Saw this over at My Waterloo Rugby, hope it's the first of many posts :
So why did I fall out of love with the game? The game started to lose its mojo a few

visiting away games ceased to exist, many of these newer club grounds we found ourselves visiting
lacked charm, many purely sterile.

Last night was pretty depressing but loved this quote from Eusebio
Eusebio on Goodison Park: "Sorry, I don't speak good English. But today for me, for my
family, it's a good day, for Benfica to play here. This stadium for me is the best stadium in my
playing life.

Everton are depressingly beatable at the moment but ultimately it's not surprising when our
treatment room xi is, apart from needing a keeper, looking fantastic. Look at the team we had
missing for the weekend against Bolton
Everton Treatment Room XI - 26/10/09
Hibbert - Yobo - Jagielka - Baines
Pienaar - Arteta - Neville - Bilyaletdinov
Yakubu - Vaughan

Last weekend I phone the Danny Baker Show in order to try and save Goodison and Blundellsands (home
of Everton FC and Waterloo RUFC respectively) from his totalitarian demolition crews....I was less
than successfull but Hey, it was early on a Saturday morning, I didn't do too bad.

Just a very quick notes, a mate of mine is off to Lisbon tomorrow with T-shirt highlighting the
continuing hopes we all have for the safe return of Madelaine McCann.
We also have issued a special purple 3rd kit in memorial for little Rhys Jones (and as a fund
raiser for the city-wide Liverpool Unites charity).

Interesting trivia question there "Who were the first Liverpool FC players to play for
England?". It is of course a trick question because 4 players of Liverpool Football Club (as in
Rugby Football) took part in the very first rugby international in 1871.

Good old Tim :
Everton midfielder Tim Cahill dedicated his winning goal in the
Europa League game against BATE Borisov to the victims of Tuesday's Pacific tsumani.
The Australian international mimed rowing a canoe after scoring in
the second half of the match in Belarus.

Great to see Yakubu score last night and especially nice to see him make a beeline to Mick
Rathbone (Everton's head physio) and hug him. Pretty good goal too...he just makes goal scoring
look so easy.
Hull looked very poor it has to be said...very funny to see Barmby get mugged in the build-up to
our 4th goal.
