My wife threatened to leave me unless I stopped quoting Toto’s Africa I told her it’s going to take a lot more than that to drag me away from you

Webb will allow a few days for this to blow over before announcing Mac has been charged ref his 12 men tweet

He’s incompetent at best and biased as hell at worst. Sack him already.

Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.

I remember Wenger asking to replay a game, think it was an fa cup game, because of an error. There’s no integrity left in this game these days, or very little. As I said earlier, these idiots make so any stupid mistakes we would see almost every game replayed.

Just sack him. Bin the officials running var and train an independent body to run it. Suspend it until they’ve got it right, it’s ruined the game and is overturning correct decisions at times. Did he think nobody would notice? We have seen in a utd game the teams marched back on to the pitch to take a penalty. So they’re not scared of correcting things when it suits them.

Well not if you count the Chelsea player booked for exactly that minutes before Mac. But as with all their new season ideas, they fade like an Everton title challenge.

There won’t be a replay, thus bunch of d*ckheads make so many mistakes we would end up playing this season until 2025 WWF or F1 has more credibility than premiership referees

He should be sacked, f&ck it he’s either corrupt or incompetent and not fit for that job in either case.

Cheating b$stards can shove their apology where the sun don’t shine

Looking Scottish

Hasn’t he already got a suspended ban?

Don’t worry the ref will see his mistake a half time and balance out those decisions by giving spurs a penalty and sending off another of our players

Never known us get so many red cards so early on in a season, most of them ridiculous or wrong. Lovely this VAR isn’t it.

Still enough time to all change and we haven’t got our points yet

https://www.grandoldteam.com/2023/09/20/opinion-the-harsh-reality/ Having considered quietly and at length, I believe this accurately summarises Everton’s current predicament in relatively simple terms. Everton’s expenditure on salaries, interest on existing loans, etc is more than its income from television, match day ticket sales, etc. In addition there is the ongoing cost of building the new stadium. In order to balance the books Everton need an approximate additional £1m cash each and every day during at least the rest of the current season. £1m cash a day can only be found in three ways: selling assets – but there is nothing to sell other than players which would weaken the playing squad further. borrowing money – but we would have to pay very high rates of interest which increases our cash requirement further, if indeed anybody is wiling to lend money to Everton. the owners putting more money in – but Moshiri appears to have limited available money to put in and the possible 777 sale is a number of months away, and even then there is no evidence that 777 have the cash to put in £1m each and every day. 4. If Everton cannot find £1m cash a day then Everton would be bankrupt and would go into what is called administration. Under Premier League rules clubs that go into administration suffer an immediate deduction of 9 points which would almost certainly result in Everton being relegated at the end of the season. 5. How did Everton get into this position? The board of directors who have the responsibility for the running of the club made a number of mistakes: they spent too much money on player transfers and salaries. they did not grow the commercial income sufficiently, for example from shirt and other sponsors. they did not put in place long term borrowings akin to a house mortgage to fund the cost of building the new stadium when interest rates were low. they relied on Moshiri being able to provide all the cash that Everton needed as and when the club needed it, without considering the risk that something unexpected could lead to this changing. they did not consider the risk that the interest rate they would have to pay to borrow money would increase significantly. 6. Is there a way out of this mess? Sadly, and it is indeed a Harsh Reality, it is difficult to see any way out that does not result in bankruptcy and relegation.

I wake up with injuries I did not have when I went to sleep

Wonder if Tierney would have come to a different conclusion if that goal was the winner (after var looked at the Nunez challenge)

Never in doubt

I love a Robbo goal

Never in doubt
