IF NECESSITY is the mother of invention, then there's no doubting who the father figure is at Goodison Park just now.

David Moyes virtually had to perform his pre-season preparations in-season, so overdue were the new additions last summer.

After a matter of weeks, the side he candidly admitted weren't ready to win matches, miraculously found itself doing so as a matter of routine.

EVERTON have issued an emphatic denial over a report that club chairman Bill Kenwright is today flying to meet an overseas buyer lined up to takeover the club.

The report suggested Mr Kenwright was hoping to seal a deal worth around £180m and talks were in an advanced stage.

The buyer was reported not to be Indian billionaire Anil Ambani who was linked to the club last month.

WHEN some men reach a certain age, they fall out of love with football.

Instead they become fully paid-up members of the 'In My Day' Society.

That's the place for disgruntled folk who used to worship the game and their teams - but who no longer bother with either. Or at least they pretend they no longer care.

You know the type . . .

'It's not a sport any more . . . it's all about money, money, money.
