The month of January is a strange one at the best of times, but if you had said to me it would start with a Tim Howard goal and finish with a win over the league leaders and two new signings, I probably wouldn't have been alone in not believing you!

The win at West Brom on New Year’s Day was...

On Sunday 27th November, I was sitting on my bed listening to talkSPORT, when at around 12.20pm, they broke off from their show to say that the Football Association of Wales had just released a statement saying that national team manager Gary Speed had been found dead at home.

It was one of those truly surreal moments where everything seemed...

As I sit down to write this, it is November 8. That date will always make me smile as it is the date of one of my favourite experiences as an Evertonian. Rewind four years and it takes us back to Nurnberg...

Any Evertonian who was there will know what I’m on about. It was a truly incredible experience and something...

I had a nice break from Everton over the summer. I...

As we are now in July it's time to think about football again!

I’ll be honest, I’ve enjoyed the break of not having to order tickets and sort various other things out. Finding things to do has not been a problem either, as later today I’m off to see Foo Fighters and Biffy Clyro while enjoying a relaxing weekend at...

So that's it then, it’s all over and done with for the season. What started full of optimism and a 1-0 defeat last August finishes with a 1-0 win and more optimism nine months later!

It's been a strange old campaign, but one that has perfectly summed us up over the past couple of years. Another slow start and an excellent...
