I gave Mcneil man of the match. Thought he was industrious and played well. Might be key in the derby next week

Would I have taken a point at the start? I think all of us would, especially coming from behind twice. Yes the point keeps us in the mix for European football, but to get 5th and CL it’s a game we really needed to win. Started both halves really poorly which ultimately cost is the game.

Fact is Everton FC should be beating Brentford. I hope in the years ahead we push away from them.

Agree with the sentiment - but they've been a much better run club than us for a few seasons now - we are only just catching up.

That was ok point away hope to see more of George to see if he’s worth keeping

what’s the verdict, good point or opportunity missed?

Yes and that’s what it is, due to a bunch of crap owners we are where we are, but the potential for this club with owners who are willing to put the effort in and get it right is huge.

Come on Fulham, give us a proper carrot for next weekend’s game.

We don’t like carrots

Every time there is one dangled we give it to someone else

It’s an opportunity missed to move ahead of those competing for a European place. Imo.

Yes

For me, a good point as i think we can play so much better, and getting a very late point instead of none is better than nothing off course. Saying that if KDH scores as he should a minute or 2 before we go 2-1 behind you never know what may happen

Brentford have been a much better team than us for a good few seasons now

 

[Glasshalffull]

Well, it was an ok game, I suppose, but I do long for the old, tranquil, days under Dyche when we'd have gone to Brentford knowing we'd lose, have duly lost 2 or 3 nil, and not have had a shot of goal or more than 3 consecutive passes. No need for all of today's wondering, hoping, initial disappointment, joy and shouting and cheering nonsense. Them wuz the days.....

 

[Ufotone]

From behind twice to earn a point.

Seen better, seen worse.

Fair play lads….

EFC

 

[Titus Shambles]

Why have been watching Mcneil jog about with George on the bench?

Because only one of them has accused the club of damaging his mental wellbeing

 

[TimHowardsBeardJuice]

Brentford has more to rue from the draw - it’s a fair result but we are happier with the point than they are
