Comparison to 1998-99.

[Neiler]

Wish we had Dacourt now.

 

[Gwladysstreetlad]

No , he was intimidated by Tranmere soddin Rovers instead !

He wasn't intimidated by them. We just had a truly terrible side and he was a truly terrible manager, even so if you played that game again with those same teams 99 times out of 100 our donkeys would of won.

Me too Eggs,there are numerous EFC occasions I wish I could erase from my mindlol

Trouble being if you erased them all from your mind you wouldn’t have much of a mind left.

 

[twoblue]

Yep. We had Ball who looked like a great player coming through. Everything was [Poor language removed] and then Jeffers and Campbell appeared.
Felt like we Didnt score in the first five home matches.
Anyone than thinks Walter was better than Moyes is seriously deluded

Just leave me with the good times Eggy,not enough of them granted,but it would be great to erase the tortuous times!!!

 

[Dario Terracotta]

Wish we had Dacourt now.

Very good player,so unlucky with referees,seemed to get booked every game at one point for virtually nothing,always seemed either injured or suspended!

 

[twoblue]

The team contained dacourt, materazzi along side Gary speed, Don Hutchinson. We actually had some decent players but nothing good to watch on the pitch.
Highlight of the season was materazzi melt down after being sent off against forest.

 

[MACCA75]

Collins was a massive let down.

Yep,as I said originally the parallels are very similar mate,we have some very decent players this season but they are for one reason or another just not gelling,ps wasn't materrazi sent off v Sheffield weds at goodison when he was in tears at the side of the pitch?

 

[kithnou]

I actually enjoyed watching us back then, that’s the difference.

youthful naivety

 

[ToffeeTim]

Only 7 points ahead of drop zone now lol

 

[Lad from Vienna]

No , he was intimidated by Tranmere soddin Rovers instead !

And they didn't even have the likes of Enoch Showunmi ir Steve McNulty in their squad back then. How pathetic is that?

 

[mmmmsnouts]

I wonder who the Gazza signing is in this parallel. Don’t say Rooney; he’s actually been helpful.

Only 7 points ahead of drop zone now lol

Exactly WBA, and Bourmouth were six points to be taken - Sam played 9 defensive players - we got one point !
V ManU played attacking wingers got beat easily equaling no logic!

3 more wins and we are safe I feel. Not going down.
