Spurs draw (we usually draw with them)
WBA draw I predict West Brom will score a scrappy goal from a corner and will then park a fleet of buses...we grab a late equaliser
Hull win (the players respond to the disappointment of the Pullis game)
Liverpool loss (sorry, but their contract with the Devil always exercises itself in this game)
United I'll sit on the fence and say draw

So 6 points
 
Tottenham - Draw (1) *Going to this so would love to Win, but they are very strong at Home.
West Brom - Win (3)
Hull - Win (3)
Liverpool - Win (3) *Crazy feeling that I never had about a Derby before
United - Loss (0) *Narrow defeat due to bad Refereeing

10 points, I would take right now.
 
Can proper tell how the years of watching Everton have battered down expectations though, best form team in the league this year, beaten Arsenal and absolutely hammerd City during that run and people can't see past 6 at best out of the next 15.
 

Will have to beat a top 6 side away from home. This will simply be the test of whether this side is any different to every other Everton side that have liked to turn up in the spring at home when the season is dead. If we're serious about getting top 6, or ever changing the bottling mentality, we need to win one of those games.
 
The pessimist in me would suggest:
Spuds - would take a point
West Bus - Pullis bores a point
Hull - Surely a win
Trophy Dodgers - we all know don't we
Manure - unlucky defeat

So that's 5 points. But hold on, our current form of 6 wins and 3 draws from 9 games suggests we're not easy to best at the moment. I'll put my feet firmly in the 'take one game at a time' camp and just enjoy the ride, hopefully.
 

Only thing certain is we'll have a better idea of where we are

Spurs game is a huge one - even more so if the rs drop points today to Leicester )which i think they will do)

Beat spurs and we sit 6 behind them, and with the rs and Arsenal playing each other before we kick off against spurs then could close the gap on one of those to 2 or 3 points and at worst 4 behind united still

That would build a massive amount of momentum and belief with back to back home games to follow

Even mor - the following week sees the FAcup games with only only City and the rs playing that weekend and the loveable neighbour the day after us as well so a huge chance to really pile up pressure and join the group.

OFC if we go an d get thumped by spurs then it all looks a bit of a 7th place at best season, lets see what happens eh
 
Just got to concentrate on the next game, take one game at a time and hope we keep just going a long nicely picking u the points, next up spurs will be a tough game but strangely I feel quite confident which is weird for me because I hate playing spurs away.
 
About 7. Main thing is we beat West Brom and help consolidate 7th.

Dunno mate, biggest game of the season is the spurs one, due to the way the fixtures are and the posponements for teams above us etc, a win there would build a massive amount of momentum and put pressure on everyone from city down
