The Royal Blue Podcast: The Hill Dickinson Hangover and the January Gamble

EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee 

In the latest episode of the Royal Blue Podcast, Ian Croll is joined by Chris Beesley and Gavin Buckland to dissect a frustrating week for Everton Football Club.

The panel starts with the "final word" on Tuesday night’s 2-1 collapse against Bournemouth. After leading through an Iliman Ndiaye penalty, how did the Blues allow the game to slip away in just four minutes? The lads discuss the costly misses from Thierno Barry and the late red card for Jake O’Brien that summed up a miserable night at the waterfront.

Also on the agenda: Everton’s January Transfer Strategy. With the transfer window closed and only Tyrique George arriving on loan, the trio explores Everton’s strategy. Was the lack of signings a calculated risk or a missed opportunity that will haunt the club’s European ambitions?

The lads turn to home form in a broader sense: Why has Hill Dickinson Stadium become so hospitable to visitors? We look into the alarming home form and the growing concerns regarding the atmosphere, debating whether it’s the stadium design, the scheduling, or simply the performances on the pitch.

And finally, David Moyes is back under the microscope. Is he being stubborn or systematic? The panel questions his recent team selections—specifically the persistence of playing players out of positions when other options are available. Is Moyes being stubborn to a fault

Royal Blue: The Craven Cottage Comeback

EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/efc Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee

In this latest episode of the Royal Blue Podcast, Ian Croll is joined by Joe Thomas and Connor O’Neill to dissect a massive three points for Everton following their 2-1 victory over Fulham.

While the scoreboard shows another vital away win for the Toffees, the trio dives into why the result didn't tell the full story of the afternoon. It was a classic game of two halves: Fulham dominated the opening 45 minutes, leaving the Blues lucky to be within touching distance, before a tactical shift and half-time substitutions saw Everton seize control of the second period to ultimately come out on top.

Can the Blues maintain this momentum as the race for the top six heats up?

Join Ian Croll, Joe Thomas, and Gav Buckland as the Royal Blue Podcast turns its attention to a crucial Saturday afternoon trip to Craven Cottage.

Everton arrive in West London as one of the Premier League’s most resilient sides, currently unbeaten in four league games and having suffered just one defeat in their last seven. With the Blues breathing down the necks of the top eight, this clash with Fulham is more than just a mid-table meeting—it’s a direct battle for European authority against a side sitting just one place above them in 9th.

The panel also dives into the aftermath of a chaotic Deadline Day. With the loan signing of Tyrique George from Chelsea officially in the building, the big question remains: will David Moyes hand the 19-year-old an immediate debut on the banks of the Thames?
