Played footy at the Pitz in Kirkdale last week. There are adverts for Lucozade everywhere with Gerrards face on, some witty blue scribbled on in biro "you fell over, hahahah EFC, #secondintheleague".

 

Laughed at by a team who hasn't won the league since 1987 and only won one trophy since then.

Clicked on that amazon sight to see what it was.

Read the customer reviews they are brilliant.

 

 

my personal highlight would have to be the '05 season when we finished above Liverpool and qualified for the Champions League! We were knocked out in the first round qualifier and never actually got to the competition itself but the defeat to Villarreal is one of my favourite games featured on the DVD ifithadnerbinforcollina.

 

As always though, beating Liverpool is more important than any trophy or european qualification and the DVD includes the 3-0 win and the FA cup win over the reds which makes it worth the price!

 

The 04/05 season was even better to finish 4th above Liverpool, it was great, somehow though they managed to luckily win the Champions League and overshadow us again.

Bringing in Per Kroldrup the following season was a master stroke and if it hadn't been for Collina he would have helped us win the Champions League in 05/06.

 

I think the below comment is from one of us:

 

What a DVD this is, it perfectly encapsulates David Moyes's outstanding 10 years in charge at Everton with all of the excellent production values I've come to expect from an official Everton Football Club DVD.

Quite simply, its a portrayal of the bestest manager in world football in the past decade, a man who has had success upon success during his tenure at Everton. Since coming in 2002 he became the first Everton manager since the 1980s to win the 'Finished above Liverpool' shield in 2005, not to mention his outstanding record of winning four 'beat the RS' cups in 2004, 2006, 2009 and 2010 (the latter against the best opposition manager they had in the last decade, Mr Roy Hodgson with his 35 years experience). But the biggest trophy we won in this glorious decade was in August 2010, a 2-0 win over Everton de Vina del Mar of Chile which brought Merseyside its first ever trophy in a worldwide competition ('The best team in the world called Everton' cup), in fact this win was so dominant that our Chilean bretheren were relegated at the end of their season, such is the devastating affect of the Moyesiah.

 

The DVD also highlights David Moyes' incredible dignity - not once has he ever bemoaned refereeing decisions that went against his team, never accused other players of diving, not once has he ever accused draws of being fixed because the Illuminati didn't want Everton at the top table of European football (or at any of their tables for that matter), but most impressively he has never ever moaned about the lack of financial resources he has had (especially compared to a team not far from here who have spent billions in the last decade) - just imagine if David Moyes was able to spend £6.5m on James Beattie, £5m on Per Kroldrup, £5m on Simon Davies, £5m on Richard Wright, £10m on Diniyar Bilyadentov, £11m on Yakubu, £15m on an LMFAO impersonator - just imagine what we would have won - the FA Cup, the Premiership, the Champions League, the African Cup of Nations, we would have had it all and then some. Just imagine, everybody would have wanted to be us, we'd be like Barcelona but good, but they couldn't be us, after all we are born not manufactured. But credit to Moyes, he's never ever ever bemoaned the lack of money he's had to spend and bemoaned would could have been. Never. Ever.

 

This DVD also brought back memories of how Moyes was able to mould our homegrown young talent from prospect to player, such as:

 

- Victor Anichebe - we used to call him 'The Nigerian Cristiano Ronaldo'. Now we call Cristiano Ronaldo 'The Portuguese Victor Anichebe'.

- Tony Hibbert - I'll be honest, I never rated him before Moyes, but one day watching him I thought 'Dear Lord, has Gary Neville taken a serious beating with the ugly stick? What, that's Tony Hibbert??? Wow. Just wow.'

- Leon Osman - ifithadntbeenfergerrardlampardhargreavesparkerwilsherejonesjenasbarrymilnerbeckhambuttcoleandcarrick he would definitely have been a mainstay in the England midfield this past decade, driving England to many glorious moments in the qualifying phases of international tournaments.

 

Whilst its a darn good DVD there is one area where it could have been better - whenever our dear leader speaks, I feel there should be a power ballad playing in the background to emphasise just how fantastic he is, just think how much powerful our dear leaders words would be with Mariah Carey or Westlife in the background. As the title says, he is the Moyesiah who makes anything seem possible. And he did. And he will continue to do so.

Some classic reviews for the DVD

 

 

This is an absolute must watch for anyone with even a casual interest in football. David Moyes has lead Everton for 10 years and this dvd goes through both moments of glory in fantastic detail. The dvd starts with Moysey welcoming us at his front door and thanking us for "popping by". He shows us in and asks us if we'd "like to hear a little story?" with a cheeky glint in his eye. He takes a big blue book out from under his sunbed, sits in a grand old chair and opens it's large cover to reveal a first chapter titled "the peasant prince meets the people's club".

 

Over the next 3 hours he reads from his book of memories with photographs and videos providing the perfect visuals. There's some brilliant behind the scenes stuff and we gain great insight into the man behind the legend. There's many moving scenes. In one scene David is absolutely ecstatic at getting his match program signed by Sir Alex Ferguson after the Red Devils have just recorded a heavy win against the Toffees. In one traumatic scene he is genuinely upset when he hears that SAF gave Sam Allardyce a bottle of wine after a game but didn't give David one a few weeks earlier. His tearful, drunken ramblings to SAF's voicemail in the early hours of the next morning really show a vulnerable and human side to the master tactician.

 

Of course, no Moysey dvd would be complete without showing what a shrewd eye he's got in the ferociously competetive world of football transfers. We see David steal a march on his rivals as he brings players such as Per Koldrup, Andy Van Der Meyde and Marcus Bent to the club.

 

The highlight of the disc is where David takes us back to his hometown and visits the places he frequented in the days before he became a managerial master. We see the Scottish humour in full effect as every one of his old neighbours pretends to not know who he is or even that he'd ever lived in that street. One prankster even calls the police and complains of a 'perv' wondering around. Brilliant!

 

This is a landmark dvd and is destined to be as far away from the '£3.99 in 2 months' club as a dvd can get. Relive the glories, revisit the successes and have a 3 hour bask in the sunshine that is David Moye's trophy laden, awe inspiring, history rewriting decade in charge of a true footballling powerhouse.

 

 

What a long strange trip it's been, ten years ago we were a nothing club, going nowhere, with no trophies for seven years and known for playing some of the most eye-gougingly awful football the professional game has ever witnessed. Moyes has turned it all around.

 

Extra's include:

Ten in Ten - "Moysey's ten favourite long balls, one for every season in charge. Includes Alan Stubbs landing one in the river at Shrewsbury"

Throw In's We Should've Won - "David debates the worst decision's given against EFC in his time in charge"

The People's Club's People - "Moyes heads to Wales to meet some of Everton's biggest fans to discuss the highs and lows of the past years"

2005, Europe at Our Feet - "Relive one of the most exciting times to be an Everton fan in recent memory, the trip to the ground before the Champions League defeat at home to Villerreal"

 

This DVD is brilliant. There are so many terrific memories from Moyes' 10 years in charge. Unfortunately the DVD doesn't feature any cup final wins, (that's VHS only) but my personal highlight would have to be the '05 season when we finished above Liverpool and qualified for the Champions League! We were knocked out in the first round qualifier and never actually got to the competition itself but the defeat to Villarreal is one of my favourite games featured on the DVD ifithadnerbinforcollina.

 

As always though, beating Liverpool is more important than any trophy or european qualification and the DVD includes the 3-0 win and the FA cup win over the reds which makes it worth the price!

 

 

The 08/09 season was one of the best. Knocking Liverpool out of the Cup, it's just a shame that on the DVD you don't see the goal as it goes to the adverts. Then Everton got to the final and where the FA Cup Winners for a whole 21 minutes, if only it hadn't been for Drogba and Lampard.

And finally the 10/11 season was when Moysie finally brought sexy football back to Everton. Them pink away shirts where hot.

Like the irrepressible eponymous hero in the wonderful Hollywood sporting fairy tale, Jerry Maguire, this DVD had me at "hello."

Typical that they actually did well in the table but pay no attention to it, all about Liverpool

Re: bricking the coaches I know they were away supporters travelling from a Anfield but wasn't that as likely being Everton fans as Liverpool? I thought that was unrelated to the football match and was local gangs?
