It's a pity that Canada doesn't have a sovereign 🤑 wealth fund. Then they could buy out are present bunch of carpet badgers.
TFG is fast becoming a swear word for Evertonions.

What a load of Tosh mate.

17 Sep 2026 15:00:45
So, are you pleased with owner that don't turn up for games, have never once spoken to the team manager, and hung us at to dry, in the transfer window?

17 Sep 2026 19:08:42
Why are you so fixated in whether they go to the games or not? Who really cares if they are at a match? They own the club and have people in place to oversee the day to day tasks.

Yes, the last day of the window wasn't great but when you have a deal almost done and then the (injured) player decides to pull the rug, there isn't much that could be done. Not signing the American lad was the right move, whether it was forced on the club or not, he hasn't been able to train or play since.

Maybe you're not aware, which is the reason for your constant repetitive, rage bait posts, but we are undefeated in the league and now through to the 4th round of the league Cup. Is there the slightest chance that you could at least be happ (ier) for just one day?

We were hung out to dry by Bolagun and Kinnear (and his cronies) .

TFG have distanced themselves a little which would make it easier if both teams were in the same European comp. They have pumped money into the club to secure our finances and I don't feel they are the worst owners out there.

Ndiaye was sold for far less than we should have gotten for a player with 3 years left on their contract. That's recruitment/poor negotiators fault.
Beto was allowed to leave without securing a replacement first. If they knew there was a problem with Balogun's injury earlier, they shouldn't have let him move or they should have a second replacement rather that the panic Zirkzee approach. Again recruitment.
Leaving the squad short. Recruitment.

I had hoped TFG may have ended Kineers involvement with the club by now. Maybe that's the mistake they have made and are sticking with him.

{Ed025's Note - the recruitment has been poor for a number of years BR, i suppose lack of finances has a lot to do with it mate but there has also been a lot of mistakes made..

18 Sep 2026 04:56:31
He isn't a recruiter, he is though very good in marketing.

17 Sep 2026 10:44:08
Dibling was excellent last night. Post yesterday saying loan him back to Southampton or try and get as much as we can for him because he's useless. Posts have called for the head of whoever brought him in. Now after one excellent game it's all positive. Patience is a virtue.

17 Sep 2026 11:30:12
It is Reg, we just need to give young players time. Barry is still crap though😂.

{Ed025's Note - we have got a lot of talent in the side now BMD, we just need the final pieces in the jigsaw mate, 2 strikers are paramount and if we can hold our own until January it could be a very good season for us..and yes Barry is still crap..

17 Sep 2026 12:04:20
He's bloody useless with head or foot.

17 Sep 2026 11:53:29
Who signed Barry because there is the problem someone in the club went and watched him train and play matches and still recommended we sign him. Anyone with eyeballs can clearly see he can't do anything he is terrible at every part of the game touch passing running finishing holding ball up attitude is all very bad so why and who signed the tube.

Whoever it is I hope they got the sack and aren't still out there scouting more future signings because if you watched this guy train and still signed him you would sign anyone and need your eyes tested.

17 Sep 2026 13:29:44
It was that home movie on Facebook, Dino, the one in his back garden where he was scoring worldies for fun mate ;)

17 Sep 2026 14:58:47
Cracking header though and a Worldy from a Virgin.

17 Sep 2026 15:25:50
Keepers' reflexes are akin to a cat on speed; that's true. Perhaps a lower-aimed header might have notched up a goal?

17 Sep 2026 17:04:46
Terrible header how did he miss straight at keeper it was should be scoring from 1 yard out.

17 Sep 2026 09:59:47
That was an extremely positive performance on the back of a decent preseason by Dibbling. Let's hope it continues, he has all the attributes to be a top player.
The squad is small and lacking in places sure however we are developing a hell of a midfield., really good age range as well.
Armstrong
Dibbling
Grealish
Hackney
Garner
KDH
Rohl
Norgaard
Alcaraz.

Newcastle next up for the Carabou cup at HD.

17 Sep 2026 01:20:43
An unreserved apology, I have been one of Diberlings, biggest critics, tonight he showed just what he has to offer.
Hope he can carry this form, into future performances, if he can we have something special on our hands.

17 Sep 2026 03:43:42
He looked a real player demanding the ball running by players he also looked happy, long may it continue.

17 Sep 2026 10:33:45
I also have some humble pie to eat. He was excellent which allowed us to stretch Wolves either wing.

17 Sep 2026 00:32:40
I already made a post about Dibling and how well he played tonight, but upon reflection there is something else I want to talk about. It is obvious that Tyler is a quiet, young man, no issues, but I fear that that has been mistaken for not loving the game and/or Everton. As a former athlete and lifelong introvert, expressing your love of the game/team does not come from interviews and practice clips and smiling to the camera.

Tonight he showed it through his play, his determination and work ethic. His pass to to Johnson was brilliant, but I loved the 50 yard sprint and goal denying challenge 15 seconds later even more. You could see the passion as he got back to his position and JOB gave him some much deserved appreciation.

That performance and assist will do him a world of good. Here is to hoping we can see that on a weekly basis. Just a little confidence and he will be a major contributor to this squad.

17 Sep 2026 07:50:09
Yeah its great to see - we all don't know what the players think of who they play along side - how important it is for JG to have KDH in front of him, for example, how he feels playing with the talent that is at the training ground every day.

17 Sep 2026 10:29:37
His track back and tackle was outstanding. If they score we crumble and we're out. Showed a real desire to work on and off the ball. Few tricks up his sleeve too. More to
Come from this lad and you can see why we paid 30 mill now. Keep him in and around the team, he'd be a great impact sub too.

16 Sep 2026 22:44:18
Weren't at our best tonight but aside from one real chance we dominated the game.

Dibbling was outstanding tonight and deserved his MOTM award. Some may moan because they think he should go past his man and run to the by-line but he's a different type of winger to a George. In fact when you compare Jack to him, which is who he more like, he produced way more moments in the game.

DH needs to support the right hand side more for him though, he hogs the left with his mate Jack. Charly came on and gave more options and support for Tyler when. He came on and was no surprise when he scored. Well done to the two of them.

Bring on Newcastle!

16 Sep 2026 23:01:11
Completely agree - i do think Dibling can beat his man far more than he does (he used to at Southampton) , but is just lacking in confidence right now, but tonight proved more than anything that he just needs support.

As you say, KDH naturally runs into that left channel, Garner tends to be quite deep and he only had O'Brien behind him last season. Hopefully, with AMN over, or underlapping, he has a few more options and is less likely to just run into his man.

That said, he needs to react to his own passes more. Turning back and playing a simple pass is fine, if you've got no options, but then he needs to get on his toes and make the run himself.

16 Sep 2026 23:12:53
Maybe having a recognised full back playing behind him, and supporting, him might help Dibbling.

17 Sep 2026 07:13:42
Yeah I agree guys but you always need a third to create the triangles. When it's just the two it's easy to defend straight lines. Charly for me is a really good player for the right as he likes that side of the pitch.

He tends to move side to side more than KDH. He's a number 10 more than an 8 but can do both adequately.

16 Sep 2026 22:31:42
I really hope Moyes starts Dibling on Sat, he was excellent and deserves a run of games. Also Charly, surely he deserves more game time, what a finish, could he play 9?

17 Sep 2026 09:41:09
Yeah i'd like to see Dibbling start for sure. Deserves it.
Ive no problem with Alcaraz getting more game time, even as a number 9.

16 Sep 2026 22:10:38
Would play Charlie or George a dc striker on Sat Barry is beyond useless.

16 Sep 2026 21:49:00
That was piss poor, Barry, Johnson? Waste of numbers, siblings was the only plus but we won't see him again until nxt season when he scores against us for Bournmouth, then graham will skin us with Sunderland, happy to get thru but damn, we are basic at best, and with mouse, we are west ham at best.

16 Sep 2026 22:00:07
Dibling won't see a minute in our next game and will have his confidence shattered again.

The creation of sport was for entertainment, what we play is not that. Glad to be through but i think if we go all out offensive tonight we win that comfortably and have a better feeling overall.

16 Sep 2026 21:59:45
That mouse has a lot to answer for.

16 Sep 2026 22:37:35
Well we did just squeak through.
