News Headlines & Features

Clean sheet for Ruddy in Reserves
27 Feb - After an early fumble, John Ruddy did a fine job in the Everton goal for a very young Reserves / Youth Academy Under-21 side that held their more illustrious counterparts from Birmingham to a creditable 0-0 draw on Monday night.  Victor Anichebe was leading the attack for Everton in the Barclays Premiership Reserve League North encounter but had to come off with an eye injury.

Undone by two very good goals
25 Feb - With four players supspended and stand-in goalie Sander Westerveld debuting, passionate Evertonains will be disappointed to have lost this game.  Everton looked well capable of winning it, playing some good football and creating a number of serious chances before half-time that on another occasion would have sewn things up.  Arteta's free-kick in particular produced a superb save from Given.  But they paid the price in the second half, and had no answer to two well-crafted goals finished off by Noberto Solano, who blatantly shoved Valente out of the way to convert the first and bent home a beautiful second. Match reports by Lyndon Lloyd and Paul Traill.

Move for Poom goes West...
22 Feb - Ex-Liverpool goalkeeper, Sander Westerveld, will tomorrow sign a short term deal, bringing him to Goodison Park. With both Nigel Martyn and Richard Wright out injured, not forgetting Iain Turner about to serve a one match ban, manager David Moyes has been keen to sign an experienced goalkeeper to relieve the pressure placed on John Ruddy. No doubt the signing of Francis Jeffers' old mate will raise one or two Evertonian eyebrows!

Sit Down and Shut Up!
22 Feb - In a powerful and persuasively penned article written in response to the "Hidding in the shadow of Hillsborough" piece we were asked to publicise the other day, Steve Guy blows away many of the dewy-eyed myths surrounding this ill-advised campaign to turn the clock back. He has plenty of memories of life on the terraces, and makes it very clear why he has no wish to see them return. It's prompted some interesting responses from Amamda Matthews, who wrote the original article, and our own occasional commentor, Peter Fearon.

Poom expected this week
21 Feb - Martin Poom is expected to join Everton at some point this week on an emergency one-month loan allowed by the Premier League due to the exceptional circumstances created by injuries to Nigel Martyn and Richard Wright — both of whom will be out of action for some weeks. David Moyes has apparently elected to take advantage of the arrangement rather than trust the young hands of John Ruddy (who plays in goal for the reserves tonight), or Iain Turner — who misses the Newcastle game while he serves a one-match suspension for the unjustified red card he received against Blackburn.

Player of the Month: January
19 Feb - Cast your mind back to the summer during a time of frenzied transfer activity, when it looked as though Leon Osman was not going to have his contract renewed.  He was rescued from a rumoured switch to Portsmouth when David Moyes decided he was worth holding onto.  And how the diminutive midfielder-cum-striker has repaid that faith so far in 2006, turning in some impressive performances and chipping in with vital goals as the Blues' fortunes took a dramatic turn for the better.

Catching up on the deficits
18 Feb - As you would expect from Everton's recent unbeaten run in the league, with six wins in the last seven, this has had a positive effect on the Season Comparison that Steve Flanagan has put together for us.  We still have some way to go to match the home form of last season, but we are almost there with the away form.  And regarding the much talked about decline in attendances, the deficit at away games is three times that at Goodison Park, showing a smaller decline in local support from long-suffering Evertonians, with price increases and season-ticket displacement for corporate facilities probably a factor.

Stadium decision by end of the year
17 Feb - In talking with the local group Downtown Liverpool in Business, Keith Wyness last night promised a "a big move forward on something" by the end of the year, and he effectively ruled out redevelopment of Goodison Park, or sharing a new stadium with Liverpool FC.  And following on from the D&T Top 20 success, he gave fans a new bragging straw to cling to: "We are a different club compared with a year or so ago. We think the bank would probably lend money to us rather than the team across the park."

The Sky TV perception confirmed
15 Feb - After painstaking and detailed research work unequaled anywhere else on the web, our statistician Stephen Flanagan has compilied a unique table of Premiership team performance records under the glaring lights of the Sky TV cameras.  Since football was created by Sky with the formation the Premiership, Evertonians have often felt hard-done-by in terms of unfortunate exposure and poor results before the critical audience of armchair fans across the nation and beyond.  Finally, the facts are made public here on ToffeeWeb for the first time. And they confirm our fears.  Note: this 31kB .pdf file is exclusive copyrighted material. Do not use without express written consent of the author, Stephen Flanagan.

Blues apply for Intertoto option
14 Feb - Everton have kept their European options open by applying for entry to the Intertoto Cup. They will be England's representative in the competition if they finish as the highest applying club outside the regular European qualification places. CEO Keith Wyness explains that the new format of the competition — where the English representative would be required to play just one two-legged tie before entering the second qualifying round of the UEFA Cup — was the biggest motivator.

Everton in new stadium talks
13 Feb - Everton are discussing the possibility of working with Peel Holdings to get a new stadium built. Peel Holdings has recently acquired the Mersey Docks and Harbour Company and all its land holdings, which include a promising site at Switch Island, Maghull, and are to prepare a feasibility study. Since Everton lack the financial resources to fund a new stadium, one possibility being considered is a lease scheme that will allow the club to acquire the stadium over the long term... just don't call it a 'reverse mortgage'!

Ten-Man Blues' Heroic Stand
11 Feb - Iain Turner's home debut turned to disaster after just 8 minutes when, following a mix-up with Alan Stubbs, he was sent off for handling outside the area.  But David Moyes's irrepressible charges went on to not only score but put in a heroic stand and grind out another 1-0 win against all the odds.  James McFadden started up front and should have opened the scoring after 7 minutes but he went for power and only found the bar with the goal gaping.  A minute later Turner was off and young John Ruddy was on but 10 mins before the break, Arteta swung in a free kick and Beattie planted a header past Friedel. Blackburn probed but Ruddy twice denied them while Everton had three "goals" chalked off for infringements as they held firm.  Match Report from Paul Traill

Moyes: manager of the month
10 Feb - The Manager of the Month award David Moyes deservedly won by guiding Everton to a sequence of unbeaten games that stretched through January seems to have already started working its traditional spells a day or two before it was officially announced. Richard Wright's ridiculous accident, and the ensuing humbling by rampant Chelsea have taken some of the shine off the accolade already.

An object lesson in scoring goals
8 Feb - Everton went into their second successive FA Cup replay looking to cause a major upset with victory over runaway Premiership leaders, Chelsea, but it was not to be as three first-half goals sewed this one up with time to spare.  Everton had tried to play some decent fooball but were undone by clinical stikes from Robben and Crespo, and a silly penalty converted by Lampard.  The Toffees stirred breifly in the scond half, Arteta converting a penalty thanks to a Huth handball, but Chelsea waltzed up the other end and Terry emphatically banged in the fourth to underline a vast difference in class which was all but invisible 10 days ago at Goodson Park.

Carsley getting closer to fitness
7 Feb - Lee Carsley was the man among boys this afternoon as Everton Reserves were relegated to playing their home game in front of a handful of people on the touchline at Netherton — current home of the Youth Academy portakabins. It was appropriate in many ways because most of the so-called reserves playing were youngsters from the Academy, with John-Paul Kissock impressing once again. Carsley played just the first half of a game which the lads won through a first-half goal from defender Chritian Seargeant.

The Glass is Half Full
6 Feb - Mark Langley takes a rosily optimistic view of Everton's prospects for the rest of the season, happily dismissing concerns about the players who failed to arrive during the January transfer window and whetting his lips at thought of Andy van der Meyde [who?] whipping crosses in for Duncan Ferguson [uh!!?!] to power home. Yes, I kinda lost faith in the Half-Full scenario at that point... but it's nice to see some people can recognize the achievements of David Moyes and his threadbare squad in getting Everton to the brink of the Premiership Top Ten whan all anyone could do previously was moan "where are the next points coming from?"

Blues' unbelievable form continues with another win
4 Feb - A fortuitous 7th-minute goal by David Weir was enough to extend Everton's terrific unbeaten run to 9 games as City's frustrations ended with Steven Jordan being sent off in the dying minutes. Led by the effervescent Leon Osman, the Blues burst out of the gates and the diminutive midfielder-cum-striker bounced a shot off the crossbar inside 90 seconds. Five minutes later, though, the Blues were ahead. Mikel Arteta swung in a corner, David Weir missed it and when Dunne headed off the line, it ricocheted off Weir and into the net. Darius Vassell and Georgios Samaras both headed wide but the Blues were, on the whole, comfortable to ride out the game and secure another 3 points. Read Paul Traill's Match Report.

Make Yourself Heard
3 Feb - Our webforum has been online for nearly six months and has grown into one of the largest and most active Everton communities on the Internet. Today we're relaunching it, complete with brand spanking new forum software, its own server and all the regulars guaranteed to be there already. Have your say on Everton and discuss anything you have on your mind.

Der ball ist Rund
3 Feb - ON Saturday we have visitors from Manchester, 41 years ago this week since a club from that city played Everton at Goodison Park in the Inter Cities Fairs Cup. The first leg of this third-round tie had been a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford. What happened in the second leg in February 1965? Read this excerpt from Mike Owen's book - Der ball ist Rund: Everton in Europe.

''We're NOT skint,'' says Moyes
2 Feb - In an unprecedented reaction to the insane clamouring of Everton fans who are absolutely convinced they have been lied to by David Moyes and the current Goodison regime, the Everton Manager addresses this important and direct statement to all Evertonians, from the Official Website. "The failure to bring anybody in was certainly not for the lack of trying nor was it due to a lack of funds." Read that slowly and see if you can still call him a liar!

Johnson's right-hand man
2 Feb - To take our minds off current concerns amidst Everton's remarkable 8-match unbeaten run, Clifford Finch has popped up in the media and reminisces about some of the tumultuous happenings when he was a prominent Board member who worked very closely with former Chairman, Peter Johnson. He lets go of some interesting snippets, like the fact that the much-vaunted Kings Dock feasibility study was doomed from the start. Is someone re-writing history for us, yet again?

24 Feb - David Moyes laments the small size of his Everton squad, claiming there are only 12 or 13 outfield players traveling to Newcastle... and then the article goes on to name 14 in the squad of 16. Isn't that why we have Reserves???

Break: good or bad?
19 Feb - We always seem to get this rather meaningless discussion about whether a break in the fixture list is a good thing ("recharguing batteries", as Arteta says here) or a bad thing when you are on a roll ("disrupting momentum"). Guess we'll find out next Saturday!

Reserves keeper may fit the bill
16 Feb - Everton recently signed Iceland's young keeper Thordur Ingason, who gets to run out against Liverpool's second string tonight at Southport. David Moyes may well be looking for him to warm the bench at Newcastle on the 25th as there is no further word on the move to bring in Mart Poom.
