The protesters have been around for years from the days of Catterick over Alex Young being dropped, to the more recent times of media based protests. These are the same protesters that, and it gets passed on through the families, that said keep Everton at Goodison ahead of Kings Dock, it became keep Everton in the City as opposed to Kirkby, n now its revamp Goodison time again. Its the same ones that forced the badge issue, how childish was that, kept talking about traditions, when there wasnt one, the badge has changed over the years of our existance, even Ruperts tower hasn't always been there and indeed our arguably greatest footballing team of all never had a badge 69-70. So one thing we must always remember as fans, "those who don't understand, don't matter "!

Good post Howie! And I definitely agree about the badge issue, Ridiculous!!
I'm tired of all the negativity, pessimism and finger-pointing! Some people just aren't happy unless they are having a moan. You see certain names on here after a defeat or supposed missed transfer throwing insults about and tearing the board, the manager, players etc. apart. then when we win or are doing well those same names disappear only to magically reappear after our next defeat. It's pathetic!

Everton did not miss out on Kings Dock because of protests to stay at Goodison, they missed out due to no finance being in place. 'Ringfenced' money suddenly disappeared and we missed out on having a waterfront ground on an iconic skyline, i'm sure very few protested against that.

never said that, I merely stated that they protested against going to the Docks. Read before you post.

Yes, my bad. Should have read it properly.
Missing out on KD still gets me, even now.
Sorry mate.
