I recently got asked by a friend of mine, who is not much a football fan, “Why are you obsessed with football, and why Everton in particular?” It wasn’t my friends intention to try and sound funny, it was a genuine curiosity type question and it really got me thinking. There are a million reasons why [...]

Movie Review: The Firm (2009)
Posted: 29/03/2010 in Movie ReviewsTags: Casuals, Football Hooligans, Movies, Nick Love, The Firm
I’ve been going to football matches for some time now, in fact since I was 7, and naturally being brought up on the Gwladys Street End of Goodison I have took a firm interest in the old stories of The Casuals and Hooligans and general Terrace Culture. I don’t condone the behavior, mind you, but I [...]

Sooo I’ve fallen behind in my blog again, my excuse this time…Laziness! Plain and simply have not been arsed to sit down and write a blog entry which means I have missed out on 3 Football Pre/Post Match and some various other little adventures I have found myself on with Kirsty and other friends. Weirdly [...]

So I explained my lack of blogging in my last post earlier today and I’m trying to generally catch up with everything that’s happened/been experienced/have an opinion on in my life. One of my recent adventures I was meant to blog about, but fell completely behind the track of time, was mine and Kirsty’s 2 [...]

Right, thing’s have been ever so slightly busy of late and I haven’t found time to blog about anything and have a tonne of things to blog about, personally I blame it on not having an iPhone at the moment at least with that I can blog on the go as I’m hardly ever at [...]
Match Review: EVERTON 5-1 ‘Ull City, Premier League 07/03/2010. Goodison Park

I had a hell of a lot of confidence in the Blues going into this one, but once I got to my seat and Vaughany’s (annoying Radio City DJ who sometimes compares at Everton when Rossy La isn’t there) dulcet tones announced the squad I shook my head in fear again. Moyesy seems to be convinced that [...]
