[GetOverIt]

.....Exactly !

What has Theism ever done for the world?

[China Doll]

Did Rooney not come from Everton? If so, then I guess they discovered him maybe...

Really wishes there was a decent sports section to check that Rooney query

Well if you must know,
Founder members of the football League.
Founder members of the Premier League.
First club to be presented with the League Championship trophy.
First club to stage an F.A Cup final (1894).
First club on Meresyside to win the F.A Cup.
First club to construct a purpose built football stadium.
First club to appear in a T.V game (versus Arsenal)
Do you want me to go on? LOL
First club to play 4000 top flight games.
First club to amass 5000 league points.
First club to instal undersoil heating.
First club to wear numbered shirts 1 to 11.
I could bore myself with this stuff, LOL.
Why did'nt you just google it, I'd have cut and pasted the lot if I knew how.
I like your style though, what team do you support?

[GetOverIt]

Okay.................. But what good has theism ever done for the world ?

I was a Teenage Armchair Honved fan..... but now I'm not so sure..

[123everton]

I don't know who Honved are, or where they play but at least you're not one of the corporate 4 glory hunters, get yourself down there (you'll be welcomed) and support your boys. Outside of the big name brands are a myriad of teams (alas mine included) whose lights flicker and sometimes burn brighly dazzing all around them it's these flashes of brilliance and inspiration to be able to say "I was there" that drives us on. Let the glory hunters, shirt wearers and out of towners squabble amongst themselves, it's good that they have a hobby.
Without starting another list, music? Gospel music in particular is the foundation of Motown and Soul, my preferred genre.
Consider yourself forgiven, LOL!
What have Everton done for the world? I ask you...Mumble grumble murmur....

without checking everton, are you sure about 1894 as i thought it was played at the fallowfield stadium in manchester, it later became known as the reg harris stadium who i was lucky to see a few times

I was a teenage armchair Honved fan

by Half Man Half Biscuit

Woke up this morning, found myself in bed
My knowledge of the blues is somewhat nil
I�d dreamt about a love affair in far-off Budapest
The sort of thing that sugars every pill
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan

I went dans la cuisine in a bilinguistic mood
And Morphy Richards popped up with the goods
I was feeling �Hungary� both this morning and last night
And with an appetite like that you see the woods
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan

Is this the bit where we�re supposed to make guitars collide
And is this the bit where we release all that raw energy
And is this the bit where we go crashing through those barriers
Like what they do in music mags?

I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage, wham bam thank you
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan
I was a teenage armchair Honved fan

I've never heard of them or the song but I'm sure they're both very good.
I don't know where you're from, but support your local team, if there's none local (only non-league) then pick another second team you could be controversial and go for Leeds, if I was a neutral I'd be looking towards Preston or Huddersfield (as they're founder members) Carlisle are very big little club who with investment could compete in the Prem, or you could follow Everton... Don't start swearing, LOL.
I got my list off Blue Kipper, you may find that the other stadia had no football team playing at that ground as a home team.
I have to admit I won't lose any sleep over it if it's wrong

[pusspuss]

everton was correct, apologies

FINALS AT GOODISON PARK (EVERTON):
1894 NOTTS COUNTY 4 - 1 Bolton Wanderers

FINALS AT FALLOWFIELD (MANCHESTER):
1893 WOLVERHAMPTON W'RS 1 - 0 Everton

[123everton]

Are you a Wolves fan?
Because that was very eloquent dig at the mighty Blues I must say.
LMFAO.

Black Lace and Right Said Fred aside, those are quite possibly the worst lyrics I have ever set my eyes on.

Oh ye of little taste Octavius........

[Arlaquinn]

Everton is the only surviving team from the very first top league...... never relegated (if close to it a few times lol)!!!

viva le Toffies!
