Greg O'Keefe

ECHO reporter and Everton fan Greg O'Keeffe was six when the Blues last won the title. But with a European tour on the horizon and another season of drama at Goodison Park, he is a determined optimist.

EVERPOOL

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 26, 2008 3:37 PM

IT’S the age-old pub debate over which players from either side of Stanley Park would make a Merseyside representative XI.
Me and new ECHO Reds blogger Luke Traynor (he’s that rare sort of RS who is neither bitter or blinkered) decided to throw ours into the mix and ask for your suggestions.
Both our teams are based on the players’ form over the last 12 months. Here’s mine (excuse the early rush of Reds).

MAN OF THE MATCH

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 26, 2008 10:00 AM

MY HEART went out to the Setanta pundits last night.
Not to mention good old Ronnie Goodlass in the Radio Merseyside commentary box at Manchester City’s admirable Eastlands stadium.

HAVE YOU HEARD THE ONE ABOUT THE ENGLISHMAN, THE SCOTSMAN AND THE NIGERIAN?

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 25, 2008 10:01 AM

SOMETIMES, well most of the time, there is something reassuringly Scottish, miserable and phlegmatic about Davie Moyes.
It might be a cliche (more of those tricky buggers later), but I equate that sort of boss with success (Alex Ferguson, Strachan, Shankly etc...)

WHEN THE GOALS DRY UP

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 21, 2008 12:03 PM

FIRST up, apologies for the blogging absence. I’ve been a little bereft of inspiration this week.
I’m not exactly bursting with excitement about the game tonight, but it will be good to see Steven Pienaar hopefully bringing his brand of sexy footy back. (Even if he does look a bit like a teenage girl from Tokky. Credit to WSAG for that one).

PERCEPTION

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 12, 2008 10:05 AM

THERE is a piece which was posted on one of the message boards that has been playing on my mind.
It was written by a Southend fan and it’s about Everton’s habitual bad luck. So far, so random.

YAKKED OFF

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 8, 2008 10:58 AM

SO The Yak has gone AWOL after the African nations.
It’s not unusual for players to do a flit after that tournament but I still credited Yakubu with a bit more integrity than this.

DEGENERATES

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 7, 2008 8:45 AM

SOMEONE posted on Bluekipper about a depressing incident after the Blackburn game involving our away fans.
Group of fans walk past a McDonalds and see a lad with Down’s syndrome and his carer. They started to chant stuff about his condition which I’m not going to type.

KARMIC FOOTBALL

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 3, 2008 12:52 PM

WHAT goes around comes around.
Generally works out as a truism doesn't it? I hope so. I know it's pointless moaning really, and favourable and unfavoruable, fair and unfair decisions happen all the time in football.

TRANSFER DEADLINE

Posted by Greg O'Keeffe on February 1, 2008 9:15 AM

SO there were a few twists and turns to savour after all.
Stubbsy off to fire-up the condemned Derby dressing room and Anthony Gardner coming in on loan from Spurs.
