When that ball fell to Calvert Lewin though, just for a second I thought a season's worth of frustration was about to burst out in one moment of wild celebration. Then he did whatever the hell it was he did and I kicked the seat in front of me and gave myself a bruise that feels pretty painful two days later. My life supporting Everton encapsulated in 5 seconds.
It’s the nadir of Everton, rather than actually slumping into relegation they’ve regressed to being the most boring team in the footballing pyramid. The worst style of football, embarrassed by the top 6, barely a win away, dull formulaic wins over the bottom 13 at home, no last minute winners, no exciting games, just pure boredom.
It’s what the club has been threatening for a while and now it’s come to pass. The trends have all been there, longer and longer without an away derby win, longer and longer without any derby win, longer without an away win v top 6, now that’s passed to the home form too, now even just winning away is becoming a difficult task.
Just think that even Pardews West Brom won a cup tie at Anfield 3-1 that could have been 5.
Mindsets are so ingrained at Everton that only a sweep from top to bottom will cure it but we seem to say it every season and every season the trends get worse and worse.
Very true. Your post prompted me to try and think of one game this season where I left the ground reasonably satisfied with a game of football, the only game that gets close is West Ham.Can't argue with that article. Since we are currently on 41 points with 5 left to play I could see us winning 2 of them and ending on 47 points, the exact same points total in the 2 failed Martinez seasons.
Yet in those Martinez seasons:
2014/15: Wolfsburg (H) - won 4-1, Wolfsburg (A) - won 2-0, Young Boys (A) - won 4-1, Man United (H) - won 3-0
2015/16: Got to 2 semi finals
This season has been one of the most disappointing in years, with no stand out games. That's not to try and make out the other 2 were any good as they were dire as well, but at least there was the odd good game for the fans to enjoy.
Like he's blaming the whole season on DCLs derby miss. King would go diwn well in here.Bit unfair on DCL imo
Remember we were embarrassingly rubbish for 70 minutes

Dire return for over £500 rips of hope.

Not really,he’s just saying it was a missed opportunity and it was. DCL has been a decent player this year and will only get better, but he had the opportunity to do an Andy King and didn’t take it...and it probably does sum up this whole cretinous season.
I still find it hard to either believe or accept that somehow we have Sam Allardyce, Sam bleeding Allardyce, as our manager.........
Bit unfair on DCL imo
