After the events in football this wk end I feel proud to think that we have 2 of the greatest in DM +BK,Having beat 2 of the richest clubs in theWorld,with meager funds,and to enter the 2nd half of the season with hope and a smile on our faces when all around face uncertain futures ie no job,the sack ,disgrace,administration,no commitment,No Pride in the team they play for,Sureley its time for the banner waving gripers to now to get behind the best duo since B+R

Donovan Brought The Fight

jaybeck — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 21:14:23 +0000

When it was all looking doom and gloom for Everton Landon Donovan arrived to bring the fight and lead Everton towards a positive end of season run. I feel Donovan has once again been world class and I will be sad to see him go next week.

Hopefully a win next weekend will be the perfect send off to our seasons hero

Players returning

11blue — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 23:37:55 +0000

Apparently Jelavic and Coleman are all fit and available for the game on Saturday, while Jags, Osman and Rodwell are not too far away. When you think about it, when we get all of those players back fit and we have a fully fit squad, there will actually be a fair bit of competition for places in the team. Jags will have to fight to regain his place at centre back from the impressive Heitinga and Distin, Rodwell may not get his place back as Gibson has been doing well, and Osman will also have to fight for his place in the team from Drenthe and Pienaar.

Its surprising what a couple of new signings and good results can do, because it wasn't too long ago that us fans struggled to decide who will be the best of a bad bunch up front, and now we have Denis and Jelavic who both offer something different. And don't forget that Vellios and Victor have both made impacts this season when they have came on from the bench. Do you agree that the players mentioned will struggle to get a place in the team when they return?

1'700 tickets for QPR not good enough you now and so do everton that we would sell 3'000 no problem

Michael Ball...

OldGoldenVision — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 23:12:34 +0000

After 60 games he had to pay us £4,000 a game and Rangers had to pay the same!!! Madness!

Tim Cahill: Everton Legend

BlueJayDee — Thu, 16 Feb 2012 15:14:35 +0000

Although a little of the pace in the last 18 months, since his arrival Tim Cahill has become synonymous with Everton FC and our never say die spirit. Over the course of his Everton career he has taken the place of Big Dunc as an Everton Idol that the fans can rally behind in the knowledge that everything would be would be brought onto pitch.

Here's a video I found of all of his goals for Everton... Enjoy

What are everyone's favourites? I love the first one it shows against the R's and the overhead kick against Chelsea

Don't get too excited just yet.

Jay McD — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 16:34:51 +0000

I'm happy with recent results but honestly didn't think man city or Chelsea where playing at there best but great results none the less.

moyes has made some very good additions with little to no money and should start thinking early about what will be possible next season. I'd love to see pienaar and drenthe stay. Straq is making me laugh but I can't help salute his attitude. Even moyes talks tongue in cheek when talking about his ability.

Keep the attack minded tactics and I'll be happy.

I remember how this place was only 2 weeks back.

Anyone know much about this Francisco Santos Da Silva Junior?

Warrington Dan — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 17:20:30 +0000

Just signed a 4 and a half year deal with us.

Pienaar's back! GREAT....

Knoxy2001e — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 05:15:21 +0000

we've missed a touch of creativity since mikel left. lets hope he hasnt forgoten how to play football. he had a fantastic partnership with bainsey before.

"Steven Pienaar has rejoined Everton on loan until the end of the season."

well done BK.

saha to spurs and pienaar back on loan.

a great days work.

I must admit.......

11blue — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 19:01:59 +0000

I for one have been surprised by how many players we have signed this season. After the pre season he had with regards to transfers, I didn't think we would sign anyone at all in the summer. I thought that in January we would sign one or maybe two on loan but that would be it, but it turns out that we have signed 9 players this season! And overall I am quite happy with the buissness we have done this season in the transfer window, even though I still think we need investment.

We can all breath a sigh of relief

Foreign Everton supporter

Alex Neshta — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 06:17:27 +0000

Hello!

I’m an Ukrainian from Ukraine. I have been supporting Everton for a long time. My first acquaintance and my first sympathy for Everton appeared in the early '90s, and since 2007 Everton - the club of my heart.

I’ve a question. How do you feel about foreign Everton fans who are not "Evertonians are born not manufactured".

We are Everton fans from Ukraine, Russia and Belarus; we have community called "USSR-Toffees" - group of Everton fans coming from ex-USSR republics. We have our website (http://www.ussr-toffees.com), forum (http://ussr-toffees.com/forums) and a page on Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/groups/ussr.toffees/).

Thank you

HERE'S HIS VIDEO YES ITS HIM THAT GETS KNOCKED OFF THE BALL AND JUMPS UNDER THE BALL GOING FOR A HEADER IN THE 1ST MINUTE ! SEEMS LIKE HE'S GOT A TURN A PACE OVER THE 1ST FEW YARDS THO !

Good times back for this Great Club

pat74 — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 19:27:04 +0000

Good times back and ahead for our great club, 4 signings in Jan, all of them good in my eyes, even though two of them on loan, and another Midfielder today, Francisco Junior. Welcome to Goodison Francisco.

Jelavic a great striker, great prospect too, hope he shrugs off that injury and gets in the squad soon, hopefully Saturday. Dennis and Nikicia up front, good times.

I have been critical of the board in the past 6 months but I got to say they deserve a lot of credit all round for the deals they have done. Now get David Moyes to sign a longer contract, keep our squad together and move up that table to the top, where we belong.!!!!!!

Whiskeyandspeed84 — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 16:35:09 +0000

I didnt know joao Silva had been recalled... anyone know anything about this? sorry if there's already been a post on that!
On the scoresheet anyway along with with Gueye (2), Coleman, Baxter and Barkley

Redknapps cleared, Capello's quit, will it cost us Moysey?

Knoxy2001e — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 03:11:31 +0000

Will Redknapp be offered the England job?

And will Moysey be offered the Spurs job?

Ticket Applications

WoodsyEFC — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 12:32:28 +0000

Never understood why they do this. For example QPR away is one of those where you have to apply for a ticket, as opposed to just buy it if you meet the criteria (fortunately I've only missed Chelsea away this season, so I'll be good to get one!). But why do they do this application process? It seems like a bit of a mess around to me.

Bless Mick Macarthy.....

sambo applecart — Tue, 14 Feb 2012 00:33:14 +0000

always ok with the press, has a bit of banter with them etc.

Seemed visibly emotional leaving the ground today after his sacking.

I'm not his biggest fan, but, we are all people and we all have hearts whatever our situation is in life, things can get emotional, nobody is an exception! Felt a bit sorry for him really. But, it was coming in all fairness. Too up and down imo,

New Manager...

OldGoldenVision — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 00:29:40 +0000

Well, we've had this discussion on many occasions due to DM's negative tactics, but now it looks like Spurs will make a play for him when Hawwy leaves for the England job.

Who we gonna get peeps?

I'm going with Brendan Rogers - I know this could be discounted as the usual done well with a new team nonsense, but I think he organises them well, plays decent football, and has shown that he has an eye for spotting a bargain - Vorm and Sinclair to name two.

Otherwise I think Martinez would be good. He likes attractive football and we have been bored to tears for long enough.

Phil Neville vs. Chelsea

Lazzer — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 18:56:07 +0000

Anyone else think Capt. Phil had a $hite game? With the exception of one header to clear theh box in front of Howard, he seemed to nearly cost a goal on several scary occasions...

Andy Williams...

OldGoldenVision — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 22:46:06 +0000

I was watchin the match on stream and am sure i heard "i love you baby". Am i imagining it? Have been tryin to fit "oh denis stracquarlursi, dont let me down i pray"...

Villa and Toffees

OldGoldenVision — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 21:00:24 +0000

Are they the same club, just a diffent city? They too are protesting over the board. So many similarities. Glad we havent got big firken eck!

Signed ball

ChicagoSoccer — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 20:40:59 +0000

A ball signed by members of the Everton squad has ended up in my possession. It will be prominently displayed.

A strange comment in the Liverpool Echo!

pk4efc — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 13:59:39 +0000

Was reading "What the Papers Say" and saw this remark about Steven Pienaar in one of the Liverpool Echo reports.
"The 29-year-old might not have been the direct provider for either of Everton’s well-worked goals against Chelsea."

I thought it very strange that for the first goal, Peanuts headed the ball on and then immediately got to it again before smashing it past Cech, but the author of that report seems to have missed this. How much more could he have provided for that first goal?

I certainly agree with the other points about Steven P. though - we look a different team now! I was also mightily impressed with Landon, Denis and Felli (not to mention the rest of the team) and am looking forward to more success in the days ahead. COYB
