As Everton prepare to do battle with Steve Kean’s resurgent Blackburn Rovers on Saturday, I thought I’d take a trip through the archives to revisit the 11 matches the two clubs have contested against one another at Goodison Park, whilst David Moyes has been Blues boss.
 
It is probably a fair assumption to make that Evertonians haven’t always looked forward to...

WHERE THE MONEY GOES

I spent almost two hours before the Swansea game with representatives of the Shareholders' Association answering questions on the Accounts. I spent time at the fans' forum just before Christmas talking through our numbers. I have looked back through my blogs and see how we've explained on many occasions our finances, our debt levels and our...

First a full England International cap for Jack Rodwell, which can only do his confidence the power of good and hopefully see him progress more rapidly with Everton, and now the news that Marouane Fellaini has put pen to...

The pontificating of the Match of the Day 2 panel was particularly sanctimonious on that Sunday evening in April 2009 as Marouane Fellaini was hung, drawn and quartered with the aid of an incendiary video montage purportedly highlighting his dangerous use of the elbow.
