  1. A novice manager there with a quality squad is a much better proposition for us than them getting in a top level manager with that squad. Let him have the job.
  2. Live footy was starting to be seen a fair bit more on tv just before sky took it away ... from about 90-92 (largely fuelled by Ingerlunds world cup run IMO) it was definitely on the way up, hence their swoop. For example i remember us beating the mancs 2-0 at Anfield and it meant Leeds won league in 92 - there was a game on ITV pretty much every week then. I don't think it is beyond the realms of reality to think that could have grown to maybe two games a week across free to air tv. Decent summary of timelines of it all happening here: https://www.theguardian.com/media/2003/feb/25/broadcasting3
  3. Nice to see someone got the title!
  4. I know someone posted parts 1 and 2 of the links below in the shitness of modern footy thread - but I think they are such good articles and resonate so strongly in relation to what is wrong with the game that they and the now published final part deserve a thread of own. Really is IMO a brilliant read and really resonates, poses the questions that need asking and offers what I think is a very reasoned 'solution'. The game we love has been hijacked and repackaged into the ugly thing it is today - this series digs into it all in the best way I have read.

  5. Fucking hell. https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-biggest-impact-any-premier-15833856
  6. If we get through i really want them in quarters. They are shite and we'll dick them over two legs - be perfect revenge for last year.
  7. Ta. Was reading bbc text and when goal went in it said 'this time no need for VAR' (obviously after 1st one was referred) Then they expressed surprise it had actually gone to VAR.
  8. Just irritates me that refs don't have to explain/answer in public for their actions yet managers are expected to be able to have to express their opinions in the heat of the moment straight after a game within restrictive rules put down, and then will get fucked by the FA if they decide they have broken these rules when all they have done is be critical of the incompetence that they have to just put up with week in week out that affects games.
  9. Haven't missed Kane at all have they - won every league game so far in his absence and now ahead here - Son has really stepped up for them.
  10. He has been charged for his comments in interview after game - not for speaking to the ref.
  11. Wouldn't put it past them to have timed this perfectly to issue him a touchline ban v the glams. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47233177
  12. This. As much as enjoying see the manc rats get dicked it is slightly less enjoyable than usual seeing it is these cheating, financially doped mercenary shithouses doing it. They are a cancer on the game.
  13. I reckon that lad has raised more and will raise more than moshiri does for the dream arena
  14. I love this bit from Moshiri: Majority shareholder Farhad Moshiri also said the club expect to gain the bulk of the money from the private sector, saying recently: “The private market will give us £350m, a naming rights partner will give us some more and maybe equity capital of £100m.” He's off his frigging rocker. The daft gets who lap it up even more so though.
  15. Feeeeeeewm! https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/everton-fans-fume-marco-silva-15809828
