Its something a bad wool would say.

Nah mate, plenty of Scousers say that. I’ve heard plenty of Mancs say the same too.

None of who should be trusted.

So assuming that you’re from Manchester, who are your wools? Ours are the Wirral, Runcorn, Skem, St Helens, Widnes and all that. Are GM places like Oldham for example classed as wool to you?

I'm from Manchester. Yes, your wools, of which I'm sure you are one, are the same as mine.
I've lived in Liverpool, my ex wife and son live there, and I feel I'm on firm ground when I say nobody really uses the word 'footy' - unless of course you're a wrong'un.

You’re way off there, mate, but we’ll agree to disagree. Don’t know where they live or where you lived in Liverpool but I can guarantee there’ll be people round there who say footy. Out of interest, what’s the correct term then?

Huyton.

Lineker signing for Barca was nothing to do with being out of Europe. The deal was done six months before it happened and was nothing more than a player using a club as a stepping stone to go to a bigger one.Remember, he was only at Everton for 12 months and shot the lights out, he scored about 40. Every big club in Europe were showing interest. But as for anybody else jibbing it off for European football, why didn’t any of our players do that? Rush was sold because we were broke and the fact that Inter and Juve had been sniffing around for a while. Meanwhile we formed one of our best ever teams who picked up big pots. None of them were in a hurry to jump ship for European football. It remains that the Everton being banned from Europe killed them myth is just that, it’s a myth.
And for the record, I’m happy to have footy chat like this all day. No snide remarks from anyone, just good old footy talk.

Like I said it's all supposition as we will never know for sure but I think you're deflecting from the point that fundamentally the behaviour of your followers damaged Everton more than any other club.
It denied them the opportunity to win a European Cup, that team was good enough.
It severely hamstrung their ability to build on what they had with regard to recruitment retention of key players and one of their greatest ever managers as a result.
Your followers have raised banners mocking this and your club is happy to condone this by allowing them to do so in the stadium.
The world has been waiting 35 years for an apology and still the wait goes on.
Had the ban occurred 10 years earlier, there would have been no wins in 77 or 78 and i would suggest probably not in 81 or 84 either.
When Everton were banned they were just starting to establish themselves whereas Liverpool had been established for many years due to the dominance of the previous decade which was started through the investment by the Moores Family. As a result they were able to continue to dominate as the foundations were in place already.
You've highlighted Lineker, his exit was negotiated months before but who's to say he wouldn't have stayed if they had been in Europe and even won the European Cup?
You have also ignored the points about Kendall, Steven and Stevens and the damage to their ability to recruit and retain players as a club trying to cement it's position.
.You've also failed to point out that selling Rush went towards funding the purchases of Beardsley, Barnes and Houghton the same summer he left.
Three expensive signings and an increased wage bill.
He was bought back for slightly less a year later therefore to say he was sold because you were broke is simply not true is it?

There’s definitely people in Huyton who say that.

So do you class the likes of Oldham, Bury & Stockport as wools then?

 

[Mr Fraser]

As I said at the time, I’ve been made to look like a complete tool here. I took my medicine in many, many verbal forms on here and then carried on. The difference here is that I don’t have the right of reply that others do when it comes to the more personal jibes because when I have, the other posters go crying to the mods. So I just stick to the footy chat, keep things in that area and stay around the sensibly toned posters.

You could do us all a favour and 4cough

Wrong'uns like I said.
Yonners.
