Eds, is there anyone at the club with enough interest and seniority to sack dyche?
{Ed002's Note - Timing would now be wrong.}
1.) 24 Aug 2024 17:41:31
Do we lose more games though before they sack him as they eventually will as the fans will make it happen.
2.) 24 Aug 2024 18:31:49
Well we have let in 7 in two games and he still keeps O'Brien on the bench. The combination of Stubborn and Stupid is a bad one.
3.) 24 Aug 2024 18:40:55
He want get sacked until new owners come in, whenever that will be.
4.) 24 Aug 2024 18:42:17
We are only two games in. He did a good job last season and the season before, despite everything. He deserves more time to turn things around and I think he will. We need to not panic.
5.) 24 Aug 2024 20:13:39
Deluded.
6.) 24 Aug 2024 21:14:16
He did an average job because he’s an average manager, who cons supporters by pounding them with sound bites.
7.) 24 Aug 2024 21:24:25
Oh Swinners, please.
8.) 24 Aug 2024 21:52:42
Apparently no cash for players, in which case we need a manager who can change it up a bit, not persevere with the same team. I was all for Dyche but it's time to move on and try something new, but it won't happen until a takeover.
9.) 24 Aug 2024 22:07:00
I know the window is still open but we don't have a relegation candidate squad. We have tactical deficiencies. I concede if we do last day cash in on DCL and Branthwaite without replacing the numbers we will be in relegation shape squad wise. This turkey is inept.
28 Jan 2023 15:03:55
Gordon gone according el bobble.
1.) 28 Jan 2023 17:13:37
Just need to reinvest the money in someone and make sure that it’s signed, sealed and delivered.
2.) 28 Jan 2023 18:11:32
Same elbobble that said we’d signed Danjuma ?
Think I’ll wait to see him in a Newcastle shirt before believe it’s done.
3.) 28 Jan 2023 19:09:55
Pictures of him signing.
4.) 28 Jan 2023 19:26:35
Well he's in one.
5.) 28 Jan 2023 21:30:20
Victor Gyökeres Is best,
6.) 29 Jan 2023 09:09:20
Not covered himself in Glory, so called True Everton, now I understand ambition and understand attractive offers, but there is a right way of doing stuff, IF the reports are true he didn't turn up for a couple of days to do the job he's paid to do!
7.) 29 Jan 2023 11:36:43
Well. Jesus Christ, we've had Newcastle's pants down there haven't we. Bloody hell. Toodle pip Rodwell.
You can tell Eddie howe is a Blue, and he's helped us out there!
21 Aug 2022 21:06:43
Ed25, what ever happened to the striker you thought we were going to sign?
Has it fell through? Or just taking longer than expected?
{Ed025's Note - it’s on hold until the Gordon situation is sorted out Chris..
1.) 22 Aug 2022 08:23:28
What is the Gordon situation though? They seemingly bid early last week and we rejected it and from outside looking in it’s been very very quiet since. Can we expect them to come back with another bid? The issue for us is can we really afford to wait? Can lampard afford to wait? Two big away games before Liverpool and Arsenal? I don’t think he should be sacked but we could easily be looking at 4 losses.
{Ed025's Note - everton are thinking they will be back BT, if they or spurs offer £50m i think he may go mate..
2.) 22 Aug 2022 09:33:55
My main concern is spurs and Chelsea will leave it so late in the window offer 50 mill (which is unfortunately too much to turn down) and it it will be too late for us to get a decent striker in.
3.) 22 Aug 2022 09:49:11
I reckon they will come back this week and it’ll be sorted by the weekend. They cannot afford to leave it too late as we need time to find a replacement. There could be a potential bidding war, which may work in our favours (and Chelsea’s) as I’m reckon they might chuck a couple of players into the mix as well.
4.) 22 Aug 2022 10:02:37
If the club sell Gordon this week any club with any business acumen will immediately bump up the price of any player we want, as we will be desperate. Any PL club that has any sense won't sell to us knowing that our squad will be really weak and would more than likely be a prime candidate for relegation which is worth more to them than the £20M-£30m they may get for a player. We need to keep Gordon this window and get a forward or two in. Be careful what you wish for!
5.) 22 Aug 2022 09:30:25
Ed025. Can you see this Gordon thing dragging out to the end of the window, him staying with us and as a result we end up signing no one else?
{Ed025's Note - knowing us shreds it will probably be a drawn out saga mate. I certainly hope not but it’s very frustrating at the moment..
6.) 22 Aug 2022 09:30:28
Possibly Newcastle too? Feels like there’s a deal to be done with someone and that Frank is resigned to losing him. If we get 3 in, a centre mid and two forwards, I won’t be too disappointed.
7.) 22 Aug 2022 09:31:47
Did frank lampard really say we wasn't looking for another striker until DCL got injured? If true I find it astonishing.
8.) 22 Aug 2022 10:26:27
Nothing to worry about with Chelsea and spurs leaving it late. Just need to give them a deadline or no sale. Don't have to sell him. Just shot Cannon up front. He's scoring goals. Looks a little live wire. Rather have him than another teams cast off.
9.) 22 Aug 2022 11:26:37
Would definitely be worth giving Cannon a run out in the cup game just to see if he is good enough. We could always sub Rondon on if he's not.
10.) 22 Aug 2022 11:44:50
Any easy solution to this would be to not announce the AG deal until we have found a replacement and agreed on a fee.
Once they are in, then announce the Gordon deal . but after all, this is Everton we are talking about.
11.) 22 Aug 2022 12:00:05
We should ask for pulisic as part of the deal on loan as would have Gordon’s replacement, 12 months to replace long term and the money for a striker.
Appreciate he may want champions league and should be there but surely game time is the main driver with the World Cup coming up?
23 May 2022 17:10:48
Apparently we've offered 90k a week for Tarkowski on a free. We've really not learnt our lesson have we.
1.) 23 May 2022 17:51:50
Yeah bit steep them wages fc if true mate but would be good edition if he joined am hoping maybe mina would be going out like before we consider getting players.
2.) 23 May 2022 18:35:30
40k increase on what he is on at the movement I don't think so, good player but not worth 90K per week. Outs before Ins as we need to address out finances big time. If we could get rid of Mina and Gomes Gbamin and Allan then with the 5 outgoings and the unlikelihood of signing either loanee's our wage bill will be significantly reduced. That may give us a bit of leeway to sign one or two players and put a chunk towards the financial issue we have. Speculation of course but with the club being is such a financial mess I'm not getting my hope up for a mass overhaul of players even if we have to sell all our major assets.
3.) 23 May 2022 19:06:35
If true then do agree £90k per week does seem steep.
However is on a free so would imagine that’s been factored into that figure.
Also Tosun a player who has hardly played but has just left so that’s £80k per week off wage bill.
So for an extra £10k per week we’d be getting a player in a position we need cover for, who’s played in the league and would improve the squad.
Obviously all speculation and no idea if true, but if it was it wouldn’t seem the worst deal.
However not sure how it fits in with current profit and sustainability situation.
4.) 23 May 2022 22:47:44
He is on 50K per week now, is 29 and only 6 feet 1 inches tall and was part of a relegated team that let in 53 goals. We should be able to do better and build for the future, not replace what we have with the same or marginally better players at elevated salaries. Not sure what our scouts and DOF do, is Burnley as far as they get?
5.) 23 May 2022 23:57:58
Agree Mike we should be able to do better, however we haven’t previously and now are restricted on how much we can spend due to previous errors.
All speculation regards Tarkowski however:
He’s a free transfer so I’d imagine wages would be increased to include a signing on bonus, as I’d imagine it would look better on our books if that was in wages over period of contract rather than a lump sum at starts.
Also yes he was part of a team that got relegated. He conceded 51 goals, however we conceded 58 goals.
He was also the one centreback who played virtually every game but due to injuries to team mates (Lawton and Mee) rarely had a solid pairing.
Is he a top signing - no.
Is he better than we have - probably
Is he a leader on the pitch - yes
Is he a good stop gap until we get more financially secure - yes.
6.) 24 May 2022 06:35:31
Today’s papers say £120k a week.
7.) 24 May 2022 08:18:51
What are fans feelings towards selling Mina and using Keane Holgate Godfrey Braithwaite and Welch and i get we have been poor defensively this season but if we bring Anthony Barry in that would be an amazing bit of business as he is the reason Chelsea sorted their defence out.
8.) 24 May 2022 09:01:07
Money aside is Tarkowski any better than what we already have? surely not another bargain basement signing from a relegated side!
Surely we need to look for players that have experience the other end of the league with a winning mentality!
9.) 24 May 2022 09:23:53
wakka57 we can't afford experienced players playing in the top 6 and yes I would sell mina and go with what we have and maybe look to a loan on reasonable wage.
10.) 24 May 2022 10:28:35
sa90 surely we have squandered the money by paying overinflated prices and ridiculous wages to average players over the last few years, this is why we can no longer afford them.
Mina is our best CB but constantly injured, Holgate is not up to it and Godfrey only developed as a stand in right back but I do not see him challenging as a CB.
Look at Tomori that went to Milan from Chelsea he was less money than Mina I believe young and developing.
11.) 24 May 2022 11:06:57
Tarkowski would be an alright signing if we were clearing out the defence and managed to get rid of Mina, Keane and Holgate whilst paying Tarkowski the same wages he is on or marginally more. Loan Welch out, Branthwaite, Godfrey, Tarkowski and try and get a solid centre crack which would be difficult under our finance difficulties. Another way to look at it may be getting Branthwaite cover if we could get him loaned out. Once again though, high wages and a long contract should be a huge no no. We need to clear players out first though.
12.) 24 May 2022 11:48:43
wakka57 I agree with what you have said, I just don't think we have the finances to get another highly paid CB that costs a fair amount of cash. If we sell both Keane and Holgate as well as Mina then that's a different conversation.
13.) 24 May 2022 12:13:12
What’s happened to Lewis Gibson the up and coming centreback we signed from Newcastle for a fee that could rise to £6m!
Would keep Holgate, branthwaite and Godfrey and add an experienced player to those 3. If that’s Tarkowski then think that would be decent.
If we can move mina and Keane on to raise some money and clear some wages that would also be ok.
14.) 24 May 2022 17:06:25
Holgate was performing better towards end of the season and a goal threat. Keep Holgate, Godfrey, Branthwaite. Sell Mina (injured) and possibly Keane if bringing in Tarkowski.
15.) 24 May 2022 19:22:16
One day we'll learn but I'm not holding out much hope. They said after the Wimbledon game "never again" its happened twice since. C'mon Everton, get it right!
16.) 24 May 2022 20:07:53
GD, Gibson was on loan at Sheff We'd last season. His season was blighted by injuries so it doesn't tell us much really.
17.) 24 May 2022 22:15:28
Cheers BP was unaware of that.
However with all the fanfare made about us signing him as he was the next up and coming defender surprised he’s not getting a mention as being in contention next season.
18.) 25 May 2022 14:11:26
Tarkowski is good, but not worth those wages. Hopefully the rumour that Villa offered him way more than us is true.
A Wednesday fan I know said Gibson looked good on the rare occasion he left the treatment room, but did poorly at Reading the year before.
05 Jan 2022 22:15:17
Newcastle offered 22.5mil plus longstaff for digne according to SSN.
1.) 05 Jan 2022 22:26:38
According to Fabrizio Romano there’s no chance he’s going to Newcastle.
Apparently will go this window and probably to a premier league team.
He’s usually very good with his info.
2.) 05 Jan 2022 22:34:45
Yeah he is Dan. The fact a player would be coming in as well makes the news look less likely as well but SSN don't usually report things that have no basis.
You never know though they might just be reporting it to get people making bets on sky betting.
3.) 05 Jan 2022 22:44:30
Could be right regards betting angle Chris.
Also by them saying Longstaff involved - a player Rafa previously interested in - makes it seem a bit more believable.
Could all be genuine - but if player doesn’t want move highly unlikely would happen
Will be interesting to see what the other supposed interested clubs come up with as an offer of the Newcastle one is genuine.
4.) 05 Jan 2022 22:45:32
Think I’d probably take that to be honest.
5.) 05 Jan 2022 22:56:10
Swap deals aren’t common so I’d be surprised if it happened. The problem is every man and his dog are linked with Newcastle at the moment - bit like us for the last few seasons as people knew there was money to spend.
6.) 05 Jan 2022 23:23:26
An hour later and now SSN reporting we made an offer for Longstaff ?
Got to love transfer season, nobody really knows what transfers will or won’t happen.
7.) 05 Jan 2022 23:44:40
Is longstaff even any good?
8.) 06 Jan 2022 00:08:02
No but neither is what we have.
9.) 06 Jan 2022 00:11:51
No idea BD but think Rafa rates him from his time at Newcastle.
Not sure how we’re going to recruit any more players though without any other outgoings as sure Ed002 previously said only had space for 1 more player.
So with 2 signed and Digne on his way doesn’t look like room for anyone else unless we move others on.
Any of the Ed’s know if we have any other potential sales lined up?
{Ed002's Note - Everton has a bunch of players available and contracts running out. Something can be done with Tosun this month but Everton will need to accept whatever Besiktas off. Allan would be available this month if fit but the club may find it difficult to find a buyer, so it seems unlikely. Delph might be available this month but it would depend on an addition in all probabilty.}
10.) 06 Jan 2022 09:38:43
Longstaff is a very strong midfielder, an improvement on what we have at Everton.
11.) 06 Jan 2022 13:41:55
My Newcastle mate raves about Longstaff and says he would be gutted to lose him
There are reports we have bid for him but it’s not linked to any deal with Digne
Also a few rumours about Vecino who’s contract is coming to an end in the summer not sure if this is more to do with old links being resurrected.
12.) 06 Jan 2022 17:39:08
Take Longstaff all day long when you see some of ours.
13.) 07 Jan 2022 07:29:43
I'd be shocked if Digne ends up at Newcastle. I'm still hoping he might stay, but seems unlikely, he's not had the best couple of seasons but then again, Everton haven't been great either.
{Ed025's Note - i hope he leaves tomtom, it will free up money to buy someone who actually wants to be here mate..
14.) 07 Jan 2022 11:04:36
Yeh I see your point, but I like the guy, does he want to leave or is it just a clash of personalities with Rafa? If he doesn't want to play for us I agree we should sell ASAP.
15.) 07 Jan 2022 13:18:37
Longstaff would be a replacement for Allan, who hasn't got the energy required for the Premiership.

Genuine question here. Why did we spend all that money on O'Brien?
1.) 05 Oct 2024 20:10:13
Dyche is a dick. Gone when new owners come in, we just have to cobble points till hopefully ebd of Nov.
21 Sep 2024 17:02:26
Out of everything wrong about Everton, and let's me serious, there's a lot, Sean dyche is absolutely head and shoulders the worst thing about our club.
I cannot wait for the guy to be shown the door. Sean Dyche get out of our club.
1.) 21 Sep 2024 17:47:51
Again, I'm with you FatChris. He's got to go. Fast.
2.) 22 Sep 2024 01:38:21
Spot on Chris. he is so negative and clueless it's almost laughable.
Yes we'd all love a top manager to take us back to where we belong but we need to steady the ship first. Moyes is a massive improvement on Dyche and I'd get him in today.
3.) 22 Sep 2024 22:36:03
Had enough of bringing managers in to steady the ship. Need a manager who is going to take us forward and allow these players to play football. Also one that has more than one tactic would help.
17 Sep 2024 21:53:53
I'll keep saying it. Dyche out.
31 Aug 2024 11:07:40
All in all this has got to have been one of the best windows in a long time. Got rid of the dross in holgate gomes etc, managed to keep hold of who we needed to (Pickford, branthwaitte) and picked up 3 forward players who can hopefully perform. And I think we came out with a Net positive figure again.
We have enough CMs now to play with a flat 3 in midfield so that will hopefully free the wingers up to get closer to the striker. Assuming dyche will let them play of course.
A RB would have been good but hopefully that opens the door for Dixon to get a lot of game time.
Thanks to the Eds for managing us lot through another window, you all do a great job on here.
1.) 31 Aug 2024 11:20:31
A rb and lb would have made it perfect.
Got a feeling Chermitti night play out wide when fit.
All in all a good window though.
2.) 31 Aug 2024 11:25:10
Read somewhere we are paying 2/ 3rds of Holgate's wages, not sure if this is true but seems high to me. Anyone know anything differen?
17 Aug 2024 17:11:25
Embarrassing loss. All down to dyche that imo. And the lack of getting a RB in, not that we've need one for like 6 seasons now. No subs until we were 2 nil down.
Keane and young not good enough. Zero flair up front. Dom abysmal. Thought his stupid dive summed up our performance pretty well.
I'll lose interest in football if I have to put up with another season of this. Just felt as if the manager got nothing right today. I know it's early but with Moyes out of contract I can see dyche been shown the door. But saying that, do we have anyone incharge that can sack him?
1.) 17 Aug 2024 18:29:38
Pretty much sums it up, Chris.
2.) 17 Aug 2024 19:06:39
Completely agree with the post Chris. But we mustn’t be surprised at this. He’s not a winner, his tactics are negative as if every team is better than us. We just can’t go into every game with that mentality
Moyes is not the answer but he is an improvement.
3.) 17 Aug 2024 20:24:20
What is the point of spending millions on players and then leaving them out for Keane and Young?
I reckon that Sean will move to the England job and Moyes will walk back into the hallowed halls of the Grand Old Lady. I'm not a Moyes fan but I suspect he would do so much better with what we have.
4.) 17 Aug 2024 23:10:57
Because the new signings aren't ready for the premier league apparently according to dickhead dyche. Wtf.
20 Sep 2024 19:33:09
Haha nick mate. Literally said I'm not saying Moyes is the answer. But the general jist of what I'm saying is right now I'd love to get not much above 10th.
20 Sep 2024 15:32:54
I never want dyche to set foot here again GB. I know a lot don't like Moyes for personal reasons but I would prefer him to dyche. And before everyone jumps on my back I'm not saying Moyes is the answer, I'm saying dyche is even less of the answer.
20 Sep 2024 07:41:16
Moyes is no Messiah but he is certainly better than dyche. I don't get all the moyes hate. I don't pretend to know who all the current up and coming managers are but we've had a few of them over the past decade and it's not turned out particularly well.
10 Sep 2024 12:13:06
There is absolutely no way we can expect our next manager to be getting top 6 finishes. I think the best we can hope for over the next decade is top half and reducing the debt.
31 Aug 2024 12:34:43
I know there will be mixed feelings, but I'm a little disappointed Dom hasn't gone with Broja coming in. I think Dom's commitment to the club is getting less and less. Hopefully a new striker will make him play for his place so he can advertise himself to a new club for next season. I just wish we had taken some money for him when we had the chance.
23 Sep 2024 19:29:19
As if people have genuinely voted yes to Southgate hahahaha.
21 Sep 2024 18:17:36
You're bang on mate. And it will keep on happening AGAIN and AGAIN.
21 Sep 2024 18:16:11
When he took Lindstrom and ndiye off we had nothing in attack. Dom looked shattered. We just invited pressure from a team that offered nothing whilst we had possession and outballs. McNeil should not be playing in the wing. Harrison should not be playing at all.
Once again Dyches abysmal subs have lost us points.
20 Sep 2024 19:38:58
He has to come out and say that sort of stuff. Not as if he's gona come out and say he hates dyche, his tactics, player choices and won't play the players he has brought in who would do a better job. Majority of what they spout to the press is all front.
Personally I reckon they must butt heads dyche wants to play the same old players, thelwell brings in new attacking players and dyche is reluctant to play them because they don't fit his style. But my opinion is as worthless as what they say to the rags.
01 Sep 2024 08:48:10
I can't believe there are some that want to keep him. The subs issue has been going on since he has been here. The coward has not got the balls to make decisions and it's lost us points since he has been here. It was just so much more obvious yesterday but it's just more of the same. And it will continue to be an issue until he is finally given the boot. The guy is either incompetent or a coward but most likely a combination of the 2.
