Vogts Keen To Tempt Davie Back For Scotland

Blue Kipper's 'North of The Boarder Spy', Tartan Toffee Davie says:" Scottish manager is seeking talks with Davie Weir to try & persuade him to play again for Scotland". Davie seen his arse & said he wouldn't play for Scotland again after being publicly blamed for a Scotland's crap performance against some nomarks earlier in the season. (31/05/03)

As Long As Everton Score

Typical of Davie Weir to say he doesn't care who scores as long as we win.

Davie said :" I think it just skimmed my head on the way past and I'm not really sure what happened after that to be honest. It went in the back of the net and that's the most important thing. I would be disappointed if it wasn't awarded to me, but it's a goal for Everton and it doesn't really matter who scored it."(15/04/03)

Davie on the Score Sheet

Everton played Spanish Second Division side Jerez in a behind closed doors friendly in Cadiz yesterday. We lost 3-1. Davie scored our only goal.

Moyesy says: “We organised the game just to give the boys a break from training and it was a worthwhile exercise. The lads who haven’t been involved much recently, such as Lee Carsley and Mark Pembridge needed the game and it breaks things up a bit. It’s been a good week. The weather’s been fantastic, the training pitches are perfect and I think the lads are benefiting from the change of scenery.” (06/03/03)

Booking is Costly

Yesterday's booking against Bolton, means Davie will miss the Spurs game on Sunday, 12th January 2003, as this was up his fifth booking of the campaign. Tough to take, as Davie pulled out of the tackle & the player went on, only for the ref to pull him back. (29/12/02)

That's Just The Way It Is

That one game suspension has cost Davie his place in the side. He is hoping that if he continues the hard work during the week it won't be long before he is back playing.

“If you've got players coming in doing their job, then they're going to stay in the team. That's the way a football club should be run and that's the way this club's being run at present and I hope it continues to be like that.How you perform in a match is obviously the priority, but the manager is having a look to see how everyone's performing over the week and that will have an influence on his decision.”(16/11/02)

Moyesy Defends Skipper

Bobby Robson accused Davie of elbowing Robert in the mush. Robert sustained a fractured cheeckbone in the collision.
Moyesy says: "David is not that type of person. I've looked at the incident again. It has been brought to our attention but I think the reaction of the players on the pitch was very telling. Not one player reacted in a way that suggested there was anything untoward had happened. I don't believe any professional footballer goes out to break another player's cheeckbone & we are happy that there has not been any wrong-doinf in this instance." (09/11/02)

A Bad Week at Black Rock

Davie has had a bad week. Firstly he had to endure the Scotland farce against the Faroes. And worse was to follow when his International boss Bertie Vogts, the cheeky little shit, starts to blame him and Christian Dailly for the performance.

Being the top man he is Davie will not get into a war of words. He said: "I am disappointed it’s not nice to read things like that, especially for your family, but I have put it into perspective and that is all that matters. I am going to keep quiet. Plenty of people have said enough already and I will just keep my mouth shut.” "I don't want to talk about Scotland but I'll speak about Everton."

Then on Wednesday night he gave the pen away for blowing on another little shit Pahars.

Davie said:"I just didn't think it was a penalty.I was conscious when the ball came across that I couldn't foul Pahars because I knew he would be looking for it - and I didn't foul him, or I felt I didn't. I honestly couldn't believe it. I thought the referee was going to give a free-kick to us, but instead that's decided the game."

"But everyone's still upbeat. If you are not creating chances and you are getting beat you start to worry, but we are creating chances. The players are good enough to score them, we just didn't get that bit of luck we needed at Southampton" (13/09/02)
