Everton haven't done well with transfers in the past few years, have they? Allan was never a 20 million pound player, but good for him he made some cash in England and now will probably make even more in UAE.

It wasjust mentioned on the Wolves thread about Tevez.
Made me think 2006-2007 season upfront we had:
Tevez, Zamora, Harewood, Cole, Sheringham and an injured Ashton.

The days of two upfront....

Just been having a conversation about the time hard core porn was accidently played on the TV screens at the Boleyn either prematch or at half time. Got a feeling it was against Spurs, does anyone else remember this?
