Jacksgranda Posted May 3, 2015 Share Posted May 3, 2015 A bit of a disappointing season - good wee run in Europe which ended in defeat - after elimination league form improved dramatically, thankfully. No need to worry about European distractions next season! League's out of reach, one of the cups anytime soon would be nice! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centralTon Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 (edited) Ex-midfielder Andy King has died of a heart attack aged 58, he'll always be remembered for his goal in the 1-0 win over Liverpool at Goodison in 1978. RIP Andy. Edited May 27, 2015 by centralTon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Estragon Posted June 13, 2015 Share Posted June 13, 2015 Pleased to see Tom Cleverley signing - he's had his critics in the past, but that's potentially a really good addition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamamafegan Posted June 16, 2015 Author Share Posted June 16, 2015 Friendly against Dundee on July 28th! Definitely going! Also reading gossip that Deulofeu could be signing for 3 million, would be a great signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, will try to get to this as well, definitely if our game against Getafe doesn't go ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Deulofeu returns for £4.3m. Pretty good signing, in my opinion, but not quite what's needed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larbert_Par Posted June 27, 2015 Share Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) Disappointingly lads, I think the Dundee game might be a closed doors affair. So a few of my mates down on Merseyside have been telling me anyway. Big Dunc's been given a testimonial against Villarreal at Goodison on 2nd August, 24 hours after the final friendly at Elland Road against Leeds. Think I'll try and go down for Dunc's game.

jamamafegan Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Anyone going to the Hearts or Dundee games? I just got my tickets for Tynecastle, plan on heading to Dens as well. Very excited. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very excited.Was up for Dundee but can't justify spending money on a pre-season game with the next 3 Accies games being the most expensive of the season.

accies1874 Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Poor start but could see it coming from a mile away. Plenty of Everton fans calling for Martinez's head on the club's Twitter which I think's a bit drastic but I'm not paying hundreds to watch them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Not the most auspicious of starts, it might have been acceptable as an away result, but very disappointing at Goodison. Ho, hum! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larbert_Par Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Poor start but could see it coming from a mile away. Plenty of Everton fans calling for Martinez's head on the club's Twitter which I think's a bit drastic but I'm not paying hundreds to watch them. The team's form has been poor for a while, going back to last season. Only a late rally got them up to 11th, and performances overall weren't good. The intensity in RM's first season wasn't there; last season they were too predictable and one-paced. Opponents sussed it but RM didn't change things to suit. If things don't pick up towards Christmas, then he'll be under pressure. I'm by no means in the Martinez out camp, but I'm worried he hasn't addressed the areas which have been glaringly obvious for a year - strengthening the defence (outwith Jagielka/Stones, there's no proven CB back up), up front (similar if Lukaku's injured) and a lack of pace in midfield. I was pleased he got Deuelofeu, but the squad's overloaded with central midfielders who are neat and tidy but sit in front of the back four. Pienaar and Osman, much as I like them, are the other side of 30 and don't have the pace or power to mix things up a bit like an Aaron Lennon does. Martinez has to bring fresh faces in, and that's before looking at the fixtures between now and October. It's a tough start and they have to do better than they did yesterday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 That was a bit better today! I'd have settled for 4 points from the opening 2 fixtures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larbert_Par Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Just finished watching it there, recorded it as I was at EEP. Very accomplished away performance and one of the best of RM's reign. Lukaku was unplayable today but I think credit has to go to the decision to play Kone, and his performance. Provided a good balance in attack. Lovely finish from Barkley for his goal but he should've scored first half. I'd have been very happy with a point down there so that's a tremendous result. John Stones again showed his quality for me too. Very impressed and looking forward to my first visit to Goodison this season next Sunday for the City game that little bit more now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
