    I once spent a week on a "philosophy" type event (I know!) and the one thing that sticks with me was the examination around "ego" being the single biggest obstacle to progress (ego in its fullest sense). You see it in a lot of former players who think they are "billy big bollocks" having played in the unrealistic goldfish bowl that is (particularly) the Premier League. Unsworth's ego (currently manifesting itself as stubborness and playing the blame game) will be his undoing. He will not like what he is experiencing one iota at the moment, because his ego isn't being fed (ego is a very greedy feeder). He will walk soon in my opinion.

     

    When he does, get Peter Clarke in - if you are going to allow someone to "cut their teeth" at this level, I think PC would be ideal. I've said before we have gone for all our eggs in the ex Everton basket - and that let's hope the basket doesn't turn out to be a case. Watching brief.

    Makes you fully appreciate what we had in Pete Wild,

    Both the past and future would have been so much brighter, oh to be treated fair and proper, costs nothing at all.

    I've heard we've got Everton youngsters lined up for January, Dobbin currently at Derby but not fancied there and Tyler Onyango. 

    I did mention that we'd become Everton's B team but you'd like to think the quality of the youngsters coming through, would be more than capable of improving our lot.
