If we don’t need the money - and the CEO said we didn’t - then it’s one of the most staggering decisions the club has made in the 50+ years I’ve supported them. Unfathomable.
I drove east into London on the A40 this afternoon. Light breeze, not too hot. London is always beautiful in the sunshine.
Drove past Uxbridge. No riots, no looters, no cars overturned and ablaze, no sirens.
Drove past Greenford. No riots, no looters, no cars overturned and ablaze, no sirens.
Drove past Acton. No riots, no looters, no cars overturned and ablaze, no sirens.
Parked in Westfield. There is sun, no sign of rain, but the full rainbow of humanity is here indoors.
(They say they want their country back, but they actually want their empire back, the one their grandparents' generation lost. The Empire came home. And here we all are! )
The shop assistants everywhere were from every corner of the earth. The customers the same. Girls and boys, men and women, from every place in the world, peacefully going about their lives on a London Sunday in a cathedral to capitalism in Shepherds Bush.
No shouting. No swearing. No mugging. No knifing. No looting. No burning. Just the world in one city under a giant glass roof in peace.
Sometimes, you don't know how good you actually have it. When London is good, it's really bloody good.
Most places in England are good, most of the time. Most people in England are good, no matter what the forces that seek to divide us want us to believe.
I remember being broke and homeless 20 years ago this year, carrying my possessions in four bags and thanking God for my legs when I was deep in my material nadir.
You already have your country. I already have my country. Both can be true.
I don't want to take your job, unless I'm better at it. I don't want to put shariah in place over your head and in any case, the law in this country is about as close to shariah as I need. Why would I endanger that just to piss you off for some marginal gain? Think about it.
We can get along. We are not enemies. Those grifters are fooling you, scamming you, and they're thick. They think 1+1=Foreigners. Their sums don't add up. They get tax breaks. Do you? Work it out.
We aren't going anywhere and we won't roll over frightened like our parents did. We belong here. We ARE the British Empire. This is the legacy.
It's not us you want your country back from. It's the foreign papers, the con artists who took COVID money, the scum who bought our water, the financial institutions who gambled away our future and made us pay for their next round of bonuses in an endless era of austerity. We didn't freeze old people to death. We didn't make food banks necessary. Cameron and Co did all that. We're just easy targets. A distraction.
This is still a beautiful country. This is still a peaceful country. How about we find away to make it better for all of us:?
Isn't London beautiful in the sunshine?
Prof Stephen Reicher, "I would appeal to you to not call these people protestors. They're not protestors"
"To call them protestors is profoundly misleading. It is to discredit a long tradition of perfectly legitimate and peaceful and important protest that has made our society better in many ways"
"What's going on is specific to these crowds.. Crowd psychology is there when people are cleaning up the streets as well as attacking the streets.. The difference is one group has an ideology of hate and violence, another has a vision of community and solidarity"
"Most people are pro immigration.. The irony is that over recent years attitudes towards immigration has become more positive.. People see immigrants as a boom rather than as a menace to the country.. Britain is one of the more liberal countries"
"If we didn't have migrants then our care service would fall apart, our NHS would fall apart.. It's important not to highlight the negative exceptions, but to show that most people are pro migrants"

Following @Everton's points deduction by the @Premierleague, Yasin Patel discusses their appeal, whether the punishment is just and fair, and how the Premier League might fare in this quandary #EPL#FinancialFairPlay#Everton#SportsLaw

Don’t always believe what you read in the media, if you want the truth you have to go and look for it…So 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗴𝗼!👀
The Premier League are desperate to control the narrative & spin things to certain journalists & media outlets to suit their own agenda & cover up how incompetent they truly are.
So here’s what they don’t want the media to write. Here’s what’s really going on. Please see the photos or click the link below. #PremierLeagueMakingItUpAsTheyGoAlong
Agreeing to PSR is one thing but having a sanction that isn't written down anywhere and isn't transparent is a huge issue for the Premier League. MPs pointed this fact out to Richard Masters at the recent Select Committee.
🔘 The breach came from interest payments on the new stadium at BMD. It was not on transfers/players.
🔘 Premier League were ok with Everton’s methods the year before when building out of own cashflow but not year after when they changed the rule mid-process.
🔘 A breach of this nature derived no sporting advantage and the commission acknolwdged was not done deliberately or cynically.

@nickdemarco_ Given the commission determined that no sporting advantage was gained, the 2 teams impacted (LCFC & Burnley) can only complain that the punishment was not given in one of the last 2 seasons. Something entirely out of EFC's control, so any case for compensation is against the PL.
In Liverpool’s 2 games since playing Spurs, they have received 2 penalties, a red card in their favour and escaped a blatant second yellow.
I guess crying and screaming corruption really does work.
Best league in the world with the worst officials.

For those critiquing Onana, what do you want from him?
He doesn't create enough!
He's 4th in the PL in xA.
He doesn't pass it up the pitch!
Only 3 players with more long passes have a higher completion % (Silva, Rodri, Saliba)
Dyche doesn't want mids carrying the ball.
Everton in consecutive relegation battles + the emotional instability of Twitter = ☠
Just words on a screen, but together we control the whole narrative.
A psychological analysis of a mental minefield.
