May 31: With an unnecessary and potentially destructive war of words developing in the media between Walter Smith and Michael Ball's "representatives", ToffeeWeb's Viewpoint warns of the potential explosion of supporter anger should the England defender be driven away from Goodison Park.
May 31: BBC journalist Phil McNulty provides a succinct portrayal of the increasingly bad situation facing Everton Football Club this summer, with a war of words now developing over Michael Ball's contract renegotiations.
May 30: Ian MacDonald is one of the fans who Bill Kenwright actually talks to directly. This candid Season Review contains Ian's analysis of where we are as a club and a squad. Ian then looks forward and makes a plea for positive change in this open letter to the Vice-Chairman.
May 29: Everton have finally given up on persuading Francis Jeffers to stay, and put him on the transfer list as of yesterday. A surprisingly sensible editorial from TeamTalk – of all places – sums up this lack of ambition and failure of vision for the playing side that now bedevils this once-great Club.
May 28 - Gareth Farrelly did it again, scoring a 20-yd screamer too set Bolton on their way back into the Premiership after defeating David Moyes' plucky Preston 3-0.

May 25 - In his Season Review, Julian Cashen pulls no punches in this scathing assessment of Walter Smith's third season at Goodison.

May 9: "This season has been miserable. It has been miserable for every Evertonian. Absolutely horrible. I think even more so because we gave Goodison Park a lick of paint, made 10 or 11 signings over the summer and there was a lot of joy and expectancy around the club, but we have all failed to live up to that. That is the sadness of it. Everton cannot celebrate avoiding relegation. However we can be thankful for it and grateful for it." – Bill Kenwright... "Never Again"???
