Ridiculous if they disallow this. Keeper had clear view, and was getting nowhere near the header anyway.

Everton midfield appear to have taken full advantage of the cheap midday pints in the stadiums
Best bit of the new gaff. A proper fireplace. Just had it checked by a sweep (sadly with no small, dirty urchin to go up it) and first test fire going. Winter is going to cosy.
Dibling has been very good tonight. Really nice to see. Hope this means he gets more minutes in the league.
Want some revenge against Wolves tonight after last years surrender. But it’s the League cup and I hate that with a burning passion as we never do well in it. But we hopefully play close to a full strength side. Wolves started season in ok form so need to be wary.
If I still worked in Menswear I would 100% be putting some geo-targeted ads into Piddington for Black and Brown shirts.
So stupidly excited for this. Always my favourite 2000AD strip. And @manmademoon.bsky.social really needs to do Nemesis the Warlock next if it takes off. So apt for today’s times.
I got to see this film a few weeks ago and it is ace. I was a medium-sized fan of 2000AD as a youth, my daughter had never heard of it, and we both absolutely loved it. Catch it if you can. whatson.bfi.org.uk/lff/Online/a...
So a corker of a day had. Not. Helped my 85 year dad get on his train back home from Euston and got caught between a Japanese family with dozens of bags so didn’t make it back to the doors in time to get off - first stop was fucking Tamworth as well. 😂. An hour layover and now heading back. FFS.
Yer man on last night of the Proms is going to have the gammons absolutely spitting fumes. Glorious stuff.
Kids aren’t always great at picking who they admire as heroes. And growing up they often disappoint you. But having Neville as my boyhood hero has proved to be a solid choice. An utter mensch.
Sighs. Just far too easy for United all over the pitch there.
Screamer of an equaliser from George. Coleman-esque. Now let’s get properly into these for the last 10.
Branthwaite’s Mop is a half way house between Alan Whittle and Dave Hickson.
Reckon we’ll do United today. They’re not a great team. And definitely weakest defensively.
These boats are small. Those boats are far away. Small. Far Away.

Good episode today from @skepticswithak.org where this guy gets a lot of coverage, heavy links to Peter Thiel, Toby Young and Cofnas. Suspect there’s more to unravel over time here.
'Cambridge University has said it is examining the conduct of James Orr, its associate professor and a top Reform UK aide, after he was filmed appearing to try to circumvent electoral laws on foreign political donations.'
Everton currently £30m in profit for this transfer window. 👀
If we get the mooted deals in/out I think overall the squad has more quality, is younger, better balanced, and more progressive in playing style than LY. Pending impact of Ndiaye going and with a distinct (and ongoing) lack of depth in FBs. Still work to do but it’s far from a terrible window.
Never really worked out for Beto at Everton. Wasn’t for lack of effort, he worked his arse off and came across as a lovely bloke. Footballing opinions are just that. Opinions. He is a sound bloke who gave everything. We should wish him well.
A sensible enough signing at a low cost. Still feel we need a guaranteed first teamer. But hey, a right back is a right back.

Good point. I do really like Ndiaye. But Trading him for Grealish and Richy plus cash to spend elsewhere is a good deal overall.
I'd come to terms with Ndiaye leaving so no fume here. Give me a Richarlison, Grealish and spend the near 60m profit on a fast young forward. We'll be a much better side. Onwards.
Well the 5 minutes of positive news was nice while it lasted.
