If Martinez had any sense he'd use this media love-in against them as a motivational tact

It would truly be an unbelievable end Hibbert comes on for Coleman (who had to a knock) in the 89th minute at 0-0,corner comes in and Hibbert hits it like Jags did,but from the right flies into the top corner.I know it won't happen but we can dream.

Would be just as ridiculous as our Centre Half banging in a half volley into the top right hand of the net, right in front of The Kop, in the last minute of a derby..............

I hate the slippy smug [Poor language removed] as much as the next lad but team awards are bollocks when comparing individuals tbh. He could have had loads more trophies if he's ran away to Chelsea or Real Madrid.

He made a selfish decision albeit a correct one for him staying at Liverpool..... The fact he is not a very technically gifted player and poor tactically too would have stood out a mile at the very top clubs. I'm guessing he knew this deep down.

Just watched that advert. It's a load of jizz. Let them have a wankfest over the scruffy no bonce bellend. Come 7.20pm it will be about us winning 3-1 and the bellends at Sky jizzing over their new darling of the week Lukaku. Sky is infiltrated by the germ that is the red Shyte. He won't be getting no fond farewell, we will be RIGHT up for it make no mistake on Saturday evening.

Just seen that disgraceful Sky advert, we're at home & don't get a mention just a Stevie GBH promo video & even playing that show tune & it's at our place. Makes you sick. Probably made by their own tv channel. There are millions of reasons why I want us to smash the RS and this is another to add to the list. Let's hope the ref doesn't just think that it's all about them.

Please, Everton.

Please.

I wanna hear Martin Tyler holding back his tears and anger over an Everton win.

Haha love that from Martinez. They were desperately trying to get him to join in the Gerrard jizzfest and he completely shut them down. Well in.

Whoever that journal was should be banned from ever attending a press conference at FF or games at GP again and his editor told to teach his staff some God damned respect for the hosts.

Some of the journos (especially the local ones) get asked by the club to ask questions.

Just a thought.

What's the likelihood of us raining on Gerrard's parade?

Like a member of our staff suggested a journal harp on about Gerrard... don't make me laugh, even Everton aren't that stupid.

Around 1%.

To be honest though, we could have won the last 50 games in a row and I'd still be expecting a dry humping given the circumstances with him. He's absolutely bound to score.

Given how Martinez had answered the more general point. It wouldn't surprised me. He didn't harp on.

He just questioned whether Gerrard was in that bracket. Which Martinez straight batted pretty well.

Almost all the questions are pre approved by our press team.

We also give local journos questions to ask if we want to make specific things clear

Or, just like Sky, just like BT sport, just like the Echo, half of the journos there are right up the shytes brown hoop and expect Everton to bend over and wax lyrical about that dj bashing no bonce bellend and Everton didn't want to play.

Just a thought.
