the saying goes something like "if you're using a VPN for free, they're making money off of you." Not sure if it's accurate, but makes some sense; why would someone create a VPN for free?

I use and pay for Private Internet Access. THink it's $30 a year.

Personally I'd probably get the train, going from one city centre to another can get quite complicated when you're driving. If you'd rather drive though, that wouldn't be a problem either, I've done Liverpool to Birmingham and back on a week night when I've been to watch Everton play Villa.

You can go straight from Liverpool Lime Street to Birmingham New Street by train every half an hour and it generally takes about 1 hour 45 minutes. Here's an example of available trains that you could get.

As for stuff to do in Birmingham, I don't really know it very well tbh. It's the second biggest city in the country though so I'm sure there's something.

I've never used getmein.com but it seems to be connected to ticketmaster and I've gone through ticketmaster before and that's been fine.

For anybody with the Amazon Fire Stick or TV, you can download Mobdro here. This will take you to the download. Don't think it's available for iOS, just Android.

I can help you sideload the app onto your fire stick from android if you need help.

> racist

In a team with Ashley Williams, Yannick Bolasie, Idrissa Gueye, Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Ademola Lookman, Theo Walcott, Cuco Martina, Beni Baningime and formerly star Romelu Lukaku, you have to wonder why would anyone even root for Everton if they're racist. Maybe they'd rather choose Burnley or Athletic Bilbao or something (not that Burnley are intentionally divisive) but you ain't getting any more 'pure' teams or something like that according to their 'standards'.

I have the issue with a lot of games. They sell wrist bands with a piece of hard plastic, that are supposed to hit pressure points in your wrist. Maybe it's a placebo effect, but the ones I have seem to work a bit.

I'm really curious to see how we set up. 4-3-3 makes some sense (picking between Gueye/Onana/Doucs/Iwobi week to week), but Coady is supposedly much better in a back 3. But a 3-4-3 might be wasting our new midfield depth if we only start two of them.

So maybe we'll move to a 3-5-2 (which Thelwell wrote a book on) and drop one of the front 3? But that seems counter-intuitive for a team struggling to score. I'm really not sure

Kevin Thelwell literally wrote a book on the 3-5-2 and Frank Lampard is known to be flexible in systems. I'm trying to find an article I read that said Lampard wanted to move to a three-at-the-back formation in 2022/23. If I find it I'll edit this post.

Case 1: talking only about the PL from the first comment https://www.reddit.com/r/Everton/comments/va792l/should_we_offer_yerry_mina_a_oneyear_extension/ic2hsso/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3

Case 2a: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cartoon-Introduction-Statistics-Grady-Klein/dp/0809033593/ref=asc_df_0809033593/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310852528311&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=5131045524651961697&hvpone=&hvptwo=&amp... why it’s obviously thick as fuck to include substitute minutes

Case 2b: even if you DO wrongly include substitute minutes no player has contributed more points to us staying up than Mina, the maths still checks out

Please read through this thread, and then buy these: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cartoon-Introduction-Statistics-Grady-Klein/dp/0809033593/ref=asc_df_0809033593/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=310852528311&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=5028704683460573107&hvpone=&hvptwo=&amp... and https://www.amazon.co.uk/Brilliant-Activities-Reading-Comprehension-Year/dp/1783170700/ref=mp_s_a_1_1_sspa?crid=3HD3RZA38URDN&keywords=reading+comprehension+year+1&qid=1655202188&sprefix=reading+comprehension+year+1%2Caps%2C116&sr=...

Happy to explain to you for the 40th ish time what points contribution is and why it’s relevant once you’ve got through, but there’s not much point until you do

I can’t waste my time on someone who (1) still doesn’t understand what ppg is and (2) thinks it’s meaningless

This was probably a poor choice on your part. We're crap, and we're in a fight for our life right now.

If you want to know about our history, have a look for this book: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Everton-Miscellany-Mark-OBrien/dp/1907637761

last 4 minutes we did pretty well

prior to that it's been an absolute shitfest. Crushed by Soton and Hull and even fucking Newcastle, beaten by Stoke at Goodison looked absolutely pathetic in all of them. No defense, no offense, so what's left? passing it to the keeper until it gets stolen.

Scored 3 lucky goals against QPR in the only time our offense has looked potent at all, minus West Ham. Got absolutely fucked over at City but I'm seeing that that was the last match you saw.

Oh yeah, look up Jelavic's goal from the Hull 2-0. Watch as Barry literally does not move as he plays Jelly onside by a mile, then watches him stroll past.

Been pretty negative around here, honestly you picked the wrong time to leave!

My shining light*: Mo Besic looks pretty good, lot of potential, but he's been playing with Barry (shite) as McCarthy's been out. Baines actually looked pretty good in midfield (a la Lahm) at Newcastle. Great assist to Mirallas.

Overall: shite, shite, and more shite. Everybody's hoping that we bottomed out at Hull and that this late Rom equalizer (he looked really good the whole match btw) will lift us out of the funk. Unfortunately it's City next, so not a whole lot to hope for there, more looking forward to the replay on Tuesday. Let's fucking win that, how about.

unrelated: What'd you do in Australia? I know nothing about it, I'm curious.

*this is a reference to the Worst Idea of All Time, a podcast in which two New Zealanders watch Grown Ups 2 every week for a year. Watching Everton play has been not entirely unlike that experience, which is why I think I'm identifying with them so much.

I'm pretty sure the official Everton Android app has a match centre thing on it, but I'm not sure how good that is. If you can get to the official website's match centre on your phone you may also be able to listen to the audio commentary on there, but I'm not sure how well it works on mobile browsers.

If I'm out and about I use Twitter on my phone to keep up to date, so if you have it it's worth following @Everton and @efc_andylewis. The main app I use is the Sky Sports Football Score Centre which has minute-by-minute text coverage of loads of most Premier League and Football League games, as well as Champions League and Europa matches. You set Everton as your favourite and it gives you a little league table, upcoming fixtures and live score in the main page of the app.

You'll probably look like a dick. There are very few situations where you can pull it off. Stay casual.

Last week's Match of Their Day (Ian Wright picks 3 matches) featured our nail-biting relegation day fixture against Wimbledon from 1994 - https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000hk60/match-of-their-day-series-1-episode-3. Expires by midnight.

So this remains my favourite Everton book (Which the author had to update because to finish on a positive note, he points to a kid coming out of the academy called Rooney...) and it's from probably about 2002ish so misses the last twenty years but, what have you really missed over the last twenty years at EFC?

I think it would be tight trying to get from Goodison to the arena in Birmingham in that time, but not impossible. It might be worth driving if you're going straight from Goodison to the show.

If you do choose the train, here's a map of the Merseyside rail network. Kirkdale is the nearest station to Goodison (blue line just above the green loop) or Sandhills has the 'soccerbus' running people back and forth to the ground. It might be worth looking at a taxi from Goodison to Lime Street to make sure you catch the train. You need to get the train from Lime Street (on the green loop) back to Birmingham. Birmingham International seems to be next to the venue, this is a 2 hour 10 minute train ride from Lime Street.

Admittedly, I don't know how reputable this source is, but to me it sounds like he and Ajax have terminated his contract by mutual consent, that is to say that Ajax would not be due any compensation. The Guardian would appear to agree

I also live in TX! I've been to Goodison the last two years.

I've used hotels.com and got decent hotels for $60 a night last minute close to city center both trips.

I'd also recommend using StubHub over EvertonUSA for sure.

Cavern Club Saturday night would be a fun time.

EasyJet and RyanAir (plus other budget airlines) make it cheap to get to London (and possibly Liverpool) from most of Europe.

Try Skyscanner as I believe they include search results for budget airlines: http://www.skyscanner.com/

Windscribe VPN gives you 10GB/month free and has a UK option. I'm sure there are others that are just as good.

It's only a 4 min video. Here are the key points that I heard Ancelotti make:

The idea is to always play attacking football
DCL and Richarlison complement each other well, and in his opinion as forwards they're both best suited to play in a partnership
His opinion is that 4-4-2 is the best defensive formation
He's happy Gomes is back, but not going to push him too hard too fast
Likes Holgate's line-splitting passing ability, thinks that's important for a team to have in the back because...
Likes a team that is able to play direct when it's an option
Only reason to hold/possess the ball is you're waiting for a player to get free to attack

They're just like little ammonia smelling salts, they're used a lot in powerlifting,

If you pause the video at the right time these are almost exactly the same thing he was holding:

Indeed! I'd highly recommend his book but looks like it trades for over £70 these days https://www.amazon.co.uk/Whats-Name-Everton-Mark-OBrien/dp/1903158540

I've been told *cough* there are numerous streaming sites that provide high-quality EPL feeds for all games, which certain people recommend that you view while using a VPN (ExpressVPN is very good). There are some annoying popups and/or [X] boxes you have to click before the feed will begin, but otherwise the feeds are spot-on.

I'd suggest an internet search of "Top 10 sites to watch live soccer tv" to find a list of sites that provide feeds. I've heard all of them will provide you the games you desire with equal quality.

This past Christmas, on my phone using the NBC Gold app with NordVPN wasn't allowing me to access Premier League games while in the UK despite being connected to a US VPN server. Haven't tried on a PC yet though. I'll sort something out before the league starts back up. I may need to find a different VPN provider...

I enjoyed this history of the Premier League: "Premier League: A History in 10 Matches"

For all the accusations of greed levelled at its well-remunerated players - and the gripe that it is dominated by an elite of wealthy clubs - the FA Premier League has proved a huge success in footballing and commercial terms since its inaugural season of 1992-3. In this book, journalist Jim White recalls ten epic clashes which represent the rise and rise of English football's top flight. Amazon link

He highlights 10 different matches at different eras of the Premier League - it does get annoying to see a lot of Manchester United mentions but that also speaks to their dominance in the league. The book also looks at a few matches that led to or followed the downfall of once-prominent clubs. (Leeds United, Portsmouth, etc.) It's worth reading and the nice part is you can just read the chapter for each match at a leisurely pace.

Just got home for the weekend to visit the family (mostly the dogs). Class and my first time living alone has been going for 3 weeks now, I'm having a good time. Eagerly waiting for the fall. Not just for that though, for Everton as well.

My personal life is still a shambles though and will probably continue to be for a while. Girlfriend 3 of the year went like the first two, not well at all. I should just chill at this point.

I turn mine inside out and was it inside one of these...

Then hang it to dry. My Lukaku home kit has been through half a dozen washes so far and still looks great.
