As you know I am no fan of Jose, but that would be a very harsh punishment for losing two games. Especially if the whole squad was involved, he would never be able to fart quietly in church ever again.
Fergie joined in the Mourinho fingers game, he showed how many Big Cups he won compared to Bob Paisley, the player with him thought he was playing Rock-Paper-Scissors and joined in. please log in to view this image
Unless Everton won something when we weren't looking. Using your example, Biscan was playing for us when he won his CL medal [and the other three]. Silva gets the best out of Williams by sending him to Stoke. Klopp sees Lovren as playing a part in our team [what we think has no impact on that] and so far he's been part of 3 finals and two top 4 finishes. I'll take that 'problem' every time .
Real shame we don't play Utd and Arsenal for months. They will probably have sorted themselves out by then.
On last nights game the moment Spurs scored ManU seemed to go to pieces . Also their original set up just seemed bizarre to me. Not complaining mind.
Shanks left his legacy on the pitch. Moore’s and co failed to see the potential business and failed off the pitch. Edwards saw the potential for Utd and delivered big time. He was aided by the success that Fergy had on the pitch and yes, Fergy did bring a host of youth players through and that drove his success. Edwards is responsible for Utd having so much financial clout and later the glazers and for sure, Fergy played his part by delivering success on the pitch. But when he left, he left the team aging, without youth development and in need of huge investment and with no clear succession planning. I won’t argue that his success contributed but without Edwards they would not be the financial giant that they are now All I’m saying is that on the playing side, Ferguson left nothing when he left and they’re still suffering now. He did not leave a financial giant as a legacy, Edwards did that - that’s why he’a lifelong honarary president.
LFC put two proposals to the City council(to hold other sporting events and music concerts at Anfield), they've just refused permission on the first and are expected to refuse the music events. FSG had offers to hold Rugby League matches at Anfield as an alternative to Old Trafford, they also talked about bringing boxing and NFL to the ground, that extra revenue stream has disappeared. The music concert thing would have been another source of income. I understand our ground is surrounded by residential property and the concerns of the residents, the council gave permission for Bellew's fight at Goodison and had no objection. Pity really, the local businesses would have been given a boost and the extra revenue to the city would have been welcome at a time of cuts to essential services. Wasn't that the mandate the Mayor used to justify the Everton loan?, money in the city's coffers?
Agree with you on Moores. He really really did kill the club. While moores was messing around half hearted Utd built old trafford from a 44,000 stadium post the Taylor report (1991) to 68k in 2000 and in 2006 it got to what is in effect a 75k stadium. Moores on the other hand whinged and moaned about 12mil for the then centenary stand. he then was forced to do the kop end by taylor and manged twice to **** up the anfield road end to leave the disaster we see today. So the contrast for me is Stark between moores and parry and Edwards at utd. YOu are absolutely correct to highlight this. I think there are legendary old school names like robinson and and smith who were the men at anfield but they were old school. I still wonder and have to wonder now looking at the anfield site..... my god FSG got it WRONG with the main stand. (this is controversial now) If you look what our london friends have done with spurs. Imagine what could be done with the anfield site if someone had the ambition to move the pitch even a bit to make the kop accessible as a stand for expansion and enable a 75k stadium. The main stand no in effect define anfield. It is magnificent. Truly it is. But it has left the tougher work on the anfield road alone so that stand must bear the burden of all of the enabling works on its own. The corners will never be filled in. the centenary stand is effectively locked as it's rake and original underpinnings define its capacity and the kop is locked solid by the walton breck road Just perhaps a bit of foresight could have drive the move of the pitch and use that main stand to make the anfield road end more affordable. Ah well. If LFC ever get to 61k capacity i'll be a little surprised. Frankly i think the time is gone unless the pound soars in value to make the cost less than one decent player
theres no coincidence that a blue nose is in the mayors office and concerts at his blue elephant at the docks is his dream. He will block EVERYTHING until he is finally ****ed out of office for his bluenose dream of wasting taxpayers money
No, his mandate was that Chelsea robbed £20m off Everton for Barkley and if the bizzies weren't going to arrest Abramovich then he'd have to compensate them with taxpayer funds
Considering the club held a special fun, family event a few weeks ago for 5,000 local residents as a thank you for their support and understanding with the additional fixtures at Anfield last season, it looks quite likely that the locals weren't the biggest protestors. Surely the club would have already sounded them out before the proposals went in.
Good point, the club rivalry came into play when the new stadium in Stanley Park was mooted, the local Evertonian councillors and residents were where the main objections were found. Coincidence?

Vardy and Cahill bin off england. They claim it is not retire but "step away" but all that means is they are sick of being bench warmers.
