The Derby Tifo

[RomanReigns]

Tifos are prime Kopite nonsense.

Please bin this sort of behaviour.
We are Everton, and better than this.

i bet you give birthday cards to people which are blank inside

I thought it was alright. Nobody else really does it. Think Villa have done a couple. So why not.

A day later and time to reflect on it.

I know it’s the modern football world, but it’s not for me and I don’t think it’s for Everton either.

All well and good saying we’re the originals but it’s another stage-managed jibe at the RS and we’re left looking like idiots. Maybe next time we can have some of them stupid quotes Stubbs used to come out with before derbies?

Pre-kickoff it should be all about lighting the blue touch paper, letting them on the pitch know the privilege that they have and what we demand in return. I don’t need that tool on the PA telling me to hold up a card now.

Go back to banners and flags if that’s what you’re gonna do.

The tifo is nothing to do with football prowess so it's not the tifo that makes us look like idiots if we lose.

That's down to the manager and players who fail us in derbies.

If they were about derby predictions they'd be embarrassing, but they're not. They're about restoring some much needed identity for the club and positioning us as an important civic institution. No one else will do that for us so the 1878 group do it. All power to them.

The playlist etc before it was spot on.

Honestly as always Everton let this fanbase down again, how much longer will this go on and how much longer will we just accept it?

quite a few clubs do it now, sunderland did this for their derby game

We couldn't do one like that as if we had to potray some sort of reality we would have to have ours running away from Liverpool in a blind panic.

I thought it was excellent and the coverage of it was really positive. Brilliant effort by all of those who make these things happen

A tifo of Moyes hiding behind a couch with a Liverpool manager (ANY Liverpool manager) peering through the windows looking to batter him.

Get ready for the tifo at the pit next season with 31 years all over it.
I think it wasn’t needed to be honest, a step too far.

That's nonsense, and belief in this fallacy is one of the reasons why Everton's home games are so quiet—or, at worst, have a toxic atmosphere.

it’s part of the game. I tell you what why don’t we care more about the club ending that 31 years without a trophy.

What will the reds say then?

Not a great deal.

I’m not a fan and I thought that yesterday’s images were setting us up for a load of Kopite schadenfreude given the result.

However, the younger generation and the global TV audience probably love them so they are likely to continue.

I do think we should just focus on the Everton aspect and our place in the city rather than baiting Kopites with images of the Beatles in blue scarves when the original photo had red scarves so just don’t include it.

If we had something to shout about in terms of winning trophies in the recent past then maybe they become more appropriate.

I thought the noise levels yesterday at least until they scored were absolutely incredible

 

[banno]

Thought the tifo looked brilliant

Appreciate they cost an absolute fortune, especially the machine - so an idea for future ones could be smaller/player specific ones - like this;
