Everton stuff. Thunder STH. Host of The Kick About on theblueroomefcpod.bsky.social. Music rabbit holes. Boricua.🇵🇷📍OKC
Anyone got a great reel of Pickford’s career best saves they’d recommend? I wish to spread his gospel. #EFC
Crime 101 was fun and had me hooked throughout. Love me a really good heist film. Great cast, score, and plenty of tense action. Also, the world needs more Halle Berry.
@albabycakes.bsky.social Loved the pod as usual. Felt like the Chet analysis was a bit harsh. Totally get you on impacting more offensively, but his overall defensive impact was pretty massive last night or am I imagining that? Spurs were forced into a bunch of of uncomfortable midrange looks.
⚽ The KickAbout 🔵 @therobvera.bsky.social & @lesroberts.bsky.social on the preseason so far, transfer rumours, and what profile of player #Everton need to be in for. There’s also more on The Blue Room’s trip to Chicago next week 📺 youtu.be/HFZI9JEMito 🔊 pod.fo/e/303635

While you wait on Everton to make more signings, remember that it is TFG’s responsibility to validate your optimism in the form of tangible improvement to the squad. It is NOT your job to carry water for them by telling everyone that slow business is a sign of their acumen. #EFC
🇺🇸 See you in Chicago, Toffees! 🎙️ @mattjfootball.bsky.social and @paddyboyland.bsky.social will be hosting a live Byline podcast with @therobvera.bsky.social and Mark Mosey ahead of the friendly with West Ham next week. All the details you need below👇 #EFC
It’s only a mostly meaningless preseason friendly, but O’Brien on the bench in favor of Keane already is triggering, no lie. #EFC
Thunder title secured. Title parade finished. Now I can give my full, undivided attention to Love Island USA. 🇺🇸
And so it begins! Transfer Show available NOW in all the usual places. Gonna be a weird and wacky summer at Everton… #EFC

The new Mission Impossible was so intense and so over the top and self aware and fun and and silly and badass and full of the best stunt work you can imagine by a huge movie star and thus, I didn’t care if it was a bit too long. Popcorn pleasure escapism, yall. Go enjoy!
New ownership, new stadium, no fresh PSR concerns! TWO summer windows?! Damn right, the return of @theblueroomefcpod.bsky.social Transfer Podcast is nigh! #EFC

The exceedingly obvious first domino of the summer window(s) has fallen for Everton. From the fit to the performances to the fee, it always felt like a bizarre rhetorical exercise to explain why Alcaraz somehow wouldn’t end up moving to Everton permanently. Great start. #EFC
🚨Breaking! - Everton expect to complete their deal for Carlos Alcaraz by the 31st of May. Talks with Flamengo are progressing for £12.6M fee (Source - Letícia Marques per Paul Joyce )
The Thunder making 27 shots outside the paint, out of 53 attempts, is ridiculous. I don't think people understand how crazy that number of makes on jump shots is. OKC averaged 19.0 made field goals per game outside of the paint during the regular season; NBA teams averaged 17.2
FT: Newcastle 0-1 Everton. The Blues finish the season off strong w/3 straight victories—this one being easily the biggest surprise. Great performances all around, but particularly Alcaraz and Pickford who simply wouldn’t be denied today. A genuinely exciting summer ahead! #EFC
📰 The Weekly - The Goodison Festival Warren, @peterjmacca.bsky.social and @therobvera.bsky.social have more reaction and a very different perspective on the final day at #Goodison. 🔊 pod.fo/e/2d8ec3 📺 youtu.be/VjlGCkxLQaw

Welp, that was annoying. Let’s get to the summer already. #EFC
If you haven’t seen enough from Charly Alcaraz at this point to think we ought to pay the very reasonable fee to make his loan permanent, then we clearly don’t see football the same. It’s an easy decision and one less thing that needs doing this summer. Get it done. #EFC
Alcaraz for Doucoure? McNeil for Harrison? Yes and yes, please. #EFC
🚨 The team that starts for Everton today against Ipswich Town! Thoughts on the team? #COYB
They said it couldn’t be done, but Mark Mosey and I recorded a 2+ hour mega pod chock full of hard core Everton talk including big deep dives on DCL, Moyes, and squad building ahead of next season. Your weekend mountain to climb is here, kids! Out NOW in the usual places! #EFC
For fans of @theblueroomefcpod.bsky.social Kick About 2.0, my old running buddy Mark Mosey will be joining me to record a little reunion episode later tonight! We’ll talk end of season, Moyes: The Sequel, and players that Everton just can’t seem to quit. Should drop Friday! #EFC
Honored to be one of those interviewed for this lovely piece on making one final trip to Goodison. For the record, I was speaking (mostly) tongue-in-cheek when I classified my harrowing journey home as a worthy price to pay for Moyes’ first post-return Everton victory. 😆 #EFC
"I hope as many people (as possible) got to Goodison in this last season. Boy, there’s nothing like it." With just two games left until Everton leave Goodison, fans detail the lengths they've gone to to say goodbye & what makes the stadium so special www.nytimes.com/athletic/632...

Given the age, trajectory, injury history and overall lack of production in recent years, what is the logical argument for giving Calvert-Lewin a new contract at Everton? (And no, we shouldn’t be spending considerable money to bring back a diminished Richarlison, either). #EFC
FT: Chelsea 1-0 Everton. Another classic “I can’t believe I woke up at 6 AM for this horseshit” TV viewing experience to add to the collection. #EFC
