The fans got the Americans out, the fans at Everton changed their mickey mouse badge.

A great result have nothing to do with anything here, what about the Norwich game, is that relevant?

No I am not suggesting anything, I prefer proof, you wont find many Everton fans talking about Champions League and they are far more likely to get it than we are, that tells you something.

I am not the one resorting to petty insults, does your blind faith extend to a belief in God, the tooth fairies? I hope it does.

They do in a footballing City like Liverpool yes they do, the South Coast is not a footballing hotbed.

Us closing the gap on them will not be proved until the end of the season, not before, spending money is all well and good but you have to spend good, we have not, Ramirez and Osvaldo are not playing so near £30 Million is to waste straight away. Forren and Mayuka well thats another £7 Million, we have not done very well at all.

Liverpool are one of the largest clubs on the planet, thats a given and Spurs are probably in the top 25 with Everton not far behind, we wont overtake them for the fact their clubs fans wont allow it.

Everton have spent and sold well, they are prepared to spend when they have to, not too sure what you are trying to prove.

All that proves is they are successful in the transfer market, how much have they spent? You make yourself look stupid with a comment like that, are Spurs scrimping due to their net spend? Dear Lord.

I agree with the ambition, our fans seizing upon it seems to imply they think other clubs dont harbour the same thing, that lack of knowledge or ignorance if you will worries me as those clubs have done it before, have huge budgets and have a huge fan base, so sorry for me being pessimistic but why should I believe?

Sorry Bearsy forgot Toke's coming down your flue.

Urban myth that. http://www.transferleague.co.uk/premiership-transfers/everton-transfers.html

Because to achieve what he is trying is selling people air, explain to me as I want to believe how it can be achieved?

Promotion, a club of our size and support natural position is about the Championship/Premiership level. Probably closer to Premiership too be honest.

We have to get past three of Spurs, Everton, Man City, Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal and Chelsea, do you honestly see that happening for a sustained period of time? Do yuo think their fans will have that? That like Father Christmas coming down the chimney is not going to happen, it simply is not, there is no argument there, Cortese will have to spend as much as them on a consistent basis and even then payers always want to go to bigger clubs.

Dont be silly, real football fans knew football and you are supposed to be championing died years ago, lead into gold. Sky as you say have crushed it as have teams like Liverpool who win in effect very little domestically but can still pump millions upon millions into their club as they have a bottomless pit, hope? Dont be so naive.

Porto are a huge club with unique access to Brazil due to their history and language connection.

Sorry what was that rant? I slag off players as you put it as its a valid formof expression for someone who is a mercenary, this could be forgiven if he was good or even interested but he is not but we digress. One swallow does not make a summer, Mertesacker is still dodgy and Ramsay could regress, its not unthinkable is it?

Of course I did, are you trying now to call me a glory fan for us wanting to win a trophy as opposed to finishing 4th?

These "fans" crack me up, are they for real?

Really, how has being in the Champions League helped Everton or Newcastle?

Well thats worked a blinder hasn't it? He could quite simply as he is quoted as saying that he came here for the money? Or is that too simplistic?

So driven you quote me and come back, dont be a hypocrite, come on to a forum and contribute, how old are you?

To cut through that, you may not talk about the League Cup before but after you have won it you will. That is case and point.

I would not, for a club of our size we are hardly swimming in silverware, and we are hardly going to win the Champions League so we should run out a few academy players, would only be fair and evenhanded.................
