  1. You don't get much more Scottish than being born and raised in Glasgow. :dont know: To even consider calling him Irish because of a technicality is absurd.
  2. He is Scottish. :dont know: You were wrong. Feel free to commence with the 50 press ups and we might forgive you.
  3. and 4 points behind our rivals after 2 games lol
  4. I've seen this about, but it doesn't show Moyes saying it.
  5. Oviedo is more than capable of playing anywhere on the pitch. He doesn't have to be a swap for Baines.
  6. So, after the first 2 games, and 2 opponents we should be beating, we have 2 points. What are your thoughts so far? For me, I'm not happy with Mirallas tucked away on the right side, and think he should try the left side for a bit. Oviedo looked great in pre season, yet not so much as a sniff, and I think he could have been given a run out today at some point. Kone has shown nothing so far to suggest he should be keeping Anichebe out of the side, and he is another who could have made an impact. Is he injured? I'd describe my thoughts after 2 games as frustrated. How about you?
  7. Lol, maybe like I incorporated it in the above pics ?
  8. Can't you tell the dirty git to pull out for 2 minutes while you offer us 'your' opinion?
  9. He is Scottish you daft apeth. He plays for the Rep because of family connections. One of those silly rules in football.
  10. Now that's more like it. If folk don't give feedback, you don't get further inspiration and it all goes flat. I did a lot of research recently into our history, and it's only my opinion, but Kelly's design of the badge had zilch to do with our club. We have never played in Everton in our lives, so not really sure why we were named as such, but to then associate further with the village is a bit bemusing. Meanwhile, we have a big church on our corner that gets ignored, as does anything else from Walton, such as the old zoo for example. My version of the tower was intended to appease both fans and club, like a half way measure. It would be easy to rule it out altogether. It's important to remember that artwork is a bit like a caricature in that you have to look at something and decide what is a defining feature. You can't put a photograph inside a shield, as although it is exact, it just doesn't work. I thought the tower the club used was the best tower so far, and came to this conclusion after designing different ones myself, only to never be quite happy about them. So I decided to use the silhouette of St Lukes church, and sit the tower inside, so it then had a nod to both. With the laurels, I figured they just didn't work in terms of reproduction, so I used 9 stars, to represent 9 titles, and formed them into the shape of a laurel, to give a little nod to both our achievements and our previous badges. You can see it on one of the side panels. To ignore such a famous river as the Mersey, is just asking for Liverpool to claim it, so why not claim it first? Colours, crosses, laurels etc, are all interchangeable. What I tried to do was find something that worked. The badges above with laurels etc may look cute, but they don't work. As soon as the logo goes onto something small, all detail is lost, hence why I've kept things bold and without effects in most. The blue and white was initially also a nod to our first kit, not just the Mersey, so it was 2 birds with one stone etc. The ribbon across the tower was a way to get the old features back into a badge, and still make it work commercially. It's not the silly band that we've had on previous badges. For example: I look at it more of a salt and pepper pot opportunity than a helter skelter etc.
  11. I meant the font in the related post at #5. Is that post showing as a small font on your screen?
  12. Is the font size small for you too? When it happens, it can't be resized, which makes me think it's a bug.
  13. When you get up to the 10m mark, you can buy a lot of midfielders. I'm not sure Everton need to spend that much on a low profile Scotsman playing for Wigan in the Championship. Moyes has proved we can get good players cheaply. Martinez needs to do the same.
  14. JD sports are closing down a lot of stores in the North West.
  15. So I spend a week working on them and everybody treats me like I'm invisible? Gee thanks.
  16. BTW - is there a bug on the forum somewhere. I get those small letters a lot.
  17. I've read there are a few customs regarding clothing, so not sure if I'll get away with my man-kini.
