I told them not to buy a Carousel horse but they don't listen to me.

Lol. I thought of Leanov as you can imagine. Will be interesting to read the true answer. Edit: His name is actually 'Leonov' not 'Leanov'.

Where does the mother of a young supporter buy their child or even husband an Everton kit? I appreciate we have an Everton store in Liverpool, but hey ho. Every town has a sports shop. There should be an Everton kit in every one of them.

The Kitbag arrangement has me puzzled. It removes all possibility of impulse purchases. I don't even know where any Kitbag stores are, and certainly wouldn't travel to any just to buy an Everton shirt. After Googling for them, it looks like they are 'Internet' only. Why would we become involved with such a company?

Why is the video reversed? 1st goal - Defenders look half arsed, but keeper is outstanding. 2nd goal - Deflection sends ball over keeper. You can't fake that. 3rd goal - Bounces in net off knee. Definitely legitimate goal. (2-1) 4th goal - Awful defending - Possible fake. (3-1) 5th goal - Lazy defending. Decent goal, but no real celebration by Lyon. Iffy as to whether offside. (4-1) Guy appears to wink. 6th goal - Perfectly weighted pass - good goal. (5-1) 7th goal - Wonderful goal. Can't see how you can fake that. (6-1) 8th goal - Great goal again, but why no pile of players on floor celebrating? (7-1) Verdict: Great goals, but lack of emotion. Bit strange.

Why would somebody be taking pics of the defender entering / exiting a bookies? Isn't it all a bit convenient? To lose 1-0 or 3-1 I could understand, but lose / win 7-1? A bit on the 'extreme' side?

They could probably lend us a few quid. Great shame for Everton it's not on TV was apparently one of the thread headings on their forum.

Haven't you ever had a woman in the boardroom Pete?

MOP = Mother of pearl

Is 11 wrong then Bill?

Have you seen the price of chips in Scouse land? I blame the Germans.

It's not hard to see why a small club would be reluctant to invest then. Fellaini's wages are £3.6mil alone, without other income he receives from image rights etc. All the profit gained from 1 extra place for 5 years. We would have to spend 'huge' to try and overtake the teams above us. It makes more sense to just be content to be in the Prem, and sign 'nobody'. Selling Arteta was the equivalent of winning the league.

What is the money for finishing 7th, 8th, 9th etc? How much would a player cost in transfer fees and wages? Is it worth it, from a business perspective?

Awww

Yep, I dreamt everything. I clearly have an issue separating fantasy and reality. Thanks for pointing that out.

I guess it could, but I watch him lately and don't see the same enthusiuasm. Maybe it's just his long hair and whiskers making him look lazy lol. We were all a bit surprised to see him get called up a week or so ago, but I feel that was on past performances rather than current (why would Jags have gotten called up if it was current?). I like Lawrenson, but on this occasion I feel he is presuming too much.

You deemed it as the right thing to do because you came across as a proper idiot and realised it, and deleted your posts before others saw it. Who do you think you are telling a member to go somewhere else if they don't like the way you are abusing your mod powers? This is not your forum, and you are just a member here like everybody else, regardless as to whether you have a moderator tag. Treat people with respect, and you won't have a problem, rather than acting like a jumped up little muppet, and then panicking when it bites you in the ass. You talk a lot of crap for a guy who thinks he's above everybody else, and the biggest joke is the way you pull people about their spelling, yet spell like a child yourself. You have a lot of growing up to do mate, and if you think members leaving, rather than you lightening up is the answer, then you really do have a strange outlook.

The moderation of this forum is a joke. Mods cause arguments, and when they eventually overstep the mark, they simply 'delete' it, and pretend it didn't happen. It's bullshit. If you press submit, then you leave it for all to see. If you don't think it is right to post something, then don't submit it. Members do not have the facility to delete posts, and have to stand by what they write, so please stop abusing the moderation. If you submit it, it should stay. It's too easy to act like a tit, and then when you see sense, remove it. The secret? Don't act like a tit, or count to 10 before you press submit. It makes a mockery of the forum, and a mockery of the administration. If threads get out of line, issue warnings, or close it, but deleting posts that suit you is nothing short of dictatorship. Stop it. It stinks.

I don't think it would cost 'us' anything. It is possible that the fee is a clause written in the loan contract allowing the club who took him on loan to pay that fee should they wish to sign him at the end of the loan. I could be wrong though.

Nonsense? In the scenario I gave you, who does all the work? Which players do the future statistics mention? Who get's all the credit? Who doesn't get any credit? Oh, btw..... Who received player of the year because of many similar scenarios? If you think it's nonsensical Matt then you are clearly more occupied with a result, rather than the game itself, and that is quite sad.

He drinks in the Dog and Duck. Landlord barred him for a while for having too much to say for himself.
