Too much made of not making early signings. Always nice to have them but no big deal. If they sign them late, they'll be fit and ready to go. They've been playing football since they were 10. They understand tactics and different styles of play. They'll just slot in

Brilliant day with the Chorley Toffees. Lovely pic with @dixiesing.bsky.social

Blues on ITV 4 now. Big Match Revisited 84/85

BBC Breakfast coming live from Bramley Moore on and off all morning. Speaking to fans and players apparently

I parked on the car park opposite the passport office. £15. Its a NCP. Pall Mall i think it's called

I walked it down from the city centre. You can only imagine what it's like on a match day. It'll be amazing. You could hear all the Everton songs coming from the bars, a brilliant atmosphere.

The feel will be different again when there's flags on the lamp posts leading up to the ground, and when the ground is fully branded. A badge on the front of the stadium, pictures on the concourses and something on the seats.

It was baltic last night but I didn't feel that cold in the stadium. Potentially the roof kept the wind out. As soon as I left the stadium the wind made it feel colder as it whipped off the mersey

Our Chorley Toffees club season ticket seat. An amazing night. So many in the pubs near the ground. Easier to have a beer in town and walk the 20/25 mins to the ground

14 hours to kick off and I'm already excited for the test event at Bramley Moor. Gate opens at 17.30. I've a feeling I'll be 10,000th in the queue by then!

I know what you mean. Face like a slapped arse.

Watched all the spin offs. I enjoyed them all.
A bit daft in parts but I didn't care!

I was late to the party. I only started watching last year. Managed to watch everything! Took about 4 months on and off. Loved it though

Out of the door at 5am today. But I have a spring in my step after last night. Hoping I bump onto some red noses in Barnsley. I'd say the odds are quite high

Harry has managed to get a ticket for the Derby. His first and last at Goodison. I've warned him about what to expect. I suppose he'll find out for himself. Hopefully a night he won't forget in a hurry

Thanks for the summary Mike

He can smell a Sunday dinner on a Wednesday him

Looking forward to going to Goodison later with the Chorley Toffees. Potentially for the last time. Only 7 league games left 😱

Loved it Andy. Sometimes the second season of any show can be a let down but this was brilliant

Only just seen MOTD. Loved watching the reaction of the players on the bench and staff at the end. It gives a glimpse into the team spirit that's been created in literally 2 weeks

Let's hope so. I'm more confident in Moyes setting us up that way and nullifying their attack than I would be if Dyche was still in charge

You've got the pleasure of my company for the Leicester game!

They have. I think a late dash for a Champions League place is on the cards.

Massive game this weekend. Others around us have tough games. Picking up a point away against a very good Brighton side would be a good result. 3pts would be better!

Loved us during this time. Players knew their role, bags of teamspirit and played for the badge.

The criticism Moyes gets for playing unexciting football from pundits is unfair. We weren't just 'hard to beat' when he was in charge. We played some great football. Cahill, Arteta, Osman, Pienaar, Baines, Mirallas produced some amazing football here & in Europe.

No problem! Glad to see you're on the mend.

If you're after something to take your mind off Everton, I'd highly recommend Dart Kings on Sky. You'll love it if you're a child of the 70s and 80s. Bristow, Bobby George, and Jocky Wilson, Great documentary. I only thought of Everton briefly when they mentioned 1985!

Great episode gents. Kept me company this morning as I attempted to work off the 4000 calories I consumed yesterday #efc #everton open.spotify.com/episode/2QUq...
