Imagine the wonderful food on the concourse.
When I was young I said to my mum, 'are the hills in the distance America?'

Yes this is true as a barometer of where the team is but is it a good barometer of where the club is and how it is progressing. A swan can still look beautiful but if its legs are thrashing away all over the place it is never going to get anywhere.....get my drift (a bit like the swan really) ;)

Looks like Everton are the next club to be taken over by Americans. Their fans hounded out a local, fan owner because he couldn't financially compete with Chelsea and Man City, be careful what you wish for. Americans have ruined every club they've gone to, Villa, Liverpool, Sunderland, Man Utd (tee hee), Fulham.

'Hounded out' is a bit strong.

Club after club is selling our heritage abroad, turning our clubs into commodities rather than community based entertainment. Football's in rude health, apparently :(

Didn't they run an aeroplane above Goodison Park telling him to go? I know it will only be an idiot minority but some of their fans have been disgraceful towards him. Personally I would love to be in Everton's position, but sometimes that isn't enough for the majority of the modern football fan.

Sad, but the only good owners still left in the PL are probably Stoke, WBA and Swansea.

I don't recall anything like that TBH, if it happened then they've short memories whoever it was, esp as Everton are the longest 'serving' top tier team there is. And Kenwright has been a fan forever.
