Everton banter 7

Hi edd.

I know estimates can sometimes be well off the mark, but, do you, or any of the pundits, have a educated guess at the wealth of Dan Frekin?
Givern the report's that he is now looking for outside investors, where we wrong to believe he had the capacity to pump prime the club back to the top level, or is he just unwilling to do so.?

{Ed025's Note - TFG are worth $12.7 billion AB, the money is not the issue mate its all about investment and profit margins, like them or loathe them they did save the club mate, we just have to hope they see us as a worthwhile project..

12 Sep 2026 11:51:28
Well, that's not too shabby.

11 Sep 2026 15:39:28
{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Ipswich Town v Liverpool - A Quick Liverpool Perspective

Team for the tmrw
Think Garner may need a rest after cramping up and coming back from injury.

Pickford
Maitland-Niles
Tarks/OBrien
Branthwaite
Myko

Hackney
Rohl

George
KDH
Dibbling

Barry.

Bring on around 60min.
Grealish
Armstrong
Johnson.

11 Sep 2026 16:29:23
If the two in middle getting overrun, drop KDH or Dibbling back to go 433.

11 Sep 2026 16:34:58
Johnson is not good enough, we have swapped like for like, the only difference is the name. He has been awful.

11 Sep 2026 17:18:09
If Garner is fit, he will play. Moyes will not start with Dibling.

{Ed025's Note - he should start with Hackney for me BMD..

11 Sep 2026 18:55:12
Yeah I agree, if he is fit.

11 Sep 2026 21:18:24
Jack will start as well, I think.

11 Sep 2026 23:00:31
Agree Ed, but you know Moyes he will play a half fit Garner pin front of Hackney. Also think Armstrong should keep his place ahead of Rohl. But for once isn't it a nice problem to have.

{Ed025's Note - i hope that if Jimmy is not fully fit he plays Hackney BMD, to be honest i would have hackney starting anyway..and Jack, why people want Dibbling to start or in fact Johnson is beyond me mate as they have failed to impress me yet, this is not a social experiment where we turn sow,s ears into silk purses..you have to play your best side, Spurs have been bloody awful up to now but if ever you want a team to play to get you out of a slump...thats Everton.. :)

12 Sep 2026 06:34:07
I only had Armstrong on the bench to avoid burn out. Small squad needs rotation, especially in midfield.

11 Sep 2026 11:56:33
We are going to get a win tomorrow, George and Barry on the scoresheet 0-2 yesssssssssssssss.

11 Sep 2026 13:27:36
More chance if it was George and Mildred.

???

11 Sep 2026 13:37:14
I'd love this GB!

I have a feeling it might go one way or the other with Spurs. They might roll over, or finally "click."

Hoping it's the former, because a win would mean it's a great start to the season.

11 Sep 2026 13:45:49
We cannot allow them to click. If we unsettled them to begin with, they have 0 leaders and will fall apart - I worry Moyes is too respectful, though, and we will allow them to gain confidence.

11 Sep 2026 14:07:38
Pressure them from the off, their fans will go scatty.

11 Sep 2026 14:36:27
If Dibbling gets on, he scores, I reckon.

11 Sep 2026 15:13:21
Not given anyone a good slap since Brighton so I feel a good old hiding is way past due. Something stinks at Spuds. 0 5.

10 Sep 2026 22:22:26
Seamy Coleman on the overlap is a good watch, that man can't get any more of a legend.

11 Sep 2026 09:32:33
Agree Bb, I really enjoyed it.

10 Sep 2026 21:31:12
If Richardson gets his contract terminated by Spurs, does that make him a free agent?

10 Sep 2026 20:03:23
The On Your Side project
Just a quick thought my fellow Evertonians,
I watched with interest the news item above tonight on the BBC.
It made me stop a think, could I have helped someone in the past.

A sobering thought.
At the next home game let’s ask that question?
Sorry if this seems a distraction from the normal banter.
But sometimes there are more important things than football, just.

Great post, Buggers, and it certainly puts football into perspective. ?

10 Sep 2026 22:42:53
Certainly need helping up those steps. Good post, Buggers.

10 Sep 2026 16:04:43
If we are seriously interested in this Argentina striker, and given current options, way wouldn't we be, then for piteys sake let's get it done before our usual hesantcy, sees him sign elsewhere.

10 Sep 2026 16:18:02
Who is this Argentinian striker? Hope it's not Straquilersie, although he tried hard.

10 Sep 2026 16:19:12
I was hoping we would get Karim Benzema. Just so we could say he once played for us. ?

10 Sep 2026 16:49:45
No, you have it the wrong way round. It's so he can say he once played for Everton, would top off his c/v.

10 Sep 2026 19:48:36
Icardi? If that's whom you are referring to, then there is a reason that, despite his ability, there aren't many teams rushing to sign him up. You only need to search him on the Internet to see some of the issues he has been involved in.

10 Sep 2026 19:51:10
Doubt he'd find us even with a map.

10 Sep 2026 21:37:50
If Richarlson convinces Tottenham to cancel his contract, does that make him a free agent?

11 Sep 2026 07:32:04
For a free transfer I certainly wouldnt say no. Question is, would he wanna join us, and also is he still with his missus Wonda? Blimey, she's fit, her.

10 Sep 2026 15:51:34
There’s a really good article on Toffeeweb about TFG and an assessment of any prospective sale, good read.

10 Sep 2026 13:26:05
Can't believe there is still negative stuff going on, we are 8th in the table, 5 points from 3 games and the Team is playing some great footy. Spurs fans would bite your hand off to be where we are. Time to enjoy Everton, oh and a nice 0-2 on Sat I.

10 Sep 2026 14:47:22
Calm down, GB, it's a bit early to be getting too excited yet. Yes, attacking wise we look easier on the eye, and it's certainly an improvement from hoofball. But you can't hide the fact that the defence looks very suspect at the moment, and that has to be sorted.


Normally, wait 10 to 12 games in before you get a feel for how the team is shaping up. Please don't think Spurs will be a pushover, mate; they have a lot of good players and once they gel together they will have a decent side. Just hope it doesn't happen this weekend.

10 Sep 2026 15:27:24
You know exactly what will happen on Saturday. We always do it. Spurs haven't scored this season. Spurs haven't won this season. This player hasn't scored in 200 games, but they are playing Everton. Boom. I really hope we get something on Saturday. COYB'S. ????

10 Sep 2026 15:28:47
We could be in a far worse position than we are, mate. The footy is so much better than the last few seasons. I don't need calming down any more than you do. I'm just happy at our good start, mate.

10 Sep 2026 15:54:38
Just my opinion, but I think if we had this team on the last day of last season, we would have sent Spurs down.

10 Sep 2026 16:31:56
We've played three games and got out of jail in two of those. Far too early to make predictions just yet.

10 Sep 2026 21:09:52
They were on an awful run last season and got a win against us, same with Newcastle.

Would be nice to buck the trend.

{Ed025's Note - it really would BR, i expect them to improve as the season goes on mate but hopefully we can do a job on them while they are vulnerable..
