Royal Blue: The Everton FC Podcast

Michael Ball is perhaps aptly number three in our Goodison Park: My Home series as he joins Chris Beesley in the ECHO’s Royal Blue studio to look back on his playing career. The lifelong Evertonian explains how he grew up close to Goodison and attended matches regularly from a young age before coming up through the club’s junior ranks and making his senior debut as a 17-year-old under caretaker manager and fellow Scouser Dave Watson in 1997. Ball admits he defied doctor’s orders to play his part in a second ‘Great Escape’ under Howard Kendall the following year but after battling back from injury problems and Walter Smith signing a clutch of other left-backs to be named the club’s player of the year in 2001, he reveals that being told Everton had accepted transfer offers for him that summer when he thought he was on the brink of being offered a new contract with his boyhood team felt like “a dagger in the heart.” Now back watching the Blues from Goodison’s stands as a fan again and offering hard-hitting views as a weekly ECHO columnist, Ball’s candid opinions make for yet another passionate, lively and fascinating discussion.

Sean Dyche suffered his heaviest defeat as Everton manager as his side were torn apart 6-0 by a rampant Chelsea side at Stamford Bridge in their first fixture since being handed a new two-point deduction, their second sporting sanction of this season. Cole Palmer was the main architect of the Blues’ downfall as he ran riot with four goals on the night, the last of which came from the penalty spot while Nicolas Jackson and substitute Alfie Gilchrist netted the others but while their hosts were on form, the visitors made it too easy for them at times with some slack defending and a rare blunder from goalkeeper Jordan Pickford. Join Ian Croll, Chris Beesley and Connor O’Neill as they react to the Monday night’s disgraceful 6-0 defeat.  Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO’s Royal Blue YouTube channel.

Everton have been deducted a further two points after the outcome of their second Profit and Sustainability Rules case this season was announced. After Everton handed an initial 10-point deduction in November – the biggest sporting sanction in 135 years of English top flight football at the time – which was later reduced to six points on appeal, the club were charged with a second breach of Premier League PSR in mid-January; which began a 12-week disciplinary process. Everton set out its position in a three-day hearing last month amid what has been a process lacking in clarity or guidelines. The appeal panel for Everton’s first charge said that there had been two “legal errors” in the club’s original verdict but then the independent commission handling Nottingham Forest’s charge only handed them a four-point deduction for a breach 77% larger than Everton’s, acknowledged it could not be sure how even the reduced punishment handed to the Blues had been calculated.

Join Ian Croll, Chris Beesley and Gav Buckland as they look back at Everton’s 1-1 draw with Newcastle United. Substitute Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late penalty snatched what could be a precious point for Everton against Newcastle United at St James' Park after Alexander Isak had put the hosts ahead in the first half. Although the result ensured the Blues broke their club record for their longest-ever winless run in the Premier League, the result, taken in isolation, and coming after the Magpies had a second goal from Dan Burn ruled out for offside after a VAR check, was a significant positive.

Everton legend Derek Mountfield joins Chris Beesley in the Royal Blue studio for a stirring second episode of the Goodison Park: My Home, a series which begins the countdown to the club’s historic stadium move. Following on from Chris’ inaugural interview with Everton’s most-successful captain Kevin Ratcliffe last time out, the Wales international’s centre-back colleague enthusiastically shares his memories of the glory days with typical Scouse wit and humour. Mountfield lived the dream, going from the Gwladys Street terraces to being an integral part of Howard Kendall’s side and despite being a defender, he netted an incredible 14 goals in all competitions in 1984/85, the Blues’ greatest-ever season. #EFC #EvertonFC #EvertonFootballClub Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO’s Royal Blue YouTube channel.

With work on Everton’s new stadium scheduled to be completed by the end of the calendar year and the first team set to play their first competitive game by the banks of the Mersey in less than 18 months’ time, progress on the Blues’ future home is continuing at pace. The laying of the pitch should begin next month while more than 30,000 of the total 52,888 seats have already been installed in a process due to be completed this summer. The ECHO’s Everton correspondent Joe Thomas produced a special report this week having been on site last Monday and said: “There are two great aspects to this project that only hit me during my visit this week. One is the sense that the ground’s location is inescapable. “The second is just how much this new stadium will foster a sense of wider community.” Everton FC correspondent Joe Thomas reports from Liverpool's new waterfront landmark as the club's future home moves from dream to reality.  Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO’s Royal Blue YouTube channel.

To begin the countdown to Everton's historic stadium move, the Royal Blue podcast has launched a new series entitled Goodison Park: My Home and we kick things off in style with an exclusive interview as Chris Beesley speaks to the club's most-successful captain Kevin Ratcliffe. Lifelong Evertonian Ratcliffe recalls his early years as a fan, travelling from his home in North Wales with his father and other relatives to matches at Goodison Park before making the leap to becoming a first team player and then skipper himself in the glory days of the mid-1980s. As Howard Kendall's captain, the former defender offers his thoughts on lifting two League Championships at Goodison Park plus an FA Cup and European Cup-Winners' Cup while his tales of turning out in what is widely-considered to be the ground's greatest night in the latter competition as Everton recorded a famous 3-1 comeback win over Bayern Munich are priceless.  Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO’s Royal Blue YouTube channel.

Join Ian Croll, Joe Thomas and Gav Buckland as they discuss the latest on Everton and Nottingham Forest’s points deductions.  In what has become a farcical situation, the lads don’t hold back on the absurd explanation from the Premier League’s Independent commission . Nottingham Forest have received a four-point deduction for breaching Premier League spending rules. Forest were yesterday informed of the verdict, handed down by an independent commission after a two-day hearing earlier this month. The decision plunges the club deeper into the relegation fight, dropping them into the bottom three, one point behind Luton Town, who now sit above the dotted line. However , his farcical Premier League season has plummeted to new depths of absurdity, exposed in a single paragraph deep into the explanation of the four-point deduction handed to Nottingham Forest. #EFC #EvertonFC #Live Everton FC podcasts from the Liverpool ECHO’s Royal Blue YouTube channel.
