Ray/Everton,
its not just a case of a north/south divide, especially as Ray looks after Yorkshire. Everton originates from err..........Anfield i think
I have argued against the north/souht factor with JPM and spoke my mind at the AGM that i wouldn't expect someone from darn sarf to organise stuff in the north.
North/south divide is just red herring, it is not the root problem of ongoing concern.
