  2. Without them your film industry would suffer.

  4. Fifty two teams now, Notts County were included in the draw. http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2013-14/sep/premier-league-u21-premier-league-cup-draw-090913.html
  5. He was wanted by Guadeloupe for the CONCACAF Gold Cup in 2011 Tonka. He decided not to play because he wanted the summer break and felt that the Gold Cup would harm his pre-season preparations with Everton.
  6. Fifty one teams will participate in the cup competition. The U21 Premier League is a different competition, that's a league competition that changed its format again this year. The teams are seeded by how well their academy facilities are rated by the Premier League. The Premier League are organising this competition and have invited lower league clubs to be involved. Some clubs have chosen not to enter because they are concentrating on the newly created UEFA Youth League - the teams who qualify for the Champions League groups stage also qualify for the U19 competition.
  7. http://www.premierleague.com/en-gb/news/news/2013-14/sep/premier-league-launches-under-21-premier-league-cup.html Everton have been given a bye to the third round.
  8. Ray Hudson, former Newcastle player from the 70s.
  9. I must have deleted it on my phone :| It is Law Abiding Citizen.
  10. There is a fair amount of Irish people on here too. I'm surprised that there are no Costa Ricans.
  11. I found this blog interesting: http://words.virmalo.com/rebranding-everton/ http://words.virmalo.com/keep-your-head-on-a-swivel/

  13. I'll have to go for Hearts, I won the Cup Winners' Cup with them on Championship Manager. Plus it's where we signed David Weir and Gary Naysmith from. Naysmith is still playing. He looks a lot older now - older than Weir.
  14. He is starting against Moldova for England U21s, it starts on BT Sport 1 in 30mins. It is Gareth Southgate's first match in charge.
  15. Liverpool Echo's Greg O'Keeffe reckons Man City are paying a contribution towards Barry's wages.
  16. It's similar to Inter Milan. I like it. One thing I would change is the tower, I'd remove the lower part of it so that the slope is the base of the tower.
  17. The description from FAI suggested that they use the Quadcopter as part of the training drill to determine tactics and shape of the Ireland national team.
  18. We can't afford to pay £120k a week wages. It's only because there was no loan fee and the sale of players has made money available to cover the costs. Presumably Everton officials would have preferred to be paying a lower amount - otherwise the deal would have been made earlier on the deadline day. Personally, I think that both clubs were haggling to get a good deal for themselves and as it got closer to 11pm, Everton relented. At around 10pm, there were no deals yet done, yet Dave Whelan was on the radio telling everyone that the McCarthy deal was off, adding to the pressure and the Lukaku deal was also done late at night. I mentioned it yesterday, the money brought in from the sale of Fellaini and Anichebe was enough to cover the cost of the transfer fees for Kone, Robles, McCarthy and there was enough left over to pay the wages for one year of Barry and Lukaku. There was also a bit of 'surplus' available to spend in the summer with wages as Neville, Hitzelsperger and Mucha being freed up. Now that Fellaini an Anichebe have been moved on, the total wages of our non-loanee players is likely to be lower than it was last year. I suspect that should Baines get a new contract, his wage increase will come from the wage budget that was previously allocated to Fellaini.
  19. I have no idea what a 'Quadcopter' is, but I want one.
  20. One day after the window closes, he's linked with a January move. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2410485/Manchester-United-boss-David-Moyes-bid-Ander-Herrera-Leighton-Baines-January.html
  21. Yes, the urinal scene was funny.
  22.

  23. How would that make any difference?
  24. He's retired. http://www.businessweek.com/news/2013-09-03/german-midfielder-hitzlsperger-ends-career-sueddeutsche-says
