It was 30 years ago today

It was 30 years ago today that Howard Kendall joined Everton as player/manager from Blackburn Rovers. After a shaky start, and some well dodgy purchases in the transfer market, Howard eventually fashioned together a side that was, at its pomp, considered by many judges to be the best in Europe. They won the FA Cup in 1984, and the League Championship & European Cup-Winners Cup the next year.
The side was to be cruelly broken up after the European ban, yet Kendall still managed to win the title again before decamping to Spain.

He is also a very nice man.

And he likes a bevvy.

Cheers, Howard! Love ya.

I know it's worth pot loads of money, but............

Isn't the Champions League a load of KACK?
Boring boring boring.

Of course, if Everton were in it, different ball game.

Poetry Corner 1

I am your latest signing,
You won't believe the fee.
My Agent's in the corner.
He looks after me.

I'll give you fourteen Matches,
And then my groin I'll strain.
I'll bugger off on holiday,
And not be seen again.

I am your latest signing,
You won't believe the fee.
My Agent's in the corner.
He looks after me.

I'll tell the press you hate me,
I'll carp and I'll complain.
I'll tell my lovely agent
It's Italy or Spain.

I am your latest signing,
You won't believe the fee.
My Agent's in the corner.
He looks after me.

I am your latest nightmare
You won't receive a fee,
And still you'll pay a million pounds
to see the back of me.

I am ANOTHER signing
You won't believe the fee.
My agent's in the corner.
He looks after me.
It's just a case of Deja Vu
You all know the score.
Get rid of one plonker,
then go and sign one more.

Hypocrite!

Oh dear.....here he goes again!

Rafa Benitez accuses Sam Allardyce of telling his teams to play hard and dirty.

What about Benitez's team targetting Steven Pienaar and Marouine Fellaini in the recent Merseyside Derby match?
45 seconds gone - right arm smash into Pienaar's face by Jamie Carragher.
Second half - season-ending challenge on Fellaini.

Pot, Kettle, Waiter.
