I was multi tasking when i typed that. You know what I meant!

12 weeks. Plenty of similarities between Potter's losing streaks and Pardew's. Back to Tottenham... @Storts is there any concern about Fabio Paratici's involvement in this investigation against Serie A teams and what the knock-on consequences may be for Tottenham if he's found guilty of any criminal investigation? How much was his relationship with Antonio Conte a factor in Conte taking the managerial job? For example, could Paratici being forced our make Conte rethink about his position? Whilst Juventus make up about 40 of the 70 transfers on the list to be investigated and the high profile transfers screamed dodgy even before we all learned of amortisation, there deals don't even look like the most blatant form of cheating. Four of the players 'valued at €20 million' that went to Lille from Napoli in the Osimhen deal are now back in Serie C/D.

It depends if Jeff Hardy is well to be honest. If he is then I don't see any harm in a farewell type tour where they wrestle all the tag teams in AEW. People will need to dampen expectations as there bodies aren't what they used to be.

Jeff Hardy released. On the weekend he walked out of a house show mid match.

All the posts in this thread do emphaisise that the culture within politics does really need to change. I'm usually hesitant to vote for either party because I feel like I'll be getting burnt from both ends of the candle regardless of who will win because of the constant lieing from influential members of both political groups.

Yeah, dont begrudge Cody for protecting Andrade's face but just do another move.

I stand corrected!

@RandoEFC I don't think the Police can bring about charges if its listed as a Summary Only Offence as the Statutory Time Limit of six months would have expired. I'm not sure if there would be a loophole for matters of significant public interest given its allegedly 30+ politicians intentionally committing a criminal act but you'd like to think that would have been considered before a public announcement being made.

Well it would take something this severe to help Brighton end this ten game unbeaten streak.

I haven't had this much sleep since Uni!

I love how many of the "Smart Fans" are losing there mind over how he HAS to turn heel. He's practically Homelander from The Boys at the point. Tony Khan's playing 5D chess while they're playing checkers.

12 weeks today. Been sleeping between 8-10 hours a night for the previous 8 weeks. I've got no idea what you've all been complaining about.

@MUFC

I can't listen to the videos. I can't even begin to fathom how an adult could treat a child in such a horrific manner. Its hard just to think about what he had to endure, what he must have felt and the pain he must have experienced from utter vermin who were supposed to love and protect him. The horror of it all must have been unbearable. So many people in this country are desperate to have Children and can't. So many people would have happily given him a loving home environment. His parents did not deserve him.

Truth Hurts - 6/10. Easy series to get through as after thr first episode it's six 30 minute episodes but the series is too predictable.

I saw a video of a fan taking his frustration out on Brands after the Liverpool game and my initial thought was the money must be too sweet for him to stay if everything that's been printed in the reputable columns are true about the lack of actual responsibilities he's had over the previous two years. He did say something about it not just being the players fault which I imagine didn't go down too well. Hopefully he can take on a 'blank template' type club overseas as his next project and then we can make a fair assessment over whether Everton would have been putting more faith in him over Carlo and Rafa.

Hey, glad you see you've managed to get electricity again back up North and are back on the forum

... I was one of the Palace fans calling the Roy Out brigade ungrateful . That explanation in that statement is far more clear to be honest. I think most of us were saying in the summer that there's no point having somebody with Marcel Brands reputation at the club as a Director of Football if hes not allowed to do his job. The owner does need to be more clear with fans and hiding behind Jim White (as the West Ham owners do to an extent) has always been a bit cringeworthy. I think the situation has been a bit exaggerated to suggest the last 27 years have all been complete shite but the majority of the thought behind the walkout does make sense.

I have to disagree with the notion that success from the 80s and before should have any bearing on a clubs expectation to be honest given how quickly the growth of the Premier League has stripped competition with the emergence of big four, big six etc. over time. Maybe if Everton did appoint Arsene Wenger or sign Eric Cantona they wouldn't have fallen away from Arsenal or Manchester United but I dont see how reflecting on moments in history like that really help anyone. United nearly sacked Fergie and David Dean has admitted he got fortunate with Wenger. Those decisions enabled them to kick on at a time when the global brand was expanding. From memory they kicked off about falling behind in 1998 when they nearly went down and quite rightly too as they situation was a lot more dire than this. I'm as guilty as anyone for winding up Everton fans about being boring but they've still has some good moments under David Moyes leadership and the initial part of Roberto Martinez leadership. Hopefully they'll get through this turgid period, Doucoure and Calvert-Lewin will return and they'll push on for a top eight finish with a good cup run. Which given the situation Carlo Ancelotti dropped on them should be reflected as a good season.

I think you come across as a bit ungrateful by saying 'good on them' to be honest. Let's look at some of those teams in the Premier League in the mid 90's since you last won a trophy that were arguably at one time or another in a similar position to yourselves. Leeds United, Nottingham Forest, Derby County, Aston Villa. They've all experienced a lot more hardship than yourselves over that period and that is largely down to the way Bill Kenwright and others around him have guided your club to making the key correct decisions when necessary to largely keep you a top half club for the majority of that time frame. As for what's happened since Farhad Moshiri bought the club, well, how many times in that period were Everton fans happy with the transfer business they had done at the time? How many times have people claimed 'Everton have won the transfer window'? How many people criticised the appointment of Carlo Ancelotti? Yes, you're having to cut back now because of FFP but progress is still being made. Rafa Benitez for example appears to be conducting an overhaul of your medical staff which seems paramount given your track record of repeated injuries. Ambition from Moshiri and other board members certainly isn't the problem. I understand the board made a divisive appointment in Benitez and the team are going through a bad period with injuries to key players but they'll get through this. The starting eleven on paper is still a top half Premier League club. To stage a walk out because you haven't won a trophy despite staying in the top flight for the last 842 years just makes your fan base look arrogant and ungrateful to the large majority of people who will show no sympathy towards your situation.

@Devil-Dick WillieHomelander defeated The Evil Mexican last night on Dynamite.

Great Goalie in his prime in the 90s.

Yeah, I watched Slammiversary and thought they made a mistake by just presuming every viewer would automatically know who he was. Thankfully they've got back on track with there booking since the partnership with AEW ended. Yeah, him and Kyle O'Reilly were a really good tag team in Ring Of Honor called ReDragon.
