Well said John,

Hopefully we can hang on to Branthwaite and he goes anywhere other than man united when he does go.

Ratcliffe seems to believe that the top 6 teams should have anything they want and the other 14 teams should be grateful for them and basically know their place as nothing other than feeder clubs and that Utd should get a new stadium courtesy of the taxpayers, a view that seems to be shared by some of the people in charge of the premier league.

Hopefully there will be a more level playing field in the future but I’m not so sure, either way I am feeling uncomfortably optimistic about this season and am daring to dream of a season with no relegation worries and a chance to enjoy our final season at Goodison Park, surely that’s not too much to ask for.

Bang on JB.

If ever the phrase “Hate the game not the players” were applicable, it is here

Cute accounting is quickly labelled as cheating by those who don’t understand the fundamental principles involved - and who think they should have their pick of Branthwaite and others at whatever price they deem to be appropriate.
