  • I like the idea of the stadium being part of the drive for greater income vis-a-vis for PSR etc. This might be a naive question, \"What sort of profit do these non-football events make per day?\"...

  • It’s going the other way since the introduction of VAR, now though Andrew. My reasoning is that if the very, very, very slight infringement that made them go to the television screen the other night inside The Azteca, had happened anywhere else on the pitch, then depending on the referee, there is a chance that players could have been booked for protesting against such a soft foul. All subjective, all different opinions but another thing I find nauseating nowadays is how players are getting sent off for mistiming a tackle, or for being physically aggressive. I think anyone who has played the game knows the difference between someone who is being very physical, or someone who is being sly, and that’s why I agreed with Trump, or his ghostwriter, when he queried why people just constantly accept poor decisions. He never elaborated as to ask why the referee doesn’t have to consistently keep giving his reasons for giving certain decisions, (consistently having to explain themselves...

  • Moyes has all the experience you need in a manager but the problem is that you cannot teach an old dog new tricks.rnrnHe will keep the squad ticking over but doesn\'t have the ability rnto change tactics for the better.rnrnI doubt that even if Everton had the riches of say Man.City or RS that Moyes could build a successful squad.rnrnThere is a lot of talent at his disposal but getting the best out of them is not what he is good at.rnrnPlaying a conservative game on the side of caution is all to prevalent under Moyes. He develops his players to do a lot of fetching and carrying but they lose possession far too easily especially when it reaches the vital area.rnrnWe hope to see more striking power next season and if not we will end up the same as last season....
    Tom Bowers in Hackney and George signings show young players still want to play for Moyes
  • Mick@76rnTotally agree Mick, but isn\'t that exactly what Martinez did in the build up to the disallowed goal? And what\'s with this shite I read on the BBC website, it was a foul anywhere else on the pitch, but not in the penalty box!!!! A foul is a foul... doesn\'t matter where it happens....

  • If Moyes were the Egypt manager and asked what he feels after losing to Argentina: \"If you had told me before the World Cup that we would be 2-0 up against the world champions with 11 minutes to play in the Round of 16, I would have shook your hand and said \'Thank you very much\'!\"...
