Some have gone as far as to claim that fifteen teams could be relegated from the Premier League this season, especially with West Brom, Hull and Stoke all putting up a decent fight. Clubs seem to be scrambling over each other to avoid sitting in the drop zone, with Tottenham still bottom of the table […]

So there we have it. David Moyes has finally signed a new contract at Goodison Park, the paperwork finally leaving ‘the hands of his lawyers’ after what seems like an eternity. Quite why this has dragged on until the middle of October is open to question, especially as it appears to have proved unsettling to […]

As loopy ideas go, this is a top one. Sacking the manager only a handful of games into the season is one of the few things guaranteed to destabilise a club still further and send it reeling into the abyss. If the manager in question has guided your once-proud team of paupers to fifth […]

There may have only been seven matches played this season in the Premier League (six if you’re Manchester United or Fulham), but there are some unlikely names assembling in the bottom half dozen of the table. While Newcastle residing in the lower half of the table isn’t a great surprise this term, to see the […]

Yep, it’s Slacker Sunday, Everton vs Newcastle, Dumb vs Dumber, as two of the Premier League’s biggest disappointments come head to head. Everton have had a woeful summer and an egregious season so far, getting dumped out of the UEFA and Carling Cup at the first hurdle and being comfortably beaten by their neighbours […]

The Toffees went into Thursday night’s match with Liege as underdogs and, in the end, the Belgian champions proved too strong. While Everton may have deprived them of Marouane Fellaini over the two legs, Standard still proved too strong for their English opponents, playing a 4-5-1 formation to great effect. However, David Moyes claims that […]

David Moyes, Everton manager, has just presided over what is probably the most rotten beginning to the season since he became gaffer, but should the ginger Scot be given the boot? Everton’s loss to Liverpool in the Merseyside derby is now sandwiched between two cup losses; being dumped out of the Carling Cup and yesterday […]

This season has been a poor one for Everton, and their abject state was compounded on Saturday with a dire 2-0 loss to rivals Liverpool at ‘fortress’ Goodison. That wasn’t the worst thing to happen to the Toffees on Saturday though, it looks like David Moyes is still no closer to signing his contract, and […]

It wasn’t the greatest of Merseyside derbies, but was very much job done as far as Rafael Benitez was concerned. Two excellent strikes from Fernando Torres ensured a deserved victory for Liverpool, while Everton continue to look shoddy defensively and now face one of their key players being suspended for the next three matches. But […]

What’s happened, Moyes?
Everton, the team described as “the sado-masochists of Europe” by the Guardian’s Andy Hunter after last night’s shoddy performance, have to somehow scrape their way back from a 2-2 draw for their next encounter with Standard Liege.
