Thank you for your courage Dawn
Don't count me in on this. Irrespective of what he's done or not done, confronting a 76 year-old man is not the way to sort our problems out. Lousy behaviour imho.
Demarai Gray's composure, concentration, and perfect delivery for THE most vital free kick of last season doesn't get enough credit. The release of tension is palpable in his solitary collapse into the Goodison turf. 💙

opened with an Anti-Semitism slur spread about Jeremy Corbyn. It's just normalised 'funny' behaviour.
Arl Arse shout I know, but in the 80s instead of constantly referring to Alan Harper & Kevin Richardson as being "not good enough for the First Eleven", they were seen as vital cogs in our success. Can we encourage taking the same view of Tom Davies please?
Demarai Gray, isolated from the piley-on pack, falling to the ground in relief, having delivered the most crucial cross of the season, deserves huge credit, as does Lampard for the substitution.

I honestly do think the endless “We’re going down” shouts is one of the worst traits to develop in our fanbase. The copycat defeatism is appalling. There were things to build on there.
We are living in a parallel universe. Imagine if Liverpool were unjustly prevented from claiming their title and Everton fans perpetually waved a 'Corona 2020' flag in the Gwladys Street.
I used to shudder with embarrassment when idiots shouted abuse through the railings at Kenwright. But it's nothing compared to the people who tweet abuse directly to Koeman. Classless.
For his own mental health I hope Mason Holgate doesn’t read Twitter. Some right little shit’ouses on here. Some people just never get out of the playground.
ManUsplaining: a condescending, self-promoting, explanation of football food chain dynamics by a privileged ‘elite’ club, typically to a ‘smaller’ or even ‘medium-sized’ club, and often reinforced by sycophantic client journalists.

Just a thought on the South Stand moans.
The gap in the seats to accommodate the Safe Standing sight lines/concourse access could be a perfect spot for permanent blue banners helping the illusion of a continuous blue wall.

@Meisarch
I went down Regent Road about an hour ago, Dan. Even in the rain, on a dim, grim Liverpool night, it rises out of the Dock Road like a futuristic encounter with the past. It’s incredible.
One thing
@nealmaupay_
is absolutely correct about is the word “normalised”. On a continuum of podcast ‘rants’ at one end of the scale & this moron at Euston at the other, there’s a lot of unacceptable behaviour in our fan culture which is normalised. We must keep calling it out.

@bluekippercom
Unfairly viewed in comparison to Kendall, and suffered from being in Shankly’s media shadow, but Catterick produced two of the best Everton League-winning teams ever. Surely he deserves recognition at the new stadium?
He's obviously wounded by some of the abuse, but it's reactive, ill-advised, confused communication from Bill Kenwright. The timing is really appalling (he's not alone in that respect!!) but his failure to focus only on the team AT THIS TIME is yet another own goal.

As previously stated, this sets a dangerous precedent imho. I reiterated this in a posted question at last night’s official communication conduit, the FAB Meeting. My worry is that some independent podcasters & fan groups have become the unelected de facto voice of Evertonians.
@lukeWilko1878
I thought he played well last night, assisted the goal, helped O’Brien who was dodgy at times, and, as you say, had the balls to step up when it mattered.
Any chance on Sunday

Losing out to clubs offering CL football or being blocked by Arteta may have scuppered the end to this TW, but we've demonstrated that we won’t be ripped off, have retained Richarlison, have spent VERY wisely this time round, & have good money in the bank from a negative misfit.

Just one month later Everton were crowned 1st Division Champions beating Fulham 4-1. What a time that must have been. On Saturday
@Everton
will be celebrating 60th Anniversary. 💙
12 April 1963 – The Beatles headline an 8-hour ‘Shot of Rhythm and Blues Marathon’ at the Cavern Club, which begins at 4pm and ends at midnight, with nine acts taking to the stage during the course of the show. It’s the band’s 291st and penultimate show at this venue.

Same points as Brighton in 12th and 4pts behind West Ham in 9th represents some sort of progress under Dyche, and shows the minimum target for next season.
What did old Will Shakespeare say? "Cowards die many times before their death". What a great challenge these next few weeks will bring. Embrace it. Got to have dark to appreciate the light. UTFT. 💙
Everton Twitter is an odd mix of neophilia and nostalgia: yearning for ruthlessness and change, but anchored in a romanticised fiction of the past. Getting supporters to accept a proper blend of churn and catalyst - evolution - would be one of Carlo's greatest ever achievements.
Watching the Planning Meeting and it's the 2nd time in 3 days that I've had tears in my eyes. "Design evolution through engagement", "Respect and invest", and "People-centric story". What a narrative. This is the stuff of dreams. We are inside our own history here.
@Everton
Ancelotti as Manager. Elite players in the squad. The Everton brand lighting up North and South America. Dreams of a class new Bramley-Moore stadium. What a great time to be a Blue. 💙
An amendment to the planning application for a new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock has been submitted to Liverpool City Council. The design changes are exactly as outlined in Colin Chong’s blog last month. Read more here 👇
