I'm told our great Baxendale and past board accountant refused to appear at our last enquiry says it all.
1.) 26 Nov 2023 11:36:44
Walked away with a nice payoff, affected by nothing. No financial penalty for them or the Club. Instead it is a sporting penalty, punishing loyal supporters/ fans of the Club paying hundreds of ££££ every season.
2.) 28 Nov 2023 09:54:14
Pretty sure they didn't get called by the panel.
{Ed001's Note - they didn't.}
3.) 28 Nov 2023 18:07:52
What is done is done. Held their hands up (sort of) , but the 10 pts in my view is way over the top. Pay £20mill for a pie and pint on matchday (tongue) . 5 pts upon appeal fingers crossed.
{Ed002's Note - Yes it is harsh.}
4.) 28 Nov 2023 19:31:43
Do you think it will get reduced if we appeal Ed02?
{Ed002's Note - I expect so and hope the outcome to be a reduction and a suspension.}
5.) 28 Nov 2023 21:18:43
Suspension Ed002?
{Ed002's Note - As stated seems more likely.}
13 Aug 2023 09:23:53
Now it's reported Leeds want Tom Cannon it gets more involved by the day.
1.) 13 Aug 2023 09:31:55
Shots fired! Lol.
{Ed025's Note - they might bring the big guns out now mocker.. :)
2.) 13 Aug 2023 10:15:11
Gnonto lotta people know that.
04 Jun 2018 00:22:07
Lascelles back on the agenda we suffered a £45,000 fine some time ago for an unauthorised approach when he was with Forest, so perhaps we could get him for a little less than the £30m he's worth now!
1.) 04 Jun 2018 11:51:07
I'd take him. Good player in a poor Newcastle side.
2.) 04 Jun 2018 13:36:00
Perfect CB for us.
3.) 04 Jun 2018 19:09:22
I'd take his leadership. something we lack in abundance at the moment. for our team character is as important as skill.
21 May 2018 20:39:22
So Arteta is available again! I believe Marco Silva is nailed on however .
1.) 21 May 2018 20:59:47
yes it is.
Announced this week.
2.) 21 May 2018 23:02:31
Arsenal have got Emery. Gutted.
3.) 22 May 2018 06:31:40
I would prefer arteta to silva. It's a risk but one I could see paying off.
{Ed025's Note - thats half the problem with everton supporters kingy they are never happy, if we got arteta half would be saying he has no experience and ask what the board are doing, if silva comes in it will be all about his relegation with hull so its damned if they do damned if they dont, cant we all just be happy to move on from sam and give this gut the backing he deserves mate?..
4.) 22 May 2018 09:24:22
my preference is Silva but I will support whoever comes in I think we might finally got it right with brands and Elstone gone hopefully we can start moving forward on and off the pitch.
5.) 22 May 2018 10:12:45
I agree eds and who ever gets the job will get my full backing and should get everyone else's. I personally think the most important bit of business has already been done by sacking Walsh (who I personally blame for the majority of our problems over the past year or so) and getting brands in. Hopefully better times ahead.
6.) 22 May 2018 13:35:37
Totally agree Ed025, drives me crazy. Always people who will never be happy no matter what happens. No matter what I will support whoever becomes our manager as I always have. I'm just delighted that plenty of action is being taken by the club to take us forward. In every way.
Stadium, manager, dof, players etc. Its fantastic. I don't have much if anything to complain about. The future is bright blues.
{Ed025's Note - some are negative before the guy has been appointed NBTB and i cant understand why?, lets give whoever comes in a great goodison welcome and get behind him, the new DOF , the board and the team....we are all in this together mate..
7.) 22 May 2018 18:15:03
the reds call us bitter for a reason.
8.) 22 May 2018 21:44:59
Personally I think is stupid to use the relegation with Hull as a reason not to appoint him, Alex Ferguson would not have kept Hull up that year with that squad and marco silva still managed 27 Points including 2 wins over top six opposition (including Liverpool) .
17 May 2018 01:25:58
Marco Silva,
Reading through Wiki he has a career in management full of peaks and troughs from being sacked for not wearing the official club suit at Sporting to drifting in and out of clubs for personal reasons! Hardly the type I would be sure of for the future . and of course Watford are not happy bunnies at the moment . still cannot get my head around them blaming us for approaching them with £12million compensation or have we missed something regarding an illegal approach? . not something Everton of the past would be guilty of .
There are other managers out there that maybe are a safer bet. Fonseca?
1.) 17 May 2018 06:19:26
I read up on his past. Not just wiki though and I kind of got the same impression. It wasn't all bad though. I did read he was a brilliant for settling teams. He supposedly befriends the payers individually and he's one for doing training set pieces on throw ins and excuse the term used here but all the little things.
But I will admit I've got all my fingers crossed for Fonseca too haha.
2.) 17 May 2018 07:47:45
fonseca has or is signing a contract extension at Shakter so wipe him off the list I think it's out because emery or Silva with Silva being the favourite.

I thought Braithwaite wanted a move is he settled now?!
1.) 23 Jul 2023 19:25:43
He's on holiday mate, and given our lack of decent centre backs it's crucial we keep the lad.
2.) 24 Jul 2023 18:24:46
He’s back today, Monday and didn’t sound too upbeat about challenging for his position.
We would be mad not to give him a run, clearly a player there.
3.) 24 Jul 2023 19:16:14
Beats playing Keane with Tarks. They have to give him a go; we’ve lost Mina and Coady!
02 Apr 2023 09:44:52
Is it possible that other clubs have been written to regarding our charges and that they have been told it will be dealt with by May. Surely there is a fair procedure to follow and the right to appeal.
1.) 02 Apr 2023 15:30:32
Everton will be allowed one appeal. It won't be sorted this season.
14 Feb 2023 10:31:45
May be time to pick a forward or two from the ladies team. And perhaps the Chelsea manager.
1.) 14 Feb 2023 12:07:06
What’s the Chelsea manager going to do?
Dyche has had 2 games - with a 50% win percentage and you want rid already?
2.) 14 Feb 2023 13:48:22
The way some of our fans think is that Dyche plays 2 games and should of won 3. Typical. And we wonder why we struggle as a club. Let's go all out for Pep and when he loses 1st game we can call for his head too. Unbelievable some of our fans.
04 Feb 2019 13:11:10
Never thought I would be saying this, but it's time to bring back Mr Moyes.
1.) 04 Feb 2019 16:51:33
Please tell me your in Amsterdam mate?
{Ed025's Note - please tell me hes in boadmoor.. :)
2.) 04 Feb 2019 17:20:42
Not exactly having your cake and eating it. Silva is here and for multiple reasons he will remain.
08 Jul 2018 21:18:44
Transfer Window
Frustratingly less than four weeks to go and Its like being in a sauna watching the sand pour through the timer, I think it may well be the next window when we see some real action . or next year! The list of names seems endless the signings a blank sheet . worried!
1.) 08 Jul 2018 21:29:47
No worries mate, Marco and Marcel know what they are doing.
2.) 08 Jul 2018 22:12:18
They might well do, but have they got the financial clout of our previous manager (s) doesn’t look like it . sell first buy later, is later too late?
3.) 08 Jul 2018 22:18:19
I didn't want to come across negative but totally agree Jonno. The squad remains unbalanced and taking into account getting rid of player, we really need to get 3-4 in and gel them into the group before the season starts. The teams around us are doing it but as GB says, got trust in Marcel and Marco. I don't still be going all out for Tierney though.
4.) 08 Jul 2018 23:14:04
A lot can happen in a short space of time. I for one would rather Silva take the week in Austria to assess who he is willing to let go. There’ll be no shortage of takers for the players we’d want to get rid of. The impression I get is that we have money but don’t want to end up with a huge squad. Stay calm, signings will come.
5.) 09 Jul 2018 07:22:54
Agree totally mate.
6.) 09 Jul 2018 08:41:28
I still don't get this wave of optimism. Last season was a disgrace for a football club of our stature. The first 3rd of the season had us looking like certain relegation candidates. We sacked a manager, put another temporarily in charge and then brought another in to "stabilise" us. People can argue all they like about managers and coaches and the differences they make. My own view is that we were without Coleman, Jags and Baines for a lot of that period and only stabilised when they returned to playing regularly. Kenny and Martina were poor fullbacks defensively and attacking wise. Williams looked unfit and Keane lost confidence. Here we are a year on and so far have sold Rooney who contributed 11 goals and Mori who had been out injured but was a decent player previously if not the greatest. Our 2nd choice keeper has also now gone and rumour is that Leipzig have made another offer for Lookman who is rumoured to want to go? The new management have stated that we will sell some established players if we can. So far not a single new player although you can argue that some of the younger players will be better equipped for Premiership football now. We will see on that one. But the elder ones on big contracts who have been told they need to find other clubs will be hard to shift. Firstly, they moved their families to the area based on the big contracts they were given. Secondly, after their poor form last season, they are unlikely to be offered contracts as good as Everton gave them to get them to sign. so we may be stuck with them. and now they will be pretty cheesed off because they know they are not wanted. Yes I know this is a negative post again, but I try to look at it as someone with a little footballing knowledge and maturity to the point of an overall view rather than one with blue tinted glasses. Maybe its my age after seeing and hearing promises made season after season. only to be let down continuously? Either way, I do hope against hope that things will improve and we will make some great signings. but a month or so ago I posted with a similar post saying that nothing would happen until after thw World Cup player wise. I guess we will all know what we start with in 3 weeks time, but for now we start with the same squad as last season with a couple gone and the return of Jags, Baines and Coleman. fit at the moment but getting older each season. And a wave of optimism fro some supporters that I hope to be getting myself soon when we do kick off.
7.) 09 Jul 2018 09:02:06
Its quite obvious to me that money talks in this league barring a miracle ie Leicester C, if you think we can compete in this league on a Championship budget think again . The owners at West Ham God bless them nearly got lynched last year . they are now spending like its gone out of fashion . we need to be cautious, yes, but we need some high class performers to lift the team and gel the younger players . most believed that the new Chairman would be able to lift us financially and he seems to have got cold feet judging by what we read and hear . yes poor transfer deals last year but he employed those people after all .
{Ed002's Note - I don't know who is feeding all of this nonsense to you but what Championship budget are Everton competing on? I would very much like to know.}
8.) 09 Jul 2018 09:16:32
If it is believed that 24 mill is too much for the most promising left back, we are living in cuckoo land .
Further, yes we made signings that didn’t work out, just a quick look through other teams with similar or bigger budgets they have all bought players that have not adjusted to the Premiership and have been devalued .
For me its about getting a leader on the pitch, Peter Reid may not have been the greatest player (13 England Caps only) but what he did have, was a winning mentality he lifted the players around him by their bootstraps, if only we could find another like him .
{Ed002's Note - Tierney's long term future is not with Everton - at best they would provide a temporary home for him and clubs don't like doing that.}
9.) 09 Jul 2018 09:21:19
I just don't understand why people can't get their heads around the statements that we have too many in the 1st team squad and we need to reduce that before we bring in anymore players. To me that statement means we will not be signing anyone until we have reduced the squad significantly. How quickly we can do that will be down to the management team but any transfers in during this window will be a massive bonus in my opinion.
{Ed002's Note - There seem to be a growing number of fans whoi just want to see transfers happening - it doesn't matter who they are of course, just as long as the club are spending lots of money.}
10.) 09 Jul 2018 09:28:35
You’ve said it all Ed 002 as I was saying Championship mentality, sorry but look across the park if you dare, yes Champions league etc . but how much have they spent this Summer already? Now Utd are after Lanzano etc etc
We need to compete, Walcott and Tosun both stated they moved partly because we had Rooney on the books having players of his calibre is a magnet, that's another point .
Marco stated that he had some big names in mind in his first press conference, bring it on!
11.) 09 Jul 2018 09:32:56
Wrong, we want to see some quality transfers. and they do cost lots of money and it certainly does matter who they are!
{Ed002's Note - Not at all - otherwise we would not be seing all of these nonsense posts from you. You expect everything to happen overnight as if it were a race. The club has been making a concerted effort to look to players who can improve the team, regardless of what they cost - but the squad needs a trim.}
12.) 09 Jul 2018 09:36:03
Jonno just to clarify a couple of points with you.
1) Westham have so far spent a grand total of £32M in this transfer window, that includes taking in one player on a free.
2) Who is our new Chairman? I think you will find it is still BK.
I was going to say stop trolling but then thought you may actually be dumb enough to believe what you have written.
13.) 09 Jul 2018 09:40:34
Overnight, no . too many years yes . It is a race, we lack quality, we lack players in key positions, we have under four weeks until the window closes
Nonsense posts . that's your opinion I.
14.) 09 Jul 2018 10:00:53
I find it incredibly funny that I post about other people who have this over optimistic view (in my humble opinion) based on the new management team. Then people come on moaning about signings and money? I am not even saying the management team is not good. just that we are currently in the same position as last year. minus 2 good players. and with a couple of players being asked to perform at the end of their careers for yet another season. Our left hand side is weak and cover for defenders in general is poor. Of the defenders we have, none are top 6 calibre other than Coleman. That includes the cover we have: Keane, Williams, Holgate, Kenny, Martina and Baines are at best currently midtable players. Perhaps Keane, Kenny and Holgate will continue to improve, but none are top 6 calibre yet. Yet some fans continually berate me for saying things like this and then say everything is going to be ok because Moshiri and co will sort it. I really hope they do, but I see a squad based on a lot of right sided players. A lot of older established players and a lot of youngsters who as yet are not proven and when given a chance last season early on because of injuries to first team players crumbled under the pressure. I am sure Moshiri and co will make investment when they can but like in my previous posts, I say that shifting players out when they are on good contracts is not easy. and the management have said we cannot bring players in until others have gone. a sort of stalemete at the moment. I thik Ed002 will agree that moving players on is a complex and difficult task when the player is on a good contract and ageing. Rooney as an example. I believe both Man Utd and Everton are paying part of his wages. Ed has previously pointed out we are still paying the wages of 2 previous managers as well. This is not a good position to be in because a squad needs to gel and be happy. When you have older players hanging around for the financial benefits rather than hungry for success, it breeds discontent with other players. I think Silva has a huge task ahead and am not sure he is the man but time will tell and I sincerely hope I am wrong in my assessments. but what is important is that fans do not turn against the club if things start badly. like in previous seasons.
15.) 09 Jul 2018 11:00:26
So negative, the previous managers bought and bought, without really selling anyone. We have a huge squad, and need to get rid of the dead wood.
We have a good side who are capable of finishing top 7, as proven last year when we climbed the table and with kids coming through we should be excited.
We're on the up.
16.) 09 Jul 2018 11:16:15
Degsy the problem is we have too big a squad so we will try to sell players that will bring in money we will also have to let players go that may want to leave for their own reasons. I suspect both Rooney and Mori fall into these categories. in order to get us in a place were we can move forward the management will have to make hard choices that some fans will not like. I think the season will be a transition season but I still think we have a top 8 squad and do not think things will be as bad as you expect.
17.) 09 Jul 2018 15:24:59
I think you are right SA90 we have far too big a player base and need to get rid of excess baggage. It appears that some on this forum believe we need to get rid of players to finance new players coming in. That is not the case, we need to get rid of players because we have far too many. We have (reportedly) over 36 players, that is at least 10 more than can be included in our squad, why would we add to that? What do those players do? no wonder there are problems with more than 10 players sitting around with zero chance of first team football.
If the right player becomes available then I think funds would be made available. It is only fans who are saying we must sell to finance any new players, the same fans who are starting to ask why Marcel Brands has not yet found us the next footballing prodigy for less than a million pounds.
I feel a lot of fans will be questioning what is happening at the end of the season as many will be wanting results from the very start, whilst that will be nice I have the feeling it will not happen. The rebuild will take at least 2 seasons and possibly 3 and to me it looks as though we are rebuilding the backroom stuff first, this would be a great tactic if it is correct and makes perfect sense.
Oh well time will tell.
18.) 09 Jul 2018 18:45:15
I read this post and started panicking, until I realised it was 4 weeks till the end of the window and not 4 hours. PHEW!
what will be will be. I trust brands and Silva and Moshiri so I'm not panicking, just enjoying the world cup.
{Ed025's Note - i think we all are smit mate..
19.) 09 Jul 2018 21:41:38
Sensible post son of Grumpy.
Hypothetically we have say, 60 million to spend on 3 or 4 quality players. We rush out and buy 3 at 20 million each. Not bad eh?
Well, another scenario is. We have 60 million to spend on 3 or 4 players but we wait, all of a sudden we get rid of 5 or 6 recouping 35 million.
Now we have 95 million to spend on 3 or 4 players. And buy 3, 30 million pound players.
I know which one I'd prefer.
02 Sep 2024 16:38:26
Yes we have never got over the ban we had from playing in Europe - short memories.
13 Aug 2023 12:45:47
Wiki have Jack Harrison as an Everton player someone’s quick sadly they write Everton F c obviously too quick to press the caps key!
08 Jul 2023 07:11:34
It’s not a straight 8 million it’s dependent on goals scored and Swansea gaining promotion etc. 4 million on table or thereabouts.
31 Jan 2023 17:03:40
What is Thelwell there for? We are a laughing stock yet again.
27 Jan 2019 12:29:54
Problem is season after season we are asked to get behind the team and with the poor signings we seem to make, year on year, sooner or later you become negative posters!
31 Jan 2023 23:58:13
FFP Chelsea managed it spreading the cost over 8 seasons, are mobey has gone on Championship grade footballers and the stadium. We must all show the world what real supporters can do getting behind the team. It’s are only hope tbh. I’m gutted by the past ten years or more it’s a disgrace.
09 Jul 2018 09:40:34
