Tbf, that doesn't sound a bit terrifying.

Urgh. Just leaving to go to London so my kid can meet up with her online mate from the States and they can geek out about Dungeons and Dragons in Camden. Fun for them, boring for me!

Good to read you're feeling more positive. And great to read you've been sober for a week. Keep working on it, we're all rooting for you.

In Selfidges in Manchester so my wife can spend her birthday voucher. Am I the only one who thinks that every single item for sale in this place is a waste of money?

Look like the better side. Lacking a bit of urgency though. Surely we couldn't c0ck this up, right?

Moyes: the boy's done really well, but he's got a lot to learn in the defensive third at this level...🤣😭

Ndiaye at home to Spurs. We still liat 3-0. 🙄

I actually thought we played alright. In possession we had a period in the 2nd half where we couldn't string a pass together. But otherwise we were disciplined, committed and managed to create the best chances of the game. Can't expect to dominate a tricky away game with fluid attacking football.

And he was a fucking wall for 90+ mins.

I'm gonna say this... I thought the game yesterday was fascinating, not dull. It ebbed and flowed, each team figuring out small tactical changes that the other team made and responding accordingly. And Everton's defence was a masterclass.

Aha! I can sleep easy again. How could I have forgotten about our Prince Micky Kegs!

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 13/09/2026
Im really worried about Barry - can't see how he can cope with 3 matches this week. Hoping George can play there at some stage, but that relies on Grealish playing a full 90....

And you ruined everyone's Sunday. Well done. 😉

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
I agree, Mike. Patience needed. But also fair to criticise the absolute balls up of the last week of the window. Leaves Moyes having to pull a miracle for 4 months and a quick improvement from January onwards at board level.

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
See, I just dont agree. I do think they're hands off owners and they're running a business, not a football team. But they defo have a long term strategy.

What if we showed him the oive and he decided to join in january after all? Not sure how I'd feel now?🤷‍♂️

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
I actually don't think that's true. They've ballsed up this transfer window and burnt bridges with fans. But I think they're in it for the long term. Expecting change to be painfully slow, but ultimately successful. Look at what happened to Villa and the barcodes when they tried to go too fast.

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 04/09/2026
Some pause for thought here...

20 transfers out? Who were all them - cant have been that many let go from the youth system?

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 02/09/2026
Genuine question - outside the fume- do we know why (after being there so long and even signing his name, apparently) did he suddenly change his mind at the last minute? It's not like he didn't have an opportunity earlier in the evening. Im actually fuming with Balogun.

Erm - anyone heard from Maitland Niles in the last few hours?

Fair enough. Can't honestly say I blame him. Might be more of a bloodbath at Hill Dick on Sunday, though. (Can you see what I did, there?)

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
No - he's been announced. 3rd one is a return of the Stracq! 💪🏻

Feel like it's always worth buying them - there's always a good reason (might not be Everton related though...)

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
Just a thought. What if we "only" bring in Grealish and Balogun? I'd be worried and would consider it a real failure of a window to leave ourselves with only 1 recognised full back. But also excited about Grealish and Balogun.

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
Id have Jack back at every opportunity. I get the arguments that he slows down attacks and potentially blocks George's progress, but I dont think any club would turn down a player of his calibre. Except City, obvs.
010
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
But will we (the club) still want him if we've got Balogun? I hope so - just because i still rate him as a player, regardless of the fact he's a true blue legend.

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
Arent we in for a lad from Nice as a LB. Bard?
000
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
So, do we think Balogun and Richy, or is Richy off the table now? My heart is saying both, but my head says just one.
220
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 31/08/2026
Anyone heard or seen anything of Kenny Tete? Or that LB from Nice. Or Lille or somewhere like that? Bard is it?

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 30/08/2026
Does anyone know if we have to sell a player because of SCR or is it just to limit losses on behalf of TFG?
000
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 30/08/2026
Exactly. Other reports saying club leadership had agreed the fee. Doesn't make much difference because the damage has been done already.
000
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 30/08/2026
Bobble's post implied TFG agreed to the sale but 'club leadership' and fans convinced them to change their mind. Who really knows, though. 🤷‍♂️

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 27/08/2026
It's quite good, tbf. Think I prefer the away kit, tho. Also, it's not that different from the home shirt, so when would we wear it? (Answer - no doubt on Saturday).
000
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 24/08/2026
Just organising my thoughts then... Seems like the club want: JO'B - out Beto - out Doué - in Delay- in Left Back - in? Grealish - in? NDiaye - stay Probably some loans in and out for fringe/younger players? Feels like a lot for 1 week!

First day of the season - Toffees to win 3-1. Im gonna waste it at Chester races enjoying someone else's hospitality. In my chauffeur driven car on the way right now! Feeling like a bit of a Billy no mates atm, if im honest!

Not just SATs, but all written, silent exams. They dont reflect a student's aptitude, knowledge or ability at all - we need far more realistic assessment methods.

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 15/08/2026
I'm not particularly Moyes In or Out. I think Myko is ok and a reasonable defender. And I don't worry about Röhl, JO'B or Patto playing RB. Though Garner is better than all 3. I do think this season is make or break for Moyes tho. And we'll reap the rewards of last summer more than this summer.

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 13/08/2026
Everton won a game from 2-1 down to win 3-2 in the 90s. I was doing homework and made myself keep working to the final whistle. Now believe they win if I'm being prductive - Karma. So i'll do anything until 5pm on Sat; wash up, pay bills, help with kids' homework etc. Wife thinks it's brilliant!

Well, that's fucked the poor lad before the season's even started!!

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 10/08/2026
Fair enough. But in England, I'm right. Right?

Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 10/08/2026
Ya know how people talk about a DCM being a 'no. 6'. Well shouldn't it be a 'no. 4' - left over from the change in formation when teams just had 2 'full' backs? Ie: GK - 1 RFB - 2 LFB - 3 RCB - 5 LCB - 6 CDM - 4 CM - 8 RW - 7 LW - 11 No. 10 - 10 (obvs) CF - 9

Great news pal. A much better end to Sunday than Saturday by the sounds of things.👍

You ok? Just wanting to check all is ok?
060
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
True. And, although it's frustrating, I like the fact that TFG will set a price for a player and, if they dont get him, they just move on. No value ladder to keep climbing like happened with Gylfi. Seems like sensible ling term thinking to me.
010
Jon Saward @jonsaward.bsky.social · 08/08/2026
Here's a thought. Not saying I agree but what if the club aren't as bothered about a RB as we think? What if they reckon we have 4 players who can cover the position, so it's not worth spending much, if anything, this summer - although they will try to get one if they can?
