  • Talking the Blues Podcast, Bournemouth (h), Dyche, the alternatives, ownership, Moshiri & Textor

    Welcome to this week’s Talking the Blues Podcast with Andy and George Costigan (back, refreshed) and myself. We try to make sense of the Bournemouth game at the weekend before turning our attention to Sean Dyche, what the alternatives might be and if the manager position affects our ownership situation. We end with an update on Moshiri and John Textor’s attempts to purchase his shareholding.

  • Talking the Blues Podcast, Tottenham Hotspur (a), & a general update

    Welcome to this week’s Talking the Blues Podcast following on from our away trip to the Tottenham Hotspur stadium. Andy and I take a look back on a desperately disappointing afternoon for the Blues that travelled on a very wet bank holiday weekend, and for all the thousands of other Blues who looked on from elsewhere.

    No George this week as family duties and pleasures take precedent.

    Welcome to this week’s Talking the Blues Podcast with George and Andy Costigan. Peak close season allows us to turn our attention to England and the Euro’s. An interesting and wide ranging discussion ensues. We look at Everton’s PSR position, transfers and then move onto Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s comments.

  • Talking the Blues Podcast – Kevin Campbell R.I.P., the Friedkin takeover-edited

    In a lengthy and at times emotional tribute to Kevin Campbell, Talking the Blues Podcast tries to put into words the sense of loss surrounding such a beautiful man and soul in Kevin Campbell. We send our heartfelt condolences to his family and friends. We then switch to the most significant Everton related news since Moshiri took over 8 and a half years ago, the Friedkin takeover. Thanks for all your questions on social media – I think we answered them all.
