Is supporting Everton a life of misery - or celebration? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Everton's unbeaten start to the Premier League season and progress in the Carabao Cup has prompted a minor outbreak of something rarely felt among their fanbase in recent times - optimism. Guarded optimism, understandably, but the mood has shifted somewhat since the fury that followed a badly botched transfer window, typified by a shambolic final day that left manager David Moyes with only 18 senior outfield players.

Liverpool's win must be placed in the context of
