Wonder if there is any chance Lacazette could be tempted from Arsenal. It seems Emery favors Aubemeyang(sp) moreso.

The forum is comedy gold. There are probably more Reds than Bloos on there now.

There's so many posts though. Unfortunately I won't be able to stick with it when I get back to work.

In the derby thread last year when it was the exact same thing, I blamed lovren for being idiotic enough to give their player (Lewis?) the chance to go down. That was a pen all day 12 months ago, it was a pen on boxing day. 

I said same thing. When defending you need to be goal side and in a position where you as the defender can see the ball. Delaying,showing the attacker only one direction etc are all part of it too. Getting in a position where you are not goal side,too close so you can't see the ball and being very upright are asking for trouble.

It's 2019 and Everton are still shit.

I wish I had a million quid to put in a suitcase and offer to this helmet - if he could give me one reason why Lacazette would want to switch to a shitty irrelevant club, with a shit manager, a shit ground  (and no realistic prospect of moving) and no chance of winning anything.

Swansea City may play in football's second tier but they are charging parents Premier League prices for children to be mascots.

It costs up to £478 for a match-day mascot "package" at the Championship club, research by BBC Wales found. 

Only three teams in the Premier League charge more, while the experience is free at most of the top clubs. Cardiff City charge £255.

Swansea City said prices were reduced this year following relegation.

Consumer groups have branded the higher prices as "outrageous".

For many youngsters, the chance to walk out onto the pitch with their football heroes is a dream come true.

Indeed many clubs tell parents the package is the "ultimate gift your child will never forget".

Yet while many of the biggest clubs in the country, including Premier League champions Manchester City, do not charge for the opportunity, others are cashing in more than £700 per child.

Most packages include full kit, match tickets, photographs and autographs as well as walking onto the pitch before kick-off.

But a £270 deal at Fulham does not include kit while a £185 package at Bournemouth does not come with a ticket to the game. 

 

 

Martyn James, of consumer website Resolver, said: "It's absolutely outrageous that some richer kids can effectively buy their way to the top of the mascot list. 

"When I was younger, being a mascot was a reward for super loyalty or for having been through a great deal.

• Mascot to wear 'Swansea City legs'

"Charging any money for these packages is unacceptable - and it's pretty unknown too. 

"It makes a mockery of all the things that our national game is supposed to represent."

Supporters on fan forums have slammed the prices as "unfair" and "scandalous".

Swansea City said the "truly once in a lifetime experience" includes four hospitality places, a meal and half-time penalty competition on the pitch.

A spokesman added: "We've reduced prices this year following relegation, from £450 plus VAT to £399 plus VAT for weekend, and £349 plus VAT for weekday matches.

"We also give one space free to charity every match and this was brought in this season."

Mascots at the likes of Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal and Manchester United are picked at random from their junior fan club and are free.

Cardiff City offer the chance for children aged between four and 10 to turn "dream into reality" for £255 and have sold out for many of their most popular home fixtures.

Claire Blake, of Penarth, arranged for her eight-year-old son Cian to be a mascot before the Bluebirds' game against champions Manchester City as a birthday gift in September.

"We were lucky to get such a big game but I'm not sure we would be happy paying the same amount for games against other teams," she said.

"Cian got a kit, signed photos and met Neil Warnock and had a great time, but the seats were poor and it was a bit rushed meeting the players."

Season-ticket holder Tracy Morgan paid for her eight-year-old son Leo to be a mascot.

She said: "It was very expensive but it was worth every penny to see my son's face - and my husband's."

Ryan Moore bought a mascot package as a Christmas gift for his six-year-old son Niall.

He said: "It's free for some big clubs like Liverpool but a money-making scheme at others and there are so many mascots that it dilutes the experience.

"But we were pretty happy with the whole day. Niall loved it - apart from the team being hammered 4-1."

Just watching Sky Sports News and they just said that Everton haven’t won a home match on New Years Day since 1990 when they beat Luton Town, fucking hell.

 

They also have the PL record for most defeats on New Years Day with 9.

I'm not sure it's strictly true it's free for us. I know standard Chartered get an allocation of games as part of their sponsorship deal, so while the kid may not pay, standard Chartered certainly does. I'd feel sure some of the other big sponsors like new balance, bet Victor and maybe even western union would get a set number of games too.

The fume over this article is hilarious.  Mainly comments from supporters of the senior club in the city.

They've changed that article since and it now shows Everton as one of the free teams.

To be fair, that does include the cost of professional counselling afterwards.

Should be free regardless if it for charity.

Everton have two different mascot packages - mascot and Toffee Lady - which are entirely free of charge and for which two places per game are selected at random from season ticket members and members aged between 5-13-years-old. However, in addition Everton have designated two fixtures this season - the home games against Bournemouth and Wolves - as Everton in the Community mascot packages.

Climb down off that high horse Tonto.

[Anubis]

Two games a season they allow purchased mascot packages with the money going to charity.

[niallers]

Are all those empty seats so belonging to mascot packages not taken up,or red shite buying tickets and not going?
