Match Thread Everton v Man City - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Parker]

What I don't get is that a lot of you who want Everton to lose are hoping it's a heavy thrashing. 0-1 to a late offside goal when we've done our best would
achieve the same thing, and those of you who are sweating the rs banter could have pride in the club you say you support. What about 'We don't care
what the red $hite say'. How fake is that?

A plucky 3-2 loss would suit me fine. I just don't want this to be the game the gang of flappers suddenly develop a backbone.

As for the song, the inclusion of "we don't care what the red side say" is counter productive as it proves we are arsed enough to include it in one of our songs. I'm not particularly fond of that song tbh.

I sickens me to see how many want us to lose this. You all deserve us to never recover and get relegated. Despite the unlikelihood, imagine if we lose tomorrow and end up going down by one point? In 53 years as an Evertonian I have NEVER wanted anything other than an Everton win.

Totally agree with this. All who want us to lose are not born to be blue so [Poor language removed] off to a glory team like city United or the red [Poor language removed]

In other words we are as bad as them? How about rising above it?

Nah rather see us help them slip up again

 

[Bernard]

I can never bring myself to want us to lose no matter what might happen as a result. That is my heart talking but sadly my brain says we will lose and just have to hope it is not a thrashing.

Win win game. In fact a thumping loss 5 - 0 say, would I think force the team to play out of their skins and make a win more likely next weekend. I'm a glass half full guy

 

[Big Fat Sam]

Humiliating defeat, hopefully Premier League record 10-0, Silva sacked five minutes after game = perfect.

I've got a feeling some of you will celebrate us scoring a goal tomorrow night

oh behave lad. obviously not from Liverpool are you

if you was you'd understand why the majority of us absolutely detest the rats and would do anything for them not to win the league ( even if it means us getting beat ) the game literally has no relevance to us. were not going down and were not going to finish in the top 7

I hope you get a last minute dodgey offiside/pen to make it even sweeter for the rats across the park

A 1-0 win will do , please . No need to humiliate us . We’ll even throw on that black cat for the entertainment value

 

[streeky]

Think we are all agreed we need to see a performance from our team but if a spawny last minute pen was awarded we wouldn’t get bent out of shape.

it's a completely meaningless game for us. I couldn't care less if we get hammered. I doubt i'll even watch it.

 

[deipnosophist]

Our lion hearts have made us all very proud this season with their derring-do, ne’er say die approach to the game...(not to mention no little scintillating skill)...however, I fear this game might be a little beyond us.
But don’t get down if we do happen to lose. This giant club of ours (champions 11 times!!) is on the up and up. Rome wasn’t built in a day and I have great faith that Farhad and Blue Bill have both been to Rome sometime in the recent past.
Whatever the case, I’m really looking forward to again visiting Rome myself. It’s one of my favourite cities...

 

[LocalNative]

Not watching the match tomorrow as I genuinely don't want to win and that's absolutely mental. I cannot believe I'm saying that.

 

[Sharpattack]

I really want us to win this, regardless of where the title is heading. We need the points!
