Our Everton FC reporter Phil Kirkbride may be in Kenya preparing for the Blues' first pre-season friendly, while Adam Jones is deservedly putting his feet-up on holiday, but that hasn't stopped us from recording a Royal Blue podcast to kick-start your weekend in style. Sam Carroll - on his day off, no less - takes over the host's seat while Dave Prentice and Gavin Buckland are the guests, who get us under way with memories of pre-season past. Then comes the meaty stuff as Prenno tears into Unesco and their warning that it could take the city's World Heritage status away if developments including Everton's new stadium at Bramley-Moore Dock threaten the 'authenticity and integrity' of Liverpool's waterfront. Speaking of Bramley-Moore, Gav struggles to contain his excitement over the project before talk turns to the actual football, what Andre Gomes had to say at his press conference following his permanent move from Barcelona, and what position Prenno believes Marco Silva still needs to fill. Our trio also talk Phil Jagielka's move back to Sheffield United and pick our their favourite Everton kits after the Blues' latest offering was unveiled this week. Enjoy.
