Match Thread Millwall v Everton, FA Cup 4th round, Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Rollo Tomassi]

I just don't think we're meant to have nice things. Maybe we were all horrible in a previous life.

Nobody deserves to endure this

Hope all the blues fans have a safe journey home..awful long trudge home after having to put up with that tripe again

Seriously I was shocked. I'm in the normal high range 124/70 not bad for 67. I act like a complete knob when we play but seeing what effect watching this cack has me seriously looking ato what to do next. Thing is that it's ingrained into me now.
Everton you b******s.

That's the REAL Everton curse.. it's like a chuffing great anchor round your neck, forever.

@AndyC do I have to vote in this, we were crap?

I'll leave it to the conscience of each and every reader/watcher/fan.
Right now, I'm still numb and disbelieving that I didn't swear in that report

Can you imagine the likes of Cahill, Carsley, Gough putting in a shift what we witnessed tonight. Don’t get me wrong they weren’t world beaters, but they certainly didn’t lack desire of the current side. There is no leadership or accountability throughout the whole team. An absolute shambles of gutless footballers.

Ferguson, Horne, Weir ,Arteta the list goes on they all have more desire than the current shambles of a squad.

Especially after the issues before hand as well.

Others have mentioned that it's only at Premier League grounds, which is true, yet then it's not even and fair across the board in that aspect as it's not at all.

In the third round, we did not have it against Lincoln and neither did Southampton or Chelsea in their respective games; therefore, as I mentioned, it's selective.

In later rounds of the cup, if a non-PL team is drawn at home against a PL team does that mean that the fixture won't have VAR? Or will it then be acceptable?

It's been set up poorly hasn't it, but the fact TV camera's are all over the game then there are no excuses for me, Prem ground or not.

Got to be a level playing field for all though hasn't it, 3rd round onwards all games VAR.

Please disregard Snides I never want to see him in an Everton shirt again. Managers have really effected Davies but I still think he could turn out ok, McCarthy I see as a Gueye type, so your right no real attacking threat from them 3.

Cant see anything that suggests davies is good enough, if McCarthy isnt shot and gets fit id want to see him and gueye behind Gomes as our midfield.
More energy less chance of teams walking through our midfield.

 

[moyes cardy]

For me there is no style of play from getting out wide and crossing to no one, defensively changing CB every other week is like zonal marking - madness. Nothing worse than a manager who doesnt know what or who he wants.

We would probably miss him...

It would get to Conte if Pickford was standing in front of him.

 

[Greengrass]

How can you stick money on a bet if you give the ticket away you idiot?

Just sold it 1 hour ago for face value. Might get 3/1 on a Huddersfield win. WIN WIN situation. If Everton win HAPPY! If Huddersfield win HAPPY ! Get it ?

 

[Woolverhampton_Blue]

Luck has nothing to do with it.

I suspect it is nothing to do with luck. All the games under the VAR (bar two) featuring a Premier League top six club is not a coincidence in how they choose.

Certainly looks a bit sketchy in that case!

 

[coltefc]

Everton fan mate?

Saw the online footage and apparently, it was mate, coach windows smashed in aswell

 

[zook]

Just watch West Ham put away Wimbledon like a proper Premiership team.

Not like our set of clueless cowards.

See they're doing a great job of that.

 

[Jreverton1]

Defo has to be it,we must be running over a black cat every day,i never get the players,boss,coaches etc cant see what us the fans see,or just dont want to think the fans are right

I feel sorry for my 2 sons, they have no choice to support e Ett

Loads of games had VAR mate, we'd have had atleast one Pen probably two, and they would have had a goal chalked off.

Look, all Prem teams bar us have it, no wonder the BBC fancied us for an upset, on TV and no VAR.

Why don't all games have VAR in the cup? I thought they all did or all didn't.
