The FA Cup holders are given a seemingly benign 3rd round draw against Stockport County, who used to have the closest football ground to the River Mersey don't you know. Right back is becoming a problem position with Earl Barrett injured, and Matt Jackson unfancied, so some midfielders and a young centre half fill in admirably while we wait 7 (seven) weeks for Marc Hottiger's work permit to get fa...

LISTEN IN FULL: https://tinyurl.com/3bv5288n After the worst week so far at Hill Dickinson Stadium, Matt is joined by Adam and Foxy to assess the damage. What approach to Everton take in the transfer window after being dumped out of the FA Cup? And what will that mean for Barry and Beto? The fourth-kit fiasco is also slammed - well, at least by two of us - and we moan about VAR after the latest sh...

With Paddy still absent - last spotted in a Noosa drinking spot - Matt is joined by the Liverpool Echo’s Everton correspondent Joe Thomas this week. We assess where the defeat to Sunderland leaves the team. Keep powder dry for the summer? Or chips in in the transfer market in the race for a European place? The new fourth kit is also on the agenda. Should Everton play in anything other than royal b...

What could have been a memorable week of football that saw Everton move up the table and progress in the FA Cup has turned out to be a disaster. On the pitch, the team looks devoid of ideas and players lack confidence, and the manager is once again dampening expectations. Off the pitch, some fans are struggling to adapt to the new surroundings, and the club released a navy and pink that will only...

Les and Dave pick through another woeful home defeat for Everton. Once again, Moyes has needlessly changed a winning team, and it's seen Everton slump to a third heavy defeat at home to mid-table opposition. Is it down to the manager? Should he be doing better against teams around Everton, even with limited resources? And can he put it right ahead of a huge week of league and cup games? Learn more...
