I am surprised Gibson is in a state where he can even play these legends matches. Good player but definitely had him down as weighing 30 stone post-retirement.

What? No Totti, de Rossi, Batistuta?
Not even Dacourt or Stekelenburg for a bit of 45mins for each side?
Poor form

I had done a little digging about his post-retirement life recently.Shogun wrote: Thu Aug 07, 2025 10:48 pm I am surprised Gibson is in a state where he can even play these legends matches. Good player but definitely had him down as weighing 30 stone post-retirement.
Sounds like he had a long-running sleeping pill addiction similar to Dele which developed after his knee injury in 2013. Had a bad seizure and had to come clean to his doctors and family about the addiction. Seems to have kicked it and is doing much better now.
It’s a shame we were robbed of his prime. Superb player, I don’t think the general football-watching public understands what an excellent deep lying playmaker he was when he was fit.

Obligatory Everton TV warning - the stream often fails. (I think thats about as politically correct as I can be with this one).

Is that Euro car park on Walter Street by the Titanic going to be usable tomorrow does anyone know? I know it will get rammed quickly but just want to know if its an option.

It'll be an option, it's built for matchday and concert use but I would think you'll need to be there at least 3 hours before kick off to get in.Audrey Horne wrote: Fri Aug 08, 2025 5:54 pm Is that Euro car park on Walter Street by the Titanic going to be usable tomorrow does anyone know?

Poor guy never got to play for the version of Everton that was fully comfortable being a dogshit hoofball team.
He might’ve been useful.
