! If he doesnt and we continue to play the boring negative crap we have been then the likes of baines,fellani,barkley etc will want out! Drenthe wont want to sign and we will eventually go down!
Yes we need investment and new plyers but we still hve a good enough team tht could easily finish top 7 if plying to there potential and if they have the managers trust! Investment is more likely come if were plying good football and winning games! And thts something moyes can do! Get the lads playing and everything else will fall into place!

After some recent rants on this site i have come to the conclusion that you just cannot get Everton out of your blood!
After recent appalling displays, negative tactics, no transfer activity and no passion, i swore never to set foot in Goodison until something changed...
Where was i Saturday 3pm...Same seat!!
We as fans cannot change anything, we just have to continue our support...
We are not David Moyes fans...
We are not Bill Kenwright fans...
We are EVERTONIANS, and we will continue to support through thick and thin
Lets get behind the lads and show them all what passion is!!
Big Nev {Ed025's Note - nice one big nev..

Well said big Nev and agree with everything you said fella.

Well, we are now over a week into the transfer window and as expected, absolute zilch is happening, what was moyes quote before the window " I know where we need to strenghthen the squad and i want to get my players in early, not at the last minute", welL it looks like same old , same old rubbish, are we waiting for a club to come for rodwell or barkley to enable us to spend anything, If so its a complete joke, and with no investment imminent this is going to be a long hard season, If we do stay safe this year then i predict next year we will be relegation candidates, Can someone please rescue our fantastic club please please...

BATTO EFC {Ed025's Note - well said batto..

09 Jan 2012 11:08:32
I have never seen DM looking so she'll shocked as he does now, he is very negative although the injury crisis is really bad at the club, and given the squad size players are not given enough recovery time. There is a lot of rumours re a takeover, I'm sure if one was close BK would keep moyes informed and to me that's not happening ! I expect DM to call it a day at the end of this season if nothing materialises! If that is the case I worry even more as to the quality of manager we could attract with no money!

Moyes has been good for the club - he's able to spot a potentially good championship defender and make him into an international (baines / jags / lescott ) - he also spotted Cahill, Pienaar and Arteta - low cost good buys - Andy Johnson and the Yak were also good buys - but...

he seems to have gone very stale - almost depressed - he has no fire in his belly when interviewed about us getting beat by other teams - he just limply said "bolton deserved to win" - (tell us why Moyes and tell us how you're going to fix it) and he said he'd "quite like a cup run but there's no point getting excited about one until you've played a few rounds, as we could draw Man City in the next round" - FFS man! most other teams if they drawn against a 'big team' they go there with guns blazing and give it a good go - Moyes is so defeatist now I can see why his players aren't playing for him.

Here's a couple of reasons why the fans are so hacked off with Moyes and his team...

1. his players have stopped competing for the ball - closing down the opposition - it only takes about 3 seconds at most to get up close to most opposition players - but all of our guys are standing off and watching what they're going to do - so they have time to pick out their best pass - even against struggling teams like Bolton - their guys are getting time on the ball - but as soon as we receive it we're closed down asap - and we get no time on the ball

why aren't we doing this simple thing?
if Moyes and Round aren't to blame - who is?

2. pass and move football - every football fan knows that most good teams play pass and move - the whole team pulling and working together and moving the ball forwards quickly - just 2 or 3 touches for each man until he passes it off - we stand around and pass it safe and sideways - and don't move into space to be able to accept a pass from someone else - the whole thing is static

you can see inferior teams to us doing this - with bog standard 1 million pound players - and we have players worth about 5m to 15 million strolling and jogging around the place or standing still or hiding behind opponents etc (don't want the ball)

there must be a serious issue with fitness levels at everton - plsu the fact that the players are not being told to play pass and move and close down opponents quickly

two or three simple but massive reasons why we're struggling - how come Moyes and Round can't see this?? {Ed025's Note - are you sure your not me in disguise?...everything you say is true in my eyes...very good post mate

Believable5 Unbelievable1

Good work mate..a post as good as that deserves a name attached.............g

Agree0 Disagree0

It's me - Mk1 - I've season ticket in the middle of the park end - for my sins - though I like to move about a bit as my kids seem to get bored if we stay in one place - so we've been in upper bullens - upper gwladys (too much swearing - and not just from me! ;) (I don't) - might try upper tier main stand next season - that's if I renew my tickets - at the moment me and the kids hate going cos the footy is so bad to watch!

Agree0 Disagree0

Simple. how can he continue to motivate himself which rubs off on the players, when those he has signed have had to leave for money to pay off debts. He is now working with loans and therefore cannot work miracles all the time. yes he may be well paid as people point out but money motivates people as well. If he had even a quarter of the money what that smug git across the park gets he would use it much better. besides a couple of players he has always bought well. when he had money! blueboy72.

I agree with people saying we look stale at the moment we are desperately in need of something to freshen things up takeover or new signings but both out of David moyes hands. Yes tactics have been negative recently but only because we all know we haven't got anyone who can score 20+ goals a season so why open the back door open, better to TRY and keep it tight that's what we did in Marcus bent days but it seemed we used to score 1st in games then a nick a win.

my girlfriends brother, well his girlfriends step dads nephew well he has a dog and the dog walkers bit on the side has a mate who lives in america and he said........... come on lads have you heard yourselfs!? someone puts a comment about david dein and a prince he once met and then a liverpool fan posts that the prince is buying us and you have all fell for it big time and some of the rumours have gone ridiculous! lets just concentrate on getting behind the team and hoping we get top 10 at least! then see what happens then! total re-build in attacking areas in needed! rest of the team is very good in my opinion! all we need IMO is a beast in midfield, we have no aggression in the middle, we need a playmaker and a couple of strikers. hopefully something happens in the summer and moyes get some backing and investment from somewhere. for now the lads chill out on the crazy rumours about a prince because it aint going to happen! lets get this season out the way as it is a complete write off and start again COYB {Ed025's Note - good post that mate, and i agree with a lot of it..

Believable5 Unbelievable0

09 Jan 2012 09:20:22
just a thought to see what ed and other everton fans think off this one,im not one off those everton fans shouting for moyes to go but maybe he should move on so he can have a challenge and let someone else have a challenge here at our beloved blues,not many managers spring to mind but i thought off these 2,see what you think 2 everton legends peter reid as manager and duncan ferguson as assistant,i think both would jump at the chance i know peter reid hasnt done much as a manager but at everton he could, it carnt get any worse at the moment........ stan the man {Ed025's Note - i see your point stan, but in the position we are in, we would need someone with their finger a bit more on the pulse!, peter has not managed in the prem for a while, and duncan never!...someone with a good recent record would be needed in my opinion,,

cannot beleive all these rumours about the prince take over. NOT LIKELY one bit. I started a thread on friday night linking david dein, the prince and a bloke from Twitter. saying not likely but possible link as prince was impressed with our support at an arsenal game in the 90s. And people on here are taking it way out of proportion. BS rating off the scale.
