TBH its was sort of a similar story mate. goals flying in at times. folwer got 28 league goals in 1995/96 and 36 in total.... but we are 11 points off utd... we drew more games bascially. that was the year of kevin keegan rant i think. TBH we were close but never really "close" to utd as we just lacked that bit of steel in the side. Story of that period is really same as now. one league cup to show for all the effort.

Wasting our time. If he's any good he'll be off to Barca or Real Madrid as soon as he can. Let them develop their own players!
Was in general a less competitive era though too. No big money Chelsea or City stealing all the best players from the footballing sides. Don't be silly, he can't count that high.
Newcastle are interested in a move for Daniel Sturridge, according to the Chronicle, but face an uphill battle to land the Liverpool man because of his high wages. The Magpies are looking to land a striker this month as Rafa Benitez aims to bolster his squad. Aleksandar Mitrovic is looking likely to leave and Spanish boss Benitez is keen to recruit more firepower. However, according to a report from the Chronicle, Newcastle are unlikely to complete a deal for Sturridge because of his wage demands. At this moment in time, the England international is said to be earning £120,000 per week at Anfield, which is simply out of Newcastle’s reach.
Not really, but the point he's making should have been made by Everton themselves, the drop in price from 6 months ago stinks, but Joe shouldn't use his position as mayor to call the police over it, he's a blue and should have gone through EFC first for answers.
I don't really understand what he's moaning about tbh. With only 6mths left on his contract, the fee was always going to vastly reduce. I'd say they were lucky to get as much as they did!
