We've been here before, that is to say it's November and Everton are in turmoil. Bill 'Jack Frost meets Harvey Dent' Kenwright seems up for the challenge of saving the club from Peter Johnson's wreckage, but he'll have to wait another three months to see an Everton goal at the Street end, natch. It's not just low scoring though, it's also fast kicking, mainly by Olivier Dacourt and Marco Materazzi...

Les and Dave discuss whether David Moyes' habit of choosing his most "trusted" players is damaging team performances and results, before asking whether the manager needs time to build a squad as he has done previously at Everton and, more recently and more successfully, at West Ham. A look at his West Ham record feels very familiar to this version of Everton:2017–18: 13th place (first spell, took...

Walter Smith has turned down the mighty Sheffield Wednesday to see if he can win nine league titles in a row with Everton. It would help if the team could score a goal at Goodison before the end of November. In contrast to the summer of 1997 a flurry of exotic signings arrive, but the big transfer news of the season is a seismic departure orchestrated in secret by the nefarious food hamper magnate...

Everton are in almost equally good form, but patchy at home. Have we got the players to beat the home hoodoo and push for Europe? And does the manager need to make some bold decisions? As ever, the show is b...
