I am truly grateful for Moyes saving our club from relegation, and the damage it would have done to our club. However, some resent rumours leave me greatly concerned that we might be about to repeat some of our recent disastrous decisions.
Signing old stars, past there best on big money long term deals. Lindooft, from united, the two from west ham, plus resigning Keane, or god for bid Harrison, such steps are what put us in this mess.
Without detracting from Moyes achievements, it should be acknowledged that our salvation was considerably assisted by the lamentable quality of the three promote clubs.
The future is surly in young, hungry individuals, and yes they may require some polishing, and will make mistakes along the way, but they would have to be real accident-prone to match the frailtys of a Keane.
I hope my fears are routed in paper rumours, I just don't want our new dawn to fail on a repeat of past mistakes.

Don’t believe everything you see on the internet, Moyes strongest asset is his eye for a player, pienaar cahill yobo the list goes on and on even soucek and coufal at West Ham all relatively unknown. Let’s wait until we actually see the signings he makes before judging?
2.) 26 Apr 2025 12:01:38
I totally agree with you PSG. Today’s team sheet speaks volumes. Why oh why pick Harrison yet again and Doucouré and leave out Alcarez. Surely with safety now assured we should be experimenting with some of our younger players to see if they can make the step up next season. Moyes must know by now who he wants to keep and who is not good enough, us fans certainly do. Why keep picking players who in our eyes have no future at the club. Now is the perfect time to blood certain players and maybe save ourselves some money and wages in the transfer window.
3.) 26 Apr 2025 14:29:31
He sees them all in training week in week out.
4.) 26 Apr 2025 14:57:41
Moyes has not saved us. I never liked Dyche, but as quite a few reckoned, under Dyche we would have finished 15th to 17th. Same as with the messiah who a lot wanted back. Both Dyche and Moyes are like a mathematical equation. Both have a common denominator. Neither go out to win. One went out to not concede goals, the other not to lose. All very well and dandy, but, neither methods will get you challenging for a top 6/ 7 place or, winning a cup to qualify for europe. Successful sides go out to win and have big players some with egos. Neither Dyche or Moyes handle egos or big players. Moyes proved this at Man Utd and in Spain. Both build sides with workhorses and then when gone someone has a mess to sort out. I said some months ago Moyes was not the answer for long term success and nothing has changed my mind. So we enter the final games next week and wonder where we will end up. At least not in the Championship.
5.) 26 Apr 2025 15:38:49
Will all change next season Nick, Davey will be be with several new recruits mate, exciting times am glad this season is almost over and he can rebuild in the summer, we stayed up end of mission for him.
6.) 26 Apr 2025 16:27:34
Moyes may well see them all in training but that does not always equate to which players to give time to. I read week in week out how improved in training Harrison is, gets to match time and he is consistently lacking. He may well run his legs off, but when it comes to crossing a ball he is rubbish. We need to give game time to Alcarez, Chermiti, Tim not to mention several in the under 21 team.
7.) 26 Apr 2025 17:58:03
Get used to it, I wouldn't expect much to change next season under DM.
8.) 26 Apr 2025 18:02:14
Of course it does we only see part of it he sees it all, would prefer his judgement myself, but only my opinion also let’s see who comes in in the summer and just as important who goes then we can have a gripe YY.
9.) 26 Apr 2025 18:03:08
Yes SD would have kept us up but we wouldn't be safe yet and if you think that being safe on last day is acceptable then you're mad. Moyes clearly has saved us and saved the fans from the doom. And for the 3rd time in 4 weeks I'll end with "raised form breeds raised expectations" DMs going to get a predictable backlash now but until we sign some new players, we have what we have. I agree Alcarez should play more but clearly something with his deal and the financials is being played out and why not as we are safe. Barely any of us can name a youth player let alone a few to step up as we don't have any close enough. Also we have had 5 seriously tough opponents. I'm chuffed generally but now it's all about next season. This ones done. Still think we get a few more wins and will be in mid 40s and SD would be nowhere near that haul. Get real.
10.) 26 Apr 2025 18:37:39
Sensible post FBS, until Davey has his own new recruits no point moaning our Team is what it is, we stayed up end of now on to exciting times.
11.) 26 Apr 2025 21:38:28
Dyche this season didn't remotely look like getting us to 15th. TFG made the right call at the right time and it worked out forbtheir investment.
12.) 27 Apr 2025 09:41:20
Yam Yam, which several u21 players should get game time?
13.) 27 Apr 2025 10:43:32
Martin Sharif, Omari Benjamin, Roman Dixon to name but 3. Our current strike force week in week out sadly lacking, we could do worse than giving these guys a shot. Same with Dixon. Ok they might make mistakes but it’s all about getting experience and seeing how these guys can step up. We have nothing to lose in our last few games and who knows we might be surprised.
{Ed025's Note - i think your right YY and cant believe we are playing the same 11 virtually every week mate, i dont want to have a go at at the manager because he has done well results wise but should he really be playing players who have no future with us?, or do Leopards never change their spots?, we will certainly have a better clue when next season starts when hopefully we will have cleared out the dross and brought in some good players..
14.) 27 Apr 2025 16:49:14
I don't think we should have an under 21 team. We should play the u18s there instead as it will teach them how to play against bigger, stronger, faster players as i find u21 to be sterile and doesn't provide the appropriate schooling for young players.
Any players they thunk potentially able to make the first team they could send on loan to Championship or abroad to prove they can make it. The list of previous players proves this to be a more effective method to develop players.
15.) 27 Apr 2025 18:00:32
Think Ipswich Leicester and Southampton kept us up.
16.) 27 Apr 2025 23:42:49
The one answer to concern about Moyes. Our new owner are not big on sentementalty, they have shown at Roma, if the manager does not deliver, afder they have put in squad building support, he is very quickly, down the road, regardless of their attachment to the clubs history.
So, I am far from convinced the he is the man to return Everton to football's top table, but the proof of the pudding will quickly show in the results, but please, no more players brought in at the fag end of their sell by date, big contracts that if they don't deliver, cannot be moved on because they are on redicles wages.
17.) 28 Apr 2025 18:07:04
DM has given us what some of the fans, me included, thought was beyond our capabilities, that is PL football at BMD.
When I read stuff about the Hammers and the predicament they are in now and how Potter has pretty much failed to ignite them, I wonder what's next for us, TFG as previously mentioned seem to put results before over sentimentality etc. .
Our new stadium plus investment in new players will certainly be a new benchmark for the supporters and owners alike, I hope David Moyes does well next season, I really do because I am sure the scrutiny dial will be turned up a tad.
15 Apr 2025 19:24:49
A certain site, has us selling, Branthwaight, and Armstrong, and saying we have no hope of landing Delap, as he will pick united or spurs, well looking at the table, that does not seem automatic.
Spurs, perennial also ranes, and United are in a whole dug by mister Radcliffe ( and long my it continue)
So, Branthwaight is staying, Armstrong an Everton star in the making, and Delap banging in 20 for us, first season.
1.) 15 Apr 2025 19:40:44
I was reading Delap wants to join Chelsea and play with his pal palmer and European football ?♂️ and just seen spurs want mycko because city fancy undogie. And the transfer bollox continues lol ?.
2.) 16 Apr 2025 00:13:13
I would understand if he picked Chelsea over us Ron. London, more recent success, higher wages. We have improved under Davey but our squad is still poor.
If Spurs want to take Myko, I would be all for it. Average fullback that needs replacing if we want to kick on next year and challenge for top half/ Europe. There are 10 left backs better than him, which by that logic, means we need an upgrade.
3.) 16 Apr 2025 07:31:19
Oh no i totally agree about delap preferring Chelsea but can't see spurs wanting myko they like attacking fullbacks. Both team's will probably have new managers in the summer aswell.
4.) 16 Apr 2025 07:49:41
Myko has been solid since moysey came back we have the best defence in that league wouldn't want to break it up. salah never got a sniff in the two derby's maybe spuds are seeing that.
5.) 16 Apr 2025 12:10:24
Did salah not assist and score at Goodison. And I'm not arguing with you TL but i haver never rated myko so I won't change my mind. out of position for me to much.
6.) 16 Apr 2025 14:10:50
I think he is reaping the rewards of the other 4 in that defence tbh TL.
I will never knock Myko as he tries his hardest but there is just no escaping how limited he is for me. Totally agree Ron, the amount of chances/ goals conceded as a result is concerning.
I think it is very achievable to get somebody in who is as solid defensively but offers more on the ball and going forward. As I say, there are comfortably 10 better than him in this league, let alone further afield.
7.) 16 Apr 2025 16:33:56
To be fair to him I thought he did a great job on Salah at Anfield. Also when he first came to us he got forward a lot. Maybe working under Dyche has taken the edge off the lad?
8.) 16 Apr 2025 17:50:45
Do you reckon so Brass.
I think he is dreadful going forward. No ability on the ball to beat a man or deliver it. 1 assist per season on average in roughly 3 seasons is so poor in todays game.
One of the easiest positions for us to improve this summer. It would have been the same on the other flank had Moyes not played a masterstroke in playing Big Jake there.
Again, nothing personal against Myko as he tries within his limits but his limits are very apparent.
9.) 16 Apr 2025 20:17:52
So have a go at Micky because he doesn’t get forward and cross a ball, but O’Brien who doesn’t get forward and cross a ball is doing great?
10.) 16 Apr 2025 22:17:52
Just saying he did a good job on Salah at Anfield. On another point it might help him get forward more if we had some consistency from our wide men. We rotate them more than a pig on a spit.
11.) 17 Apr 2025 13:32:08
Have a go? Can you not read plain English. Not once but twice did I say it wasn't personal. You do realise that you can pass an opinion on a player without "having a go" don't you?
Bit of a strange thing to compare the two of them but hey, you did, so may as well break it down.
O'Brien has played 12 games, Myko over 100. One is playing in his actual position and one is being asked to fill in as a makeshift RB. One has scored 0 goals and 0 has scored 2. One is in his first season after being practically abused by the previous manager and one is in his 4th.
12.) 19 Apr 2025 06:59:29
Certainly getting forward more under our refreshed coaching staff. I never rated Bainesy as a fullback but great as a wingback particularly with peanut. O'brien is earmarked as in a future CB partnership and has benefitted by having non-other than Harrison in front of him. See what our Summer brings. A massive ask but RB, RW, LB, CM and Striker needed but where do the funds come from?
15 Apr 2025 18:58:23

Burnley's claim for compensation seems to rest on their claim that the delay in the league's move against Everton should have been dealt with sooner .
If that is the essence of their claim, then surely, their claim is against the premier League and not against Everton.
Please could one of the Ed's clarify if this is a correct interpretation.
1.) 23 Apr 2025 18:53:32
''The basis of any claim for damages dates back to season 2021-22, when Burnley finished 17th on 35 points and were relegated from the Premier League 4 points behind The Toffees, who finished 16th.
Burnley claim that Everton's initial 10-point deduction (subsequently reduced on appeal to a 6-point deduction) should have rightly been applied in that season, and not deferred to the following season. In which case, it would have pushed Everton down into the relation zone on 33 points, thus allowing Burnley to have stayed in the Premier League… with what would have been massive consequences to The Toffees. ''
The subsequent 2-point deduction also levied in 2022-23 would have seen Everton still stay up on goal difference in a season when Leicester, Leeds and Southampton were all relegated. Those three clubs, as well as Nottingham Forest, dropped their compensation claims upon the reduced penalty.
Quite how much, if any, compensation Burnley would be entitled to remains rooted in legal arguments between the two clubs and could take some time to fathom out given that there has been no precedent in the Premier League, beyond the somewhat different case when Sheffield Utd sued West Ham Utd for using players deemed later to be illegal when third-party ownership issues came to light.

Justice won’t win out here. It’s a game between two sets of lawyers. Best lawyer wins. That’s why you hear more about the Kardashian’s than OJ.
3.) 23 Apr 2025 19:38:07
Didn’t they settle out of court (WHam and Sheff) for £20m or something? Wouldn’t be surprised if we did something similar.
4.) 23 Apr 2025 22:05:15
Just hold out because PL clubs can't sue each other. Wait out over the summer and it will sort it self out.
5.) 23 Apr 2025 22:23:34
There is no way Burnley can make a claim against Everton - if it does happen then it’s free market for any other club in the league to challenge the likes of Man City, Chelsea, Bournemouth etc in light of their spending giving them an advantage - the league then becomes a laughing stock and the premier league brand is ruined.
Burnley if did have a case would have to challenge the league and not the club as all clubs are governed by the premier league and it’s them who are ultimately responsible for how rules and punishments are governed.
Ultimately it just appears to be sour grapes on the part of Burnley and can’t see it going anywhere without having massive consequences for the premier league as a whole.
{Ed025's Note - i hope you are right Dan mate..
23 Apr 2025 12:17:29
There seems to be a suggestion that, Armstrong might be allowed another season in the championship, to, in the long term, develop his game .
I'm not to sure he is not ready for first team involvement, however, if he is allowed to go to Burnley, they are now in the prem, but if they come in with a loan offer, for me it would be on the condition that they dropped their nonseance claim for relegation compensation against Everton.
1.) 23 Apr 2025 13:38:11
Wouldn't do them any favours whatsoever, it's embarrassing what they are tryong to do with the legal route.
On HA, it's only the press that seem to be linking him to other clubs right now. In his press conference last week, DM said no decision will be made on whether the lad goes out on loan again until the coaching staff have had a good look at him in pre-season. It might well be that he comes on tour with us, gets some minutes under his belt and then see what is best for both club and player. Personally, I'd keep him with us next season, we are about to lose a few midfielders as it is.
2.) 23 Apr 2025 16:14:21
If he's good enough he's old enough. Derby players have nicknamed him Bruce Wayne aka Batman. Because he's their super hero?.
20 Apr 2025 10:18:15
I am extremely grateful for the job Moyes has done in savings the club. However it does not make him inflatable, to continue to select Harrison, is almost to send the side our with ten men.
The player is beyond useless, and Moyes has been a witness to his falings on numoues ocations, results now are prity unenportant, but moral and prize money is still relevant, please, give him a map, and point him towards the M62, and under no circumstances off him a contract.
{Ed025's Note - i cant see the merits of playing Harrison or Doucore myself PSG unless hes thinking of keeping them?, if he does my stance on the manager will probably change i expect, surely this is the time to give the fringe players a chance to show what they have to offer?..or is it just me..
1.) 20 Apr 2025 11:07:35
Not just you Ed. Can’t see the point in playing players who are not likely to be at the club now. I get he wants to have a look at the likes of Broja, but surely it would be a good chance to look at some of the U21s?
He must have seen enough of Harrison by now to realise he’s not good enough. Dacoure clearly playing for another contract these last couple of games, because he’s been poor all season.
My worry now is if Tarks is injured is he going to play Keane? When it would make sense to move O’Brien into the centre with Branthwaite and see how that works these last few games.
And before people say oh the moaners are out. It’s not moaning it’s an opinion, one I’ve had all season.
{Ed025's Note - im with you on that BMD, i would also play Jake alongside JB and have Patto at right back and see how that goes, it would at least confirm if we need to strengthen in those areas if nothing else mate, i would also be playing Chermiti up top because its clear to me that Beto and Broja are neither use nor ornament as a centre forward in this league..
2.) 20 Apr 2025 11:24:26
Totally agree, need to play Jake centre back and give Patterson a go. Again agree with giving Chermitti a go up front, I believe he is better than Beto and Broja and should start. Just been watching match of the day, would love us to go for Mbuemo, I know we won't and would not get him but what a great striker he is, quick and knows how to finish.
3.) 20 Apr 2025 11:38:30
We don’t have any other wingers though like I’ve said we would have no pace out wide so we would be even worse, mcneil should be fit now so expect him to start over him, as for doucoure he’s not as bad as everyone makes out what has alcaraz done to merit starting over him? Plus aren’t we playing it clever so we don’t have to pay the buy out?
Hard to criticise when we have no alternatives but I guess some of you just hate Moyes and nothing will change that.
{Ed025's Note - i dont see it as a hate thing TB just an alternative view on how we would like to see things pan out mate, nobody has said that Dave has not done well and we are all grateful for the job he has done so far, but now its about looking to the future and the building of a new squad and a team that can progress further..
4.) 20 Apr 2025 11:44:22
As much as I don't rate JH, yesterday wasn't that bad of a performance from him. Maybe that's because he hasn't set the bar too high since he's been here but I wasn't on his case half as much as usual yesterday.
I don't think we will tinker too much against Chelsea but the other games are a good chance to take a look at other players before the end of this season.
DM got his sub wrong after Tarks went off, he should have left MK on the bench, moved Jake into the cb slot and brought on a RB. Probably his biggest mistake that's cost us since he came back. MK sucks the confidence out of every player and we go to pieces.
5.) 20 Apr 2025 12:18:29
I like us to give couple under 23 wingers ago like that Brady graham and maybe give like shreiff run out.
{Ed025's Note - im with you there Bretto..
6.) 20 Apr 2025 17:05:56
I would say Moyes and Coaches know what they are doing. Why on earth would they visit these pages for advice. As for Harrison, we do not have a RW, I suspect he will not be staying. Doucoure, let's just say I only see him live at home games and my opinion differs from some and more aligned with Moyes. If he really wants to stay, let's see how much his agents push for that.
7.) 20 Apr 2025 17:24:12
Moyes is inflatable ???.
8.) 20 Apr 2025 19:38:28
Harrison is not a right winger. Right wingers have pace and take people on. He does neither.
The manger and trainers know what they are doing. Now where have I heard that before?
Many on here saying that about Dyche when he wouldn’t play O’Brien. “He sees him in training we don’t”. Remember that?
9.) 20 Apr 2025 21:35:31
Give him a call BMD.
10.) 22 Apr 2025 16:13:21
I did dms, told me to f**k off. Think being a jock he doesn’t like the idea of paying Harrison 90k a week for sitting on his arse.
17 Apr 2025 18:06:21
See goodison news, is once again try to put Branthwaight up for sale.
Bottom line, unless the player himself tries to push though a move (and at present there is no sign of him doing so) then the player will see us all at BMD, end of story. We give the boy a nice contract, and with Keane out of the picture, their is a 80/ 90 per week saving there to put into a new contract, so know problem.
1.) 17 Apr 2025 19:00:49
Problem is unfortunately most players want to play for the big clubs - we need to make a few statement signings to get him to stay and attract others.
2.) 17 Apr 2025 21:27:09
The players are ambitious their agents want what comes with it.
3.) 17 Apr 2025 22:50:20
I refuse to open their pages. Absolute tripe generally pure click bait. I guess even a broke clock tells the right time twice a day.
12 Apr 2025 14:44:53
Moyes has done a great job since his return, however, the continuing selection of Harrison is more than a bit puzzling. Yes, he has a good work ethic, but his quality on the ball, is simply not premiership standard.
In preference I would even prefer Pattison, not least because his crossing is better, he has more pace, and even his support of his right back, all make him a better pick than Harrison.
{Ed025's Note - Dave has done a fine job PSG but i do wish he was not so pragmatic mate, now is the time to drop the under performers and give others a chance for me..Chermiti, Armstrong,Patto etc, we are easily safe now and we should give these guys a chance to see what they bring..
1.) 12 Apr 2025 15:19:38
Agreed if we ain't going to sign these loan players don't play them and use the lad's that are going to be playing nxt season.
{Ed025's Note - absolutely RON..
2.) 12 Apr 2025 16:03:52
Now is the time to give them some prem experience… though he might wait until the last two home games.
{Ed025's Note - my 3 questions for dithering Dave..
Why are you playing Doucs when a blind man could see hes finished
Are you keeping Harrison? if not why the hell are you playing him?
Why dont you give others a chance now we are safe?
3.) 12 Apr 2025 16:12:20
I've seen some tricky wingers in the u21s, who would be a upgrade on Harrison. Kids have no fear, whereas Harrison looks sh*t scared of the ball or taking a man on.
{Ed025's Note - i have seen kids in infant schools who would be an upgrade on Jack Dentie..
4.) 12 Apr 2025 17:06:59
Those questions have me worried now Ed. I can see Doucs and Harrison staying now.
The only upside might be he’s only playing Harrison whilst McNeil is injured. Now he’s back, we might see Harrison benched.
{Ed025's Note - dont hold your breath BR mate..
5.) 12 Apr 2025 17:30:06
He will wait until we are math safe. It isn't hard to work out, there are potentially huge sums at stake. Take a guess at Moyes remit. Once safe ED etc! will have the answers.
{Ed025's Note - i will hold you to that DMS.. :)

20 Apr 2025 17:37:20
Hope he can be persuaded to give it one last whirl, perhaps with a nice big bonus if we do well in first season at BMD.
15 Apr 2025 12:58:37
A new contract, on reduced term, may not be the player he was, but commited to the club, more than be said for others.
20 Apr 2025 16:21:47
Unless it is just paper talk, the notion of bringing in two w/ ham has beens, on the bases that they did a job for Moyes, is most definitely a backwards step. Please we already have two over 30s right backs, another one at 32, is the wrong direction .
11 Apr 2025 13:33:52
To old, to slow.
18 Mar 2025 02:18:17
I want Delap, bigger, stronger, quick, and proven in the premiership that he knows where the goal is, and in a poor side.
18 Mar 2025 02:12:18
Let's hope he makes it ten.
